Job description

Overview

We’re on the hunt for finance stars who are ready to jump straight in — from newly qualified CAs who cut their teeth in retail to seasoned finance professionals with post-articles experience who can hit the ground running. If words like consolidations, eliminations, and IFRS don’t scare you (and you can tell a clean trial balance from a mile away), we want to talk to you.

What’s on the cards?

A Group Accountant role that’s as dynamic as it is rewarding. You’ll take the reins on:

• Monthly group consolidations and management accounts
• Budgeting, forecasting, and audit prep
• VAT submissions for multiple entities
• Financial reporting, process improvement, and system integrity

You’ll be at the center of the action — collaborating across entities, liaising with auditors, and making sure every number tells a story that adds up.

Qualifications

• CA(SA) or strong accounting graduate with solid consolidation experience
• Sharp with Excel, accurate under pressure, and deadline-driven
• Confident in IFRS and group reporting
• A team player who can work independently and make things happen
• Based in Cape Town and available immediately or on short notice
• If you’ve worked in retail or fast-paced environments, that’s the cherry on top.
