-
Supporting the production of quarterly management accounts, including accruals and prepayments, in collaboration with the Chair of the Finance Committee
-
Ensuring all Sage accounts are fully reconciled at year-end for auditor submission, and liaising with auditors throughout the audit process
What we're looking for
-
Solid bookkeeping experience, whether employed, freelance, or returned after a career break
-
Working knowledge of Sage accounting software
-
Organised, reliable, and comfortable working with a small team
-
An interest in supporting a local charitable organisation
