  • Accounts Receivable: Raise all customer invoices accurately and on-time, ensuring timely collections and reconciliation of receipts
  • Vendor & Customer Relations: Proactively engage with stakeholders to respond to queries and resolve reconciliation discrepancies, fostering clear communication and strong relationships
  • Deliver Insightful Reporting & Analysis: Prepare weekly and monthly reports for business leaders that provide key insights and highlight critical information to support informed decision-making
  • Financial Reconciliation: Assist in reconciling bank transactions and general ledger accounts to maintain up-to-date and accurate financial records
  • Expense Analysis: Support employee expense processing and help identify trends or areas for improvement in reporting and compliance
  • Process Improvement: Collaborate with the finance team and the wider company to unlock efficiencies and recommend solutions to improve finance processes and tools



Skills & Experience Required

  • Proficiency in Microsoft Excel; familiarity with financial software such as NetSuite is a plus
  • High attention to detail and a commitment to accuracy in data and reporting
  • Excellent verbal and written communication skills
  • A proactive, team-oriented mindset with a willingness to learn and take initiative
  • Ideally a graduate in Finance, Accounting, or a related field



Benefits
