Subject: Assistant Controller Position
I am interested in applying for the assistant controller position. I have 10 plus years of progressive accounting experience which includes management. I have experience in the following positions: general accounting supervisor, assistant controller, and controller. In addition I have direct experience in multi-location accounting (300 plus locations), conversions, and software implementations.
My experience includes working with general managers, and branch personnel at all levels. My education includes a BBA in Accounting and a MBA in Business. In addition, I am pursuing a CPA certification.
In my past work experience I have successfully transitioned companies to new soft wares which includes establishing new processes. In one company financials had not been generated in five months with my assistance, this issue was resolved.
Thank you in advance for consideration.
