Dear Sir/Madam

 

 

ZETHU MTATI: APPLICATION FOR 

 

I am writing to apply for the advertised position. I am studying towards a BCOMPT in Financial Accounting and I am left with one module to complete the degree.

 

Until March 2013 I held the position of Bookkeeper for La Rosa Spanish Dance Theatre.  The position came to an end due to lack of funding for the Arts NPO organisation. My passion for Finance was discovered while working there and later enrolled at UNISA to study it. I have a working understanding of basic financial management procedures and accounting principles. I have critical thinking abilities required to foresee challenges and information needs. In addition, I have proficiency in Microsoft and Pastel Accounting Software.

Since then, I have worked in the Arts and Literacy fields, two other great passions of mine.

This opportunity has caught my attention and I believe that my experiences, both personal and professional, would make me a very competitive candidate for this position. The key strength that I possess for success in this position including the ability to communicate effectively, experience in financial management, compiling annual budgets and willingness to take initiative in learning new skills and utilizing new software. I strive for excellence in every task that I perform and have the ability to retain confidential information with respect and discretion.

 

I would like to meet with you to discuss the contribution that I could bring to the organization as a passionate and dependable applicant. In the interim, you can reach me at 061 9727 327 or at zethumtati@gmail.com.

 

Thank you for your time and consideration. I look forward to hearing from you soon.

 

Sincerely,

 

Zethu Mtati
