I started as Accounts Assistant to the Financial Director but was promoted to Manager of 4 staff in May 05.
I looked after the day to day running of the accounts and payroll of 3 companies. I interviewed and took
on staff and attended and took the minutes of management meetings. I worked closely with a freelance
accountant to produce management and year end accounts. I produced many custom reports on Sage,
MYOB and Excel. I set up the chart of account on MYOB and Sage due to changing over to a different
account package. This role also included purchasing and stock control. During this employment, I
attended many Sage and finance courses.
1990 - 2000 Administrator/Computer Consultant/Database Developer – Systems & Office Support Ltd – Benfleet.
This was my own company that I set up with a freelance accountant and a business man. The aim of
SOS was to provide help to companies with their accounts and computer systems. The accountant taught
me the bookkeeping skills to administer this company and I ran a manual payroll. My client services
included analysing their procedures and developing a database to provide the information they needed for
management accounts. I also got involved in installing a simple network for some of them. Some clients
just wanted extra help with accounts or reports or even being taught how to use new software. These
companies were in publishing, advertising, haulage, manufacturing, security, retail and water
testing/asbestos removal. Vinyl graphics and sign making was another area that I got involved with.
Work dried up when my accountant colleague retired, so I decided to return to full time employment.
1998 - 1990 Secretary/PA and Administrator – Concept Design Ltd – Mechanical Engineers – Wickford/Basildon.
I returned to work part-time after bringing up my children and was Secretary/PA to the Managing Director.

Unfortunately due to a large property purchase just before the recession hit, the company did not survive,
so I decided to set up my own company.
