As an ambitious Accounting & Finance graduate, I bring strong analytical thinking, a keen eye for detail and a collaborative mindset that’s been honed through both academic work and fast-paced service environments. With a BA (Hons) in Accounting & Finance from the University of Derby, I’ve developed a solid foundation in management accounting, audit and assurance, financial reporting, business taxation and data analysis. I’m proficient in Microsoft Excel (advanced functions, pivot tables, financial modelling), Sage accounting software and key reporting platforms, and I’m comfortable interpreting financial data to support decision-making and drive business performance.
What I bring to the table: Clear, confident communication: whether explaining complex financial concepts, working with a cross-functional team, or delivering customer-facing service.
Teamwork and leadership: from supervising and training staff in a hospitality team environment to working collaboratively in university group projects and achieving shared goals under pressure. Problem-solving and organisation: a proven ability to prioritise tasks effectively in busy environments, spot workflow inefficiencies and propose improvements, and manage time across work, study and extra-curricular commitments.
Growth mindset: I’m eager to apply and expand my finance skill-set in a professional setting — whether in financial analysis, assistant accounting roles or graduate schemes — and to contribute positively to the organisation I join. If you’re looking for a motivated graduate who can combine financial insight with strong interpersonal skills and a flexible, can-do attitude, I’d welcome the opportunity to connect and explore how I can support your team.
Working in bars and restaurants since I was 14 has given me a deep understanding of how businesses need to run to stay alive in competitive markets as well as developed my communication skills to work with a large team across different areas and operate effectively and efficiently
