I am writing in reply to the classified ad you posted on career website seeking to fill the position advertised. I'm currently working under contract (2 weeks notice) as a treasury accountant for Edcon Limited which is closing gates as a result of Covid19 financial difficulties. Having gained Bachelor of Commerce degree in University of Johannesburg (UJ), I understand the importance of personal value ethics, professional due care and program planning. I have also experienced, first-hand, the comforting effect of being able to contact an adviser who genuinely cares for the professional growth and success of students. I’m currently employed as an Assistant Treasury Accountant at Edcon Limited. I previously worked as Financial Controller in property valuation and assets also under Edcon Ltd. I’ve gained experience articles having worked for SizweNtsaluba VSP Inc. (now Grant Thornton) as a senior trainee accountant under South African Institute of Chartered Accountants (SAICA) three year training contract. My career in accounting and auditing started on 02 January 2007 after finishing my three year full time degree with UJ (formerly Rand Afrikaans University). My work entailed helping audit engagement partner to express his opinion on given assignment (risk management) by collecting adequate audit evidence, documenting it and presenting it to the audit manager guided by International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) and International Standards of Auditing (ISA). I’ve been based in Johannesburg since 2001. I believe that both my educational background in B Comm and my work-related duties of assistant accountant and audit senior qualifies me for consideration for the position offered. I look forward to discussing how my skills can be of value to your entity. Thank you for your time, consideration, and forthcoming response. Sincerely, Sandile Macrite Msomi (Mr.)
