At my current workplace, I initiated improvements to the cessation of staff processes. We encountered challenges related to notifications and the accuracy of cessation procedures. To address this, I introduced a solution guideline that documented every step required for proper cessation procedures. It also outlined the individuals who needed to be contacted for specific steps or for handling exceptional cases. The implementation of this guideline has resulted in a more efficient and error-free cessation process. Although further automation improvements are being considered, this change has already yielded substantial benefits.

Confident user of large ERP systems.
I am a confident user of large ERP systems, with a proven track record of leveraging my expertise in system customisation and development to enhance business operations. An illustrative example of my proficiency in this area is when I took the initiative to collaborate closely with our IT department. Recognising the need for a more efficient and tailored solution, I assumed a leadership role in the development of a front-end computer program. This program was specifically designed to optimise our everyday business functionalities and processes within our ERP system.
After collaborating closely with our IT department to develop this customised front-end program, I recognised the importance of ensuring its seamless integration into our daily operations. To achieve this, I took on the responsibility of training a team of four staff members, providing them with comprehensive insights into the intricacies of the Ailii system. Through tailored training sessions, I equipped them with the knowledge and skills needed to navigate and utilise the system effectively. This training phase was essential in preparing our team to fully embrace the new tool.
I oversaw the entire implementation process, meticulously guiding the team through the transition period. This involved not only the technical aspects but also the establishment of standardised operating procedures that would maximise the benefits of the Ailii system. I ensured that the team seamlessly adopted the new system, and I continuously monitored its performance, making necessary adjustments to improve efficiency.
Through this comprehensive approach to system implementation and training, I successfully integrated the Ailii system into our daily operations, ultimately enhancing our business functionalities and processes. This experience reaffirmed my commitment to driving positive changes within the organisation and my ability to empower and guide teams through technological advancements. My involvement in this project not only demonstrated my confidence in working with large ERP systems but also showcased my ability to understand the unique needs of our organisation. Through effective collaboration with the IT team, I ensured that the program addressed our specific requirements and streamlined our operations.

In my role as a Finance and Administration Manager at Jones Fruit and Vegetables Pty Ltd, I was responsible for overseeing accounts receivable and general ledger activities. I effectively managed and utilised accounting software systems to handle invoicing, payment processing, and reconciliation tasks. This hands-on experience allowed me to develop a deep understanding of these software systems' capabilities and intricacies.

I am capable of troubleshooting issues, optimising system configurations, and generating meaningful reports to support informed decision-making. My sound knowledge of accounting software systems, particularly in the areas of accounts receivable and general ledger, enables me to contribute effectively to financial operations and maintain the integrity of financial data. I demonstrated a keen eye for operational improvements by thoroughly assessing our existing processes and workflows. This analysis allowed me to identify bottlenecks and areas where communication and collaboration were lacking.
Subsequently, I conceptualised and executed innovative operational systems designed to address these shortcomings. These systems not only improved the flow of information but also fostered better collaboration among team members and departments. As a result, efficiency levels saw a significant boost, enabling the organisation to operate seamlessly and respond more effectively to business demands. The implementation of these systems exemplified my ability to strategically enhance operational efficiency.
