RESEARCH FINANCIAL ADMINISTRATOR
Summary
Fluent using Microsoft Office packages and Windows operating systems. I have excellent keyboard skills and use a number of keyboard shortcuts from having used computers extensively during my past positions and my University studies. I have also been on courses in my present role to further my knowledge of Microsoft Word and Excel applications, and recently completed the ECDL course. I am also proficient in a number of network based systems and pick up new systems and changes in procedure quickly.
Organisation: Current position is demanding with a high volume workload. I am able to multi task, have an investigative mind, can prioritise my workload and use my own initiative. This is helped by my excellent memory and attention to detail. I have been on a time management course and have used these skills for my own benefit and to help my team members. Outside of work I organised a travelling trip in the USA, which spanned from Maryland USA to Canada, and organise trips throughout the UK to meet up with old friends.
People skills: My current position in the UK Public Research Support team requires me to liase with Academics and administration/clerical support at all levels. As we deal with all Colleges I have regular contact with a variety of College staff and have built a strong relationship with staff, and through this personal interaction I am highly customer orientated. I attended a Customer Service course which I found very helpful. As well as other areas of Central administration and Finance Office, I am also expected to liase directly with financial departments of Funding bodies. My previous experience in the service industry and at the University has provided me with the solid foundations to build on these skills.
