Dear Sir / Madam,

Re: Accountant

It is with great enthusiasm that I forward my application for the position

of Accountant as it is a good match for my skills and experience. I am

able to offer your client the opportunity of hiring a person with an

excellent attitude and work ethic, and a commitment to delivering real

value to the company. I view this as a significant opportunity as I am keen

to continue my career in Accounting.

My relevant skills and experience are as follows:

> Bachelor of Accounting with necessary experience working in similar

positions in high volume invoice processing, payments processing, bank

and debtor/creditor reconciliation experience.

Accounts Payable/Receivable position.

> Highly professional and outstanding customer service skills with

extensive knowledge in accounting.

I am a quick leaner with positive and flexible attitude, strong focus and

outstanding manner. I am hard working and very dedicated professional, and

would give my all to your client.
