Your work will directly support the company’s financial health and its ability to stay compliant with FTA regulations.

  • Handle all routine accounting and bookkeeping activities, including recording sales, purchases, expenses, receipts, and payments.

  • Perform regular reconciliations for bank accounts, customer accounts, supplier accounts, and inter-company transactions.
  • Manage the full accounts payable and accounts receivable cycle, including follow-ups and payment processing.
  • Prepare and submit UAE VAT returns in accordance with FTA requirements, and monitor all VAT and Corporate Tax deadlines to ensure on-time filing.
  • Support external audits by preparing financial schedules, compiling supporting documents, and responding to auditors’ queries.
  • Coordinate the annual external audit process, including preparation of financial statements and audit-ready documentation.

Requirements & Qualifications

  • Proven ability to work independently and manage the full accounting cycle without constant supervision.
  • Hands-on experience with bookkeeping, financial reporting, reconciliations, and managing AP/AR.
  • Familiarity with FTA regulations, VAT return preparation, and Corporate Tax filing procedures.
  • Proficiency in accounting software is expected; hands-on experience with QuickBooks is a distinct advantage.
