Juane Vermaak

To whom it may concern, My name is Juane Vermaak, and I would like to express my interest in the roll that your company currently has to offer. I have lived abroad (Australia) where I have attended to an online learning platform and received two Certificates in Office Practices and Introduction to Law and Legal Terminology. In my 3.5 years in Australia, I have gained experience in a fast-paced legal and financial environment. For two years, I was employed as an Office Administrator/ Legal Clerk at a wellknown Business Law Firm in Newcastle (Australia). In this well- diverse role I had a lot of responsibilities that started with assisting in legal matters all the way to basic accounting and bookkeeping, such as managing and overseeing our firm's trust account. I have experience in drafting legal documents relating to Wills and Estate planning, Employment Contracts, Legal Advice letters, drafting Statements of Claim and Affidavits and filing/ presenting legal evidence in the local court. Part of my daily responsibilities also included managing our firm's trust account, tracking incoming and outgoing payments, reconciling the accounts and basic bookkeeping of the accounts. I was also in charge of invoicing our clients and chasing debts where necessary. Further to my role at Butlers Business Lawyers, I assisted in drafting the correspondence for annual Superannuation Audits and Legal Trust Examinations. I have recently joined an International Software company (bases in Australia) where I am employed as Financial Administrator. Part of my daily duties require me booking travel for our whole Business Unit's employees and managing the Expense Recovery that is charged to our customers for contract related work. I manage and oversee company spend according to budget and I am in charge of basic security systems. On a daily basis, I also encode and maintain customer orders, manage Cost of Sale invoices, preparing the Cost of Sale Maintenance Schedule and Reconciliation and perform other month- end processes while adhering to strict and timely deadlines. More recently, my manager has trusted me with our Accounts Receivable department's duties. I am in charge of all the greater than 30- day debtors, and correspond with our customers when they have enquiries regarding their bills. I also assist with allocation payments against invoiced and offsetting credit where necessary. In my experience, I have gained immaculate attention to detail and have learned how to perform well under pressure and in a very fast and busy work environment. I have learned that working hard and expanding your range of knowledge goes a long way and will contribute to my professional success. I look forward to hearing from you. Kind regards, Juane Vermaak
