It is important to provide specifics if you have them available, for example, "I redesigned the accounts payable system, which led to and 50% increase in the efficiency of our system" or "I processed over 3000 check requests in less than three weeks which totaled 90,000 in accounts payable."

I managed my market's country specifics to be compatible with the general accounting procedure. My previous colleagues did not follow these general procedures which caused many conflicts with vendors. After changing procedures, the daily workload was decreased and we reached a healthy state. Feedback from my executives was positive. I am willing to bring the same standards to your company as well.
