Job Description

  • Strong attention to detail and ability to work both independently and collaboratively.
  • Good communication skills.
  • Can keep up with a fast-paced environment, and meet tight deadlines and targets.
  • Prior experience in reading financial statements and proficiency in excel are huge pluses!
