Edit Szilagyi – Sales Representative, Administrative Assistant

Hello, my name is Edit, originally from Hungary. I pretty much spent my childhood in a chair next to Brigi’s (I honestly do remember her name), the Assistant’s chair in my Father’s office, listening to grown-ups talking about business, then looking up at her computer, wondering about all those numbers. I wanted to be like my Father, and that has shaped my career – from gaining a certificate as an IT Statistician and Economic Planner, then a Bachelor Degree in Finance and Accounting, to working for companies of all sizes abroad (USA, China, Australia) and at home to expand my knowledge.

I worked abroad to learn English in the United States where I was able to become fluent for future career possibilities. In addition, my study abroad experience in Business in China gave me new skills to use in the workforce like adaptability, problem-solving and cultural awareness. After studying in China, I moved back home to finish my studies and I worked full-time as a Revenue Officer, where I realised that I love two things: finance and travel. Therefore, I could not sit still. I later on moved to Australia. Due to the pandemic crisis, I had to be resourceful and eventually became a Virtual Assistant.

With 6 years of experience in finance, IT and administration, I have been able to excel in jobs – from being a Reporting Associate to a Revenue Officer. In each position, administrative duties, data processing and collecting took a big part of the jobs, so good written and communication skills, to meet deadlines and high level of concentration were essential. While I was a Revenue Officer I gained experience creating expense reports, financial plans and cash- flow statements for the management, managing bank accounts and handling business transactions. I learned to work accurately under pressure, independently or within a team. I have the relevant knowledge to provide support to you and your business by being your committed and professional Virtual Assistant.

I understand that you no longer have time to attend to the mundane duties of life – let me take that stress off your shoulders!

I’m a quick learner and focused person, meaning when I take a project I dedicate my full attention to it and its deadline. I believe in providing quick and top quality services with sincerity and honesty. Also, I have a good sense of humour, get along with people easily and I like to help others to reach their goals. Please get in touch, it would be an honour to work with you on your short- or long-term projects!
