COVER LETTER FOR MUTINGWENDE M DARLINGTON I am qualified Chartered Secretary from the Zimbabwe Chapter, having graduated in 2008. I started off my career as a secondary school teacher of Mathematics and Accounting from 1991 to 2003. During my teaching years I developed a passion for accounting theory and derived pleasure from the good pass rate of my students most of whom were able to proceed to university to study accounting further. The success of most of my former students in the private sector created a burning desire in me to join the private sector as well. My dream was fulfilled when I joined Masvingo Brick & Tile (Pty) Ltd, a subsidiary of African Associated Mines where I started off as an Assistant Finance Manager and rose through the ranks to become Finance Manager. In the private sector, particularly when I was Assistant Finance Manager, I got in depth knowledge of all the practicalities of posting in the various books of accounts. Later I became involved in the preparation of both management and financial statements. I developed a strong passion in developing internal control systems that would help in guiding accounting and operational systems of the organisations that I worked for. This has given me deep and diverse experience. I left my once lucrative employment in Zimbabwe after the company I worked for closed due to teething and unrelenting economic woes. Currently I am working for an engineering company in Witbank, Mpumalanga. I strongly believe in shared success. I see team work as a hallmark to organisational growth and success. I saw the advert of your company as a great opportunity for me. I am very confident that I will be able to meet the challenges of the job with ease. I have attached my resume and qualifications for your consideration and scrutiny I am very keen to join a company where I would finish the last ten of my working years helping build a strong team and company to achieve success. Thank you
