Accounting and Finance Technician

I am Jimena Alvarado Álvarez, an Accounting and Finance Technician currently working as an Accounting Assistant at Elvatron in San José, Costa Rica. I have gained valuable experience in accounting through various roles, including internships and receptionist positions, which have helped me develop a well-rounded skill set in finance and customer service. My responsibilities have ranged from accounts payable invoicing and payroll support to managing fixed assets and conducting audits.

Throughout my career, I have demonstrated strong organizational skills by maintaining document filing systems and supporting accounting departments with invoicing, inventory records, and financial statements. I am proficient in handling bank reconciliations and travel expense settlements, and I also support building maintenance activities.

I am currently pursuing a Diploma in Accounting and Finance at Universidad Técnica Nacional (UTN), which complements my technical background and practical experience. I also hold a High School Diploma and a qualification as an Accounting and Finance Technician from CTP Jesús Ocaña Rojas.

My technical skills include proficiency in Excel, Word, PowerPoint, and Power BI, which I use to enhance reporting and data analysis in my accounting tasks. I am also developing my English language skills, currently at an A2 level.

I am a responsible and initiative-driven professional who values teamwork and effective communication. I am eager to continue growing in the accounting and finance field, contributing to organizational success through diligent financial management and support.
