From a young age, I have always strived for excellence in all I do and to avoid mediocrity. I have been fortunate and diligent enough to have faced various professional and academic challenges which have given me the opportunity to cultivate my entrepreneurial mindset and have acquired key abilities along the way such as critical and analytical skills. Being part of the Allan Gray Orbis Foundation, which recognises and develops high impact entrepreneurs, has afforded me the professionalism to always adapt and learn how to be effective in a new environment. One of my strengths is being a learner thus I am energised by the steady and deliberate journey from ignorance to competence. I am constantly aiming to improve myself. I have an aptitude for numbers and attention for detail. One of my biggest goals has always been to make a positive impact in any business environment that I interact with. Being part of your company as a Junior Accountant aligns my passion with this goal. As a result of my passion and discipline, I strongly believe that I would be a valuable addition to the organisation. My experience of being the Accounts Assistant for the Bazique Festival (Jan 2017 - August 2018.) was an opportunity where I applied my technical skills for an organisation such as a music festival and not only was it a great experience, but it was out of my "comfort" zone and required me to work under pressure. I worked as an Accounts Assistant when I was completing my final year of my degree. I had to adapt to a new environment and quickly learn all the important financial aspects of the business and use accounting softwares such as Pastel and Xero I am confident that I can take on the challenges offered by your dynamic company with tenacity. I appreciate your consideration of my application and I look forward to hearing back from you.
