  • Perform bank reconciliations, supplier reconciliations, and credit card reconciliations.
  • Process supplier invoices, match payments, and allocate receipts.
  • Capture and code expenses through Dext or similar tools.
  • Assist in preparing and submitting VAT workings for review.
  • Support accountants with month‑end processes such as accruals, prepayments, and balance sheet schedules.
  • Maintain organized digital filing systems for all accounting documents.
  • Liaise with clients and suppliers to resolve transaction queries.

Requirements

  • Minimum 2–3 years of bookkeeping or accounting processing experience.
  • Proficiency in Xero (essential) and understanding of its reporting and reconciliation features.
  • Strong understanding of double‑entry bookkeeping and basic accounting principles.
  • Experience using Dext, Hubdoc, or similar data capture tools.
  • Intermediate to advanced Excel skills.
  • Excellent attention to detail and time management.
  • Ability to work independently and meet deadlines in a remote environment.
  • Preferred (Not Essential)

  • Experience working within an accounting practice or multi‑client environment.
  • Exposure to UK VAT, payroll, or financial statement preparation.
  • Familiarity with QuickBooks, Sage, or other accounting systems.
  • What We Offer

  • Supportive and collaborative remote team environment.
  • Ongoing training and development in Xero and UK accounting standards.
  • Exposure to international clients and industries.
  • Competitive salary based on experience and qualifications.
  • Personal Qualities We Are Looking For

  • Ability to develop trusting relationships with clients and colleagues, demonstrating professionalism, reliability, and genuine care.
  • Forward‑thinking approach, keen to challenge the norm and suggest improvements that deliver smarter outcomes.
  • Confidence in owning your work, taking responsibility for quality and accuracy while escalating issues appropriately.
  • Collaborative mindset, contributing to a supportive team culture and sharing knowledge to help colleagues succeed.
  • Desire to support growth, actively building technical expertise while also mentoring more junior team members where appropriate.
  • Organised and proactive, able to manage workloads independently while balancing multiple client commitments.
  • Clear communicator, able to present financial information in a way that builds understanding and trust.
  • Resilient and adaptable, maintaining focus and professionalism when faced with challenges or deadlines.
  • Strong sense of commitment to clients, acting as a dependable part of their extended team and invested in their success.
