I'm offering

I am a qualified ACA accountant with over 7 years of experience working in the UK, Australia and the US. Aside from having a strong foundation in technical accounting, tax, and VAT, I see myself as an organised, personable and creative person. I am highly motivated independently but also really enjoy internal collaboration to achieve success.

Having worked both in the audit and accounting services departments of professional services firms, I have significant experience across a range of industries from property to renewable energy infrastructure. I have worked with both large multinational companies and small sole directorships. As such, I have a wide ranging set of skills, from company and VAT registration to multi-entity consolidations.

Aside from technical accounting and tax, I have experience in business modelling and forecasting as well as understanding and assessing internal processes and controls.

Outside of accounting I am also a published research scientist and have a passion for outdoor activities such as climbing and mountain biking.
