Adam Pinkerton

I am writing to express my interest for the Assistant Accountant role. I am currently in my final year of my Bachelor of Commerce Accounting degree (Curtin University). I am keen to begin my career in a role that offers both professional development and career progression.

Concurrently with my studies, I have been working in a boutique accounting firm, gaining skills with bookkeeping and accounting compliance work. In this role, I have developed strong foundational skills in accounts preparation, reconciliations, managing employee payroll, and lodgment of BAS, superannuation and PAYG.

I believe my current experience, strong work ethic and a willingness to learn, the ability to work both independently and as part of a team will make me a strong candidate for joining.

I look forward to hearing from you.
