Arun Rahanu

I am a hardworking 17-year-old with an AAT level 2 qualification and a strong interest in pursuing a career in accounting and finance. Possessing 7 GCSEs, I have developed a solid foundation in numeracy, communication, and analytical skills. Through my studies, I have gained practical experience using Microsoft Excel and accounting software, alongside exposure to real-world accounting scenarios.

I am highly organised, dependable, and able to manage my time effectively. I show effective communication skills, professional conduct, and the ability to work independently using initiative or collaboratively as part of a team. I understand the importance of confidentiality, GDPR compliance and handing sensitive information responsibly.

I am committed to continuous personal and professional development and am seeking an opportunity to further develop my skills within an accounting or finance role.
