Overview
My role involved processing invoices, preparing payruns many other miscellaneous tasks to help out the department. It involved communicating with the whole department, giving me exposure to how a fast-paced finance department operates. It also involved reconciliation and management of key balance sheet codes and preparing the monthly commercial pack
Skills
I have improved on my time management as there were many deadlines to adhere to. I also improved my communication skills as i was constantly communicating with all members of the department. I have learnt many financial skills such as how to accrue and prepay expenses, how to familiarise myself with accounting terminology and how to prepare a monthly balance sheet
Responsibilities
Yes i was given a lot of responsibility throughout my placement year. which made me feel valued at the company and made me feel like the work i was doing made an impact on the company as a whole. This further encouraged me to complete my work at a high standard
