Dear Sir/Madam,

In referring to your available post, I would like to have the opportunity to apply for that position which may be a challenge to utilize my skills and twenty three years of experience to advanced, gain more experience, and a career point to me.

I was graduated with a Bachelor Degree of science concentrating in accounting in 1992 from New Jersey City University, USA. I am a member of Liberty Board of Realtors. I am bilingual English and Arabic American citizen.

While going for my bachelor of science, I had the opportunity to work in HSBC Bank, New York and Cold Well Banker Realtors. These positions gave me the chance to gain a strong experience in computer Soft/Hardware, full training in bank products & reconciliation, voucher system, A/R, A/P, loans, mortgages and internal auditing.

Working as an Assistant Manger, Duties include supervising operation staff processing Commercial/Standby Letters of Credit and preparing G/L.

I also, had the chance to work for Commerzbank AG, New York, Operation Trade Finance Department. That position exposed me to accounting system, auditing procedure, field observation, and developing independent working attitude with analytic skill.

Most of my corporate accounting, loans, syndication/participation I gained while I was working in Credit Suisse as senior analyst. I was more working independent with new clients and lawyers, negotiating new syndication/participation and loans, enhanced my LIQ skills, tested a new SWIFT system (Merva) and have supervised a team to clear up and reconcile more than 20,000 transaction in backed up incoming fees for outstanding syndication/participation deals and loans. I prepare all deal/facility creation/input instructions on all new or amended credit lines recorded, communicate with the Loan Officer and Agent Bank on deficiencies and attempt to rectify, responsible for verifying work and investigating and resolving work items, prepare monthly performance reports (New deals and loans, outstanding collateral on fully collateralized deals, interest payments on booked certificate of deposits, past due fees…etc). Develop procedures, guidelines for new deals and loans. Respond to internal and external audit observations. Review and post clients financial statements in the interlink. Review and comments on the new credit agreements for new deals and loans.

I would appreciate the opportunity to have an interview. I would not mind a position that requires frequent traveling. Thank You.
