Summary

I am a 20-year-old highly motivated and determined second-year student at Manchester Metropolitan University and I am on track to achieve a first in accounting and finance. I have extensive accounting and finance experience; I can work at a high level in a short amount of time because of my time management and attention to detail skills. I have good leadership skills and can lead others in a group and delegate roles ensuring the work is done to a high level. I can apply a range of technical, digital and other professional capabilities to deliver quality and value. I have excellent Microsoft Excel and Sage skills that I can apply to new job roles. Therefore, I can engage productively in the digital world and can always develop my technical depth.
