Accountant (General Accounting & Bookkeeping) - EST Hours (Remote)

ISTA Personnel Solutions South Africa is a dynamic and fast-growing BPO company, specializing in providing top-tier operational support to U.S.-based companies. We are not a recruitment agency — we are a dedicated extension of our clients’ teams, delivering high-quality service with precision, efficiency, and a personal touch.

We are seeking an experienced General Accountant with strong general accounting and bookkeeping knowledge to support a U.S.-based outsourced accounting firm. This is not an entry-level role — candidates must have a solid grasp of the full accounting cycle and experience preparing management-level reports. While the role involves some Accounts Payable (AP) responsibilities, the majority of work centers on reconciliations, month-end close, management accounts, and client-facing interaction.
