Summary
I am skilled in Payroll and Accounts payable/receivable roles with in the meat industry. From beginning in the role of accounts receivable for seven years before moving up to the role of accounts payable and finally adding the payroll to my accounts payable role from 2020.
I use the accounting system Attache` on a daily basis for these roles along with Synerion & Foodchain.
I have worked with my current employer for over 14 years. And over those years have gained experience in payroll and both sides of the accounts roles as well as little bits and pieces of other positions at this company whether it is reception work or helping the HR manager with tasks when needed.
I am very efficient with my work I like to structure my daily/weekly tasks in a way that ensures they are completed on time. I have also gained team work and customer service skills from my five years at KFC prior to my current position
