Where does this role fit in?
The Junior Accountant role sits within our dynamic Finance department, reporting into our Team Leader, Financial Reporting. This isn't just a reconciliation job; you'll be a critical link in our financial ecosystem, stepping up from basic bookkeeping to own more complex reconciliations, drive key month-end close tasks, and initiate analytical processes—all under moderate guidance. Your day-to-day will focus on independently managing recurring accounting activities and meticulously reviewing expense data across our various systems. By mastering how our financial systems connect, you'll be instrumental in guaranteeing the accuracy and integrity of the data that powers our management reporting and strategic decision-making.
This role serves as a foundational step toward the Accountant position, with growth expected in financial analysis, systems expertise, and ownership of broader month-end and reporting responsibilities.
