Being part of their accounting team as an Assistant Management Accountant, I played a vital role in supporting the finance team with multiple accounting duties efficiently including month end accounts preparation, financial reporting, balance sheet reconciliations such as accruals and prepayments, journal postings to the general ledger, management of the fixed asset register and accounts receivable and payable duties. Using various accounting software, like Xero has enabled me to perform and oversee accounts receivable transactions such as invoice issuance and payment receiving and processing. Part of my role was to handle the company's expenses and manage the accounts payable processing, including accurate data entry of invoices in the accounting system and administering payments for approval. As the Assistant Management Accountant, I kept maintenance of the fixed asset register including posting to the correct codes and running depreciation and reviewing and submitting the quarterly VAT returns to HMRC. I worked together with the finance manager to directly report financial account information, reviewing the income statement and ensuring transactions are posted to the correct nominal codes. In conclusion, I was also liable for processing and issuing monthly payroll of UK and US employees, ensuring they will get the correct amount of their earnings and the designated date.
