I am willing to go the extra mile

I started my financial career in 1998 with The Reserve Bank of South Africa as a teller where I learned the skill and importance of accuracy. I left The Reserve bank to be a full time mother until 2004 when I felt the need to prolong my career again. I joined Superb Uniwell Systems in 2004 as a sales representative and was later promoted to Administration & Finances. I gained experience in:  Customer Service  Debtors & Creditors (Invoicing, Quotations, Debt Collection, Payments to Creditors)  Sales & Marketing  Procurement & Stock  Petty cash  Reconciliation  Filing  Capturing invoices  Attending to queries I left Superb Uniwell in Feb 2011 due to an opportunity to further my career prospects with G4S Secure Solutions as an Accounts Payable Clerk. I am a hardworking, target driven individual who is looking to extend and improve my financial experience.

Pros: I need to further my career
Cons: Willing to work overtime if rewarded

Bad learning

I've struggling by transport everyday from home to work and the salary is too small for me. And I'm working long hours and I work 13 days without off and at our workplace is not good because I'm working outside and there is no shelter even a guard room,and even if is raining we use umbrellas and raincoat.

Pros: Not good and since I started to work there is no promotion
Cons: Long working hours
