Summary

I have gained solid reconciliations experience throughout my career in investment banking, initially working within the back office, moving through IT development and customer support of the automated vendor reconciliation tool intelliMATCH. Working for both vendor and client and having this blend of operational and technical experience, gives me a good platform to understand the importance and development of best practices, database/application performance and supportability. Recently this has been an aspect which has formed part of every role I have undertaken.
My relocation to France, Ireland and now Wales gave me an opportunity to look at and solve problems in a much more creative way, allowing me to adapt more easily to find solutions.
I possess good communication skills, am adaptable, curious and have an analytical mind and strong values. I am practical, organised, like working in teams and am a self-starter who enjoys using my experience to help others.
