Small Business Accounting & Bookkeeping

I run a growing small business and need an experienced finance assistant/bookkeeper to take charge of our day-to-day numbers so my team can stay focused on operations.

All records are already inside Sage and I’d like to keep using that platform, so deep familiarity with Sage features—bank feeds, reconciliation, payroll modules, and reporting—is essential.

The immediate scope covers three core areas:

• Payroll processing – run accurate, on-time payroll for a staff of under 10, handle statutory deductions and prepare year-end summaries.
• Tax preparation – keep ledgers clean throughout the year, then compile and file the necessary business returns and any supporting schedules.
• Financial reporting – deliver monthly P&L, balance sheet, and cash-flow statements, along with concise commentary I can present to stakeholders.
• Transaction reconciliation - processing bank transactions and receipts
• Invoice preperation - paying suppliers when needed
• General admin - there may be a need for other types of basic admin

This is a full time role.

We’re fully cloud-based, so you’ll access Sage remotely and share reports via a secure drive. I value clear communication and timely turnarounds; typical month-end close should be wrapped up within five business days.

You will need to be fully familiar with English accounting policies and must be able to speak English fluently.

As a small business, we have a good team of A-Players. If you're also a superstar team member we'd love to hear from you. There is a lot of opportunity to develop within the team.

So if you have a solid track record with small businesses and can demonstrate expertise in Sage, payroll compliance, and tax filings, I’d love to review your application.

I am looking to hire ASAP. Apply now.
