Key Responsibilities
- Assist in preparing and maintaining financial records, including invoices, receipts, and payment vouchers, ensuring all documentation is accurate and kept up to date.
- Help reconcile bank statements and ledgers by cross-checking entries and flagging discrepancies for senior team members.
- Support the preparation of reports, budgets, or presentations for internal stakeholders using spreadsheet and accounting software.
- Collaborate with different departments to collect data, verify figures, and ensure timely processing of financial transactions.
- Handle confidential information with discretion and ensure that all files and records are stored and organised according to company policy.
- Undertake research and administrative tasks that contribute to process improvement or operational efficiency within the finance function.
- Meet deadlines and manage multiple assignments simultaneously, adjusting priorities as directed by your supervisor.
- Participate in team meetings and contribute to brainstorming sessions when asked, gaining insight into how business decisions are made.
Requirements & Qualifications

- Strong proficiency in computer applications, particularly spreadsheet software, with a high level of technical and digital competence.
- Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to interact professionally with colleagues and external contacts.
- Outstanding organisational abilities and attention to detail, enabling accurate handling of documentation and data.
- Demonstrated integrity, honesty, and confidentiality—especially when dealing with sensitive financial or corporate information.
- Self-motivated and proactive, capable of working independently with minimal supervision while also functioning effectively as part of a team.
- Adaptable and resilient, comfortable with changing priorities, flexible working hours, and occasional travel or after-hours support if required.
- Strong ownership of tasks and a results-driven mindset, with the willingness to learn quickly and take on new challenges.
