Job description

Cloud Accountant at Fynbos Accounting

We are a growing, modern accounting firm currently comprised of a team of twenty-seven.

We are a remote-first firm which means we do not have permanent office space, so you would need to be comfortable working from home - or where ever you prefer.

Our mission is to provide a premium service to our clients through compliance, financial visibility and industry insights; to create freedom of time and location for our staff, and to train them to be the best accountants in the industry.

What we do

We provide a premium, full-suite, outsourced accounting function to SME's.

This includes bookkeeping, compliance, payroll, software integration, regular client meetings, and advisory.

We only work with retainer clients whom we service on a monthly basis.

Your role

We are looking for a SAIPA registered accountant who has completed their articles at a professional services firm, who has at least two years of post articles experience at a professional service firm.

You will be responsible for all of the following functions for a portfolio of 4 to 8 clients:

  • Bookkeeping (Reconciling all transactions in Xero, passing all required manual journals in Xero, maintaining the Fixed Asset Register in Xero, reviewing the balance sheet and profit or loss, using Receipt Bank to capture supplier bills and push them through to Xero, creating a monthly management pack to send to the client)
  • Client Meetings (meeting with the clients via MS Teams on a monthly basis to touch base on their management accounts and address any queries that they might have).
  • Maintaining the client relationship (this is very important to us, you must be comfortable to be client facing, you must be able to do your own problem-solving - in the context of still having a team you can reach out to and brainstorm problems with)
  • Annual Financial Statements (preparing AFS in Draftworx Cloud)
  • Payroll reconciliations from the payroll system to the Xero
  • VAT (submitting VAT201s)
  • Income Tax (submitting Income Tax and Provisional Tax returns for companies and their directors)
  • Ad hoc client requests
  • Creditor recons, debtor recons, payroll recons, fixed asset register recons, balance sheet recons, all other recons to make sure the client accounts are up to date and relevant.
  • Tax advice to clients with regards to the tax effects of basics and more advanced transactions that they encounter (Income Tax, Payroll Taxes, VAT, Dividend Taxes etc.)

You will be responsible for the full financial function of your clients. This way you will have the full context for each of your client's accounts. It means that the client has a single point of call, and that the accounts are accurate and seamless because they are prepared in full by one qualified accountant - you.

Our culture is one of freedom, ownership, communication and growth.

If this sounds like you, we look forward to meeting you.
