Summary


Finance Manager/Management Accountant
I have had a very varied work life; the majority of it spent working in Finance. During my time in fi-
nance, I have worked within the manufacturing sector and public sector gaining knowledge in all as-
pects of accountancy and audit.



Three of my past posts have involved my skills as a manager, managing a maximum of seven people. 



In my post at the LSC I was responsible for the introduction and teaching of a new software program
called 'Galileo'. This is a web-based audit program used by DWP and KPMG. I was also responsible
for most of the IT work within my department.



I am a very adaptable person with an investigative mind and a good organiser. 



I can work well to deadlines and work easily within a team and on my own.
