SUMMARY:

Let’s be honest… numbers don’t lie — but they do need someone who knows how to read between them.

POSITION INFO:

That’s where you come in.

We’re not looking for someone to simply close books and tick boxes.

We’re looking for a Financial Accountant who brings order to the detail, calm to the chaos, and insight to the numbers most people just glance over.

This is a role within a fast-moving environment where finance is deeply connected to how the business actually runs — not just how it reports.

What You’ll Be Responsible For

  • Turning raw financial data into clean, reliable reporting
  • Owning month-end and year-end processes from start to finish
  • Making sense of reconciliations, balances, and variances
  • Keeping VAT, tax, and compliance tight and accurate
  • Supporting budgets and forecasts that actually guide decisions
  • Working closely with operational teams who rely on your numbers
  • Protecting the integrity of the general ledger

WHAT YOU NEED

  • BCom Accounting (or equivalent)
  • SAIPA or SAICA articles completed (essential)
  • 2–3 years post-article experience
  • Strong Excel ability and solid system confidence
  • A strong grip on financial reporting fundamentals
