* During my time with OJK, a small size accountancy firm that specialises in providing accountancy services to clients within the Music, Sports, Broadcast and Social media industries, I had the opportunity to develop my accountancy skills by learning from top professionals and also by starting my studies towards the ACCA qualifications. * The challenging and dynamic environment of the team combined with my determination were crucial to the development of my decision making and prioritising skills, making me very successful in working to tight deadlines. * My main responsibilities were: * Preparation and submission of VAT returns * Bank Reconciliations * Preparation and submission of year-end statutory accounts * Preparation of monthly/quarterly management accounts * Dealing with clients' queries * Providing training and assistance to junior staff * Assisting on a number of statutory external audits
