A Day In The Life Of Irelene Hampton

Many people think accounting is boring. Yes, there are mundane tasks that need to be done monthly like processing cash books, invoicing customer and processing supplier invoices and don't forget the dreaded filing of paperwork and receipts. 

My clients are in diverse industries which makes my daily work interesting. 

In the last week I have assisted in setting up policies and procedures for:

• Sending and receiving stock

• Cash up tills and petty cash in stores

• Staff purchasing and salary deductions

Writing these from a good governance and proper accounting perspective is one thing, now monitoring and amending these processes to make them work practically is an ongoing function.
