Hard working, accurate deadline driven and achieves best results from staff. Enjoys a challenge

My work day is extremely busy and often requires taking work home and working late to meet very tight reporting deadlines for our listed overseas parent company. I believe I get along extremely well with all colleagues and am well respected by them. I like to lead by example and work with the staff to achieve the best out of them. I have learnt to deal with very demanding people. I enjoy a challenge and getting to staff to improve overall performance One of the most challenging aspects of my current job has been to take an organisation which was structured in a very fragmented manner and to restructure into a much simpler streamlined organisation structure leading to savings in personnel and audit costs.

Pros: My CFO is aware I am looking for a longer term position due to reasons below and will provide any references required
Cons: My current firm has a retirement age of 63. I see myself being willing and able to work well beyond that and am looking for a position which will enable this

Great learning opportunity

Processing month end Journals. Prepare and review Balance sheet Recons. Prepare Management Accounts. Submit Statutory rerurns for all companies. Prepare Audit packs and queries. Assist with Budgets. A month is not sufficient to do the reporring function before you know you have reached another month end. My days are filled with loads of reports due to local and international reporting requirements. High level of efficiency is required and meeting deadlines. Disadvantage is two reporting systems.

Pros: Not limited to my job description and learn other areas
Cons: Long working hours and two reporting Accounting systems

Problem solving. Sound dissision making. Focus on teamwork. Happy team happy output

CEO did not lead from the front and was very insulting. Saying words like “I squeeze the blood in your vines and many more more words that break good character…….etc

Pros: Enjoying my job allot because there are challenges that one face daily wereby I have to make sound decisions.
Cons: Long working ours does not bother me. Machine unavailability is a pain in the neck. Also when union discussions comes to deadlock and people does not come to work.
