Original source description
We are looking for an experienced and dependable Accountant to join our team.
This role is particularly suited to an accountant who has worked in a construction, engineering, procurement or EPC environment and understands that project accounting requires more than keeping financial records.
You should be comfortable working with project teams, monitoring costs, reviewing supplier and contractor payments, and ensuring that financial activities are properly documented and controlled.
Key Responsibilities
- Manage the company’s day to day accounting activities and ensure financial records are accurate and up to date.
- Monitor project related expenses and ensure costs are properly captured and allocated.
- Prepare and review financial reports, reconciliations, schedules and project accounts.
- Review invoices, purchase orders, payment requests and supporting documents before payments are processed.
- Work closely with the Procurement, Engineering, Projects and Operations teams to maintain proper financial controls.
- Track project expenditure against approved budgets and investigate significant variances.
- Manage accounts payable, accounts receivable, bank reconciliations and general ledger entries.
- Monitor supplier, contractor and vendor accounts and ensure outstanding balances are properly followed up.
- Support project costing, budgeting, cash flow monitoring and financial forecasting.
- Maintain proper documentation for procurement, construction and project related transactions.
- Assist with month end and year end financial reporting.
- Support internal and external audit processes and provide required financial documentation.
- Ensure accounting activities comply with company policies, applicable accounting standards and statutory requirements.
Requirements
Bachelor's Degree or HND in Accounting, Finance or a related discipline.
Minimum of 4 years of relevant accounting experience.
Must have practical experience in EPC, construction, engineering, procurement or a project based environment.
ICAN, ACCA or other relevant professional qualification will be an advantage.
Good understanding of project accounting, cost control and financial reporting.
Practical knowledge of procurement processes, supplier management and contractor payments.
Strong Microsoft Excel skills and experience using accounting software.
Good analytical and reconciliation skills, with strong attention to detail.
Ability to work effectively with engineers, project managers, procurement personnel, contractors and management.
Ability to work with minimal supervision, meet deadlines and maintain confidentiality.
What we are looking for:
Beyond the qualifications, we are looking for someone who is reliable, organised, commercially aware and confident with numbers.
You should be able to look at a project transaction and understand not just how to record it, but why it matters, how it affects project cost, and whether the supporting documentation and approval process are appropriate.
This is not a role for someone whose experience is limited to routine bookkeeping. We need an accountant who has been exposed to the realities of construction, engineering, procurement and project finance and can work comfortably with different teams to maintain strong financial controls.
