The posting

BP3 is looking for a fully qualified, hands-on Senior Financial Accountant to own the general ledger and month-end close in a multi-currency environment. You'll prepare and post journals, maintain audit-ready balance sheet reconciliations, and take first-level review responsibility for the work of our AP Specialist - reporting into the Financial Controller. This is an execution-focused role for someone who is comfortable working hands-on in the ledger, not just reviewing from a distance.

Working Hours - South Africa based

Contract Type - Permanent

What you'll be doing

  • Own month-end close for your assigned entities — preparing, posting and reviewing journals (payroll, depreciation, accruals, prepayments and more) against a strict close timetable.
  • Maintain balance sheet reconciliations and supporting schedules to an audit-ready standard, investigating and clearing reconciling items promptly.
  • Review and guide the work of our AP Specialist, including supplier, bank and credit-card reconciliations, coding and cut-off.
  • Prepare and reconcile payroll-related journals and balances, including leave provisions and other employee-related accruals.
  • Maintain the fixed asset register and prepayment/amortisation schedules.
  • Manage intercompany balances and multi-currency / revaluation processes across the Group.
  • Support VAT and statutory accounting requirements across our Netherlands, USA, Portugal and UK entities, working with external advisers where needed.

Requirements

  • Fully qualified accountant — CA(SA), ACCA, CIMA or equivalent.
  • 4+ years post-qualification / post-articles experience in financial accounting, ideally in a commercial, multi-entity environment.
  • Hands-on experience with month-end journals, general ledger accounting and balance sheet reconciliations.
  • NetSuite experience highly advantageous (or a comparable multi-entity ERP); strong Excel skills.
  • Experience reviewing the work of a bookkeeper or AP team member is a plus.
  • A detail-oriented, self-sufficient operator who can manage recurring deadlines, question unsupported numbers, and communicate clearly and concisely.

Benefits

  • Remote Working
  • Flexible working
  • 20 days of annual leave
  • Birthday leave
  • Religious leave

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
