Job Description

Month-end, year-end and audit prep all run through you at an agricultural co-operative in Secunda. This is a good step for someone who wants proper routine and a manager who notices good work.

You'll be based at an agricultural co-operative in Secunda. Living nearby, or on a taxi route to it, really helps.

The work, day to day

  • Prepare monthly management accounts with variance commentary
  • Draft annual financial statements under IFRS or IFRS for SMEs
  • Track stock costing, standard costs and production variances
  • Prepare the audit file and answer auditor queries
  • Review creditors, debtors and payroll journals from the clerks

You'll need

  • Understanding of South African income tax and VAT
  • You meet month-end deadlines without being chased
  • Experience on an ERP such as Sage X3, Sage 300, Syspro or SAP Business One
  • Strong Excel skills, including large data sets and lookups

Helpful, not essential

  • CA(SA) with SAICA, or AGA(SA) or Professional Accountant (SA) with SAIPA
  • Completed articles at an audit firm
  • Consolidation experience across several companies

What's in it for you

  • Study assistance for board exams
  • Hybrid schedule outside month-end week
  • Paid professional body membership fees
  • Performance bonus linked to company results

Applying, step by step

  1. Check you meet the must-haves first; recruiters filter on those before anything else.
  2. Have the following on hand (clear photos on your phone are fine at first): last three payslips, certified degree certificate and full academic record plus a brief sample of a management report with figures removed.
  3. Use the form on this page. It takes about two minutes and you don't need to upload anything yet.
  4. If you're shortlisted you'll hear from us within 6 working days, usually by phone.
