Finance: Our experienced team help manage your research in terms of funding (with the JRES).
Dorota Smith (Finance Officer)
I work Mon-Fri
Since I joined St. George’s in 2005 I have worked in various administrative roles in the University. What I enjoy the most about my job are its versatility of being able to do a variety of tasks, autonomy, teamwork and challenges.
In my current role of a Finance Officer:
I provide support to the research institutes management and staff, and work closely with our professional services (Finance, Accounts Payable, Accounts Receivable, Payroll), Joint Research and Enterprise Services and Research Facilities teams.
I am the primary point of contact for finance-related queries in Research Institutes, which include producing reports (standard, non-standard, commitment, research grants application status), assisting with the closure of research grants, uploading electronic transfer and correction journals, setting up new subproject codes, processing credit notes and invoice requests, investigating account variances, dealing with transaction queries and providing backups, credit card purchases, resolving outstanding finance issues with Payroll, Finance Office, Enterprise Office, JRES and Accounts Receivable, involvement in internal and external audits, currently outsourced BRF work contracts and invoicing, support and advice to the institute’s principal investigators on current and future financial plans as well as preparation of financial year accruals.
