Work History

Lead Bookkeeper/Teller

  • As a bookkeeper/teller on the front end, I am responsible for ensuring the accuracy and integrity of daily financial transactions and front-end operations. This role includes managing cash office procedures, reconciling tills, processing safe drops, and preparing bank deposits. I support cashiers and service desk associates by troubleshooting register issues, maintaining secure cash-handling practices, and balancing end-of-day reports. My role requires precision, discretion, and a strong understanding of store systems and financial procedures.
  • Additional key responsibilities include:
  • Effective communication with my supervisors, Loss Prevention, and main office accounting staff about large shortages or errors that have occurred.
  • Investigate and resolve overages, shortages, and discrepancies.
  • Receiving and handling of large lottery orders, money orders, stamps, and money shipments.

Key duties included handling returns and exchanges, processing money orders and Western Union transfers, managing lottery and bill pay services, and assisting with various customer inquiries. I was also accountable for end-of-day procedures such as pulling and reconciling financial reports, closing out registers, and ensuring all transactions complied with store policies. The role required strong communication, attention to detail, multitasking, and a thorough understanding of store systems and financial processes.
