Good communication skills and have ecxellent client service

I have good relationship with my co-worker and also the ones from the other branches. I mostly assist in typing and doing quickbooks and preparing banking when clients come to make payment. I make sure that the clients visiting the branch are well taken cared of and also preparing refreshment and preparing of the boardroom. Handling of stationery and being hands on and willing to learn. I've learned about preparing of financial statements for client, typing and preparing of coinage and sorting of mails, binding and preparing financial statement for client for collection, taking messages and also doing general administrative and clerical duties, housekeeping and dealing with queries from public. I enjoy more when they give me something to do because that help me to learn more about the systems and about the organisation I'm working for. I have 9 years banking experience and client service has always being my priority since I use to work mostly with clients.

Pros: 9 years banking experience
Cons: 8 to 5

Great learning environment

I am currently working at one of the big four accounting firms as a Staff Accountant. On a daily basis my work requires constant and effective communication as we support Audit teams. Calls get assigned where I must then communicate with the Audit team as they are our clients to get an understanding of procedures that they would like me to assist with. My job requires a good relationship with co-workers as we work as a team and work on a open plan. I get along with my co-workers very well. I have learnt a lot at my current job such as no limited to working effectively under pressure while meeting tight deadlines without ever compromising work quality. How to communicate effectively with clients even when they are having a bad day. I have learnt how to work on Audit softwares such as Aura. I enjoy adding value to our clients the most about my job.

Pros: Great learning environment
Cons: Tight deadlines resulting in long hours worked
