Cape Town CBD, South Africa Ca Financial Appointments Full time R250 000 - R400 000 per year

Job Description

Join a well-established and respected financial services group as a Junior Finance Manager, working across multiple entities and high-impact sectors. You'll be part of a professional, close-knit team that values precision, growth, and long-term development offering the chance to build a strong technical finance foundation in a dynamic environment.

 What you will be doing:

You'll be responsible for the internal finance function for two group entities, with a focus on financial control, reporting, and compliance. This role is distinct from the project-facing finance roles and will sit slightly apart due to confidentiality.

Key responsibilities include:

  • Monthly bookkeeping, management accounts, and payroll processing
  • Processing of advanced journals and reconciliations
  • Preparation of budgets, variance analysis, and project expenditure tracking
  • SARS communication and preparation of tax returns (VAT, Company Tax, etc.)
  • Assisting with audits, consolidations, and financial reporting
  • Preparing IFRS for SME-compliant financial statements
  • Liaising directly with the Group Financial Manager
What we are looking for:
  • Newly qualified and registered CA(SA)
  • 1–2 years of post-articles accounting experience
  • Hands-on experience with accounting tools like Xero and Draftworks
  • Familiarity with SARS processes and correspondence
  • Strong attention to detail and analytical thinking
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills
  • Organised, reliable, and able to work with a high level of confidentiality
  • A self-starter who is eager to grow into a senior finance role over time
  • This is an ideal fit for someone looking for a more traditional financial management role within a dynamic, project-based environment
Benefits and unique aspects:
  • Direct mentorship from an experienced Group Financial Manager
  • Growth path into senior finance leadership
  • Exposure to a multi-entity finance structure in a high-impact environment
  • Professional, people-first team culture with a long-term focus

If you haven't heard back from us within two weeks of submitting your application, unfortunately your application has not been successful this time. We'd still love to stay connected, follow us online and keep an eye out for future opportunities that match your profile.
