My candidate is a certified accounting technician with a degree in business and accounting and over 10 years of experience in accounting and administration roles. They currently work as a management accountant at a technology company, where they handle various financial tasks for multiple entities. They have previously worked in the trades, manufacturing, and chartered accounting industries, where they gained skills in financial reporting, tax filing, payroll, project accounting, and team management. They are proficient in Microsoft Office suites and various accounting software packages, and enjoys problem solving and learning new skills.
