Cover Letter Patricia Owen

To whom it may concern,

I have 12 years extensive experience in financial auditing and banking experience, and 7 years’ experience in financial management.

Throughout my career, I have been involved in projects whereby I start the project, get the necessary people involved, oversee the project to completion and make sure it is a success. I have the ability to see the bigger picture, and still be able to drill down into the finer details.

I am competent in IFRS, and have kept myself updated with all the changes. I attended the SAICA certificate for IFRS in 2015. I have an aptitude for financial accounting, as I obtained a distinction in financial accountancy in matric and in my B.Com Honours.

Whilst working as an assistant manager in auditing, I managed a staff of approximately 14. My staff responded well to my management skills. I am a hands on manager, yet give my staff enough space to do their work on their own and to the best of their capabilities. I like to coach and mentor them.

In banking I have extensive experience in credit risk, project management, treasury, and Basel.

In financial management I have prepared financial statements, maintained accounting records, provided audit reviews of financial statements, prepared payroll for my clients and provided taxation services.

Yours Sincerely,

Patricia Tegan Owen
