Senior Executive Finance Accounts

Daily work would include the below:

•

Verifying of supplier invoices for accuracy based on conditions of calculation, using the company’s ERP software (invoices involve a relatively high level of complexity) and are often large, so complete accuracy is a necessity.

•

Preparation of buyer invoices based on contractual and other values that may include penalties and other deductions as stipulated.

•

Real-time pricing of metals between international brokers and clients, including communication and booking on both ends.

•

Daily bank reconciliations.

•

Bookkeeping entries on ERP software (Oracle) daily.

•

Ensuring ad-hoc journal and bank ledger entries that are not automatically booked via the company’s ERP system are done so correctly.

•

Paying other invoices, and expenses and ensuring monthly statements sent by creditors are verified, booked, and paid on a timely basis.

The candidate must excel at the following skills:

•

A very high level of spoken and written English and mental arithmetic, with an eye for detail in figure work.

•

Strong ability for inbox management - to prioritize and sort email correspondence in line with the Company’s communication protocols.

•

Approachable, polite and friendly even whilst under pressure and heavy work loads – particularly as the existing staff have been with the Company for many years.

•

Integral, a team player to juniors and being able to operate without having the Owner present.

•

Full-time telephone and WhatsApp correspondence with counterparties related to the business (service providers, suppliers, buyers, other parties) on invoicing, payments, etc.

•

Real-time internal communication and coordination of tasks within different areas in the Group (across different time zones - primarily, Middle/East and Africa).

•

A knowledge of metal trading is welcomed but not essential, though one must have a strong drive to learn and grow.

•

Willingness to understand the business in its entirety rather than just one aspect – finance, logistics, operations, sales, relationship management to name a few.

•

Key qualities for the role – accuracy, ability to operate under pressure in a fast-paced work environment with a high level of integrity, and ability to assume ownership and responsibility over the role.
