Accountant – Cape Town
Salary: R50 000 per month

They say accountants never lose their balance, and we’re looking for one who can prove that true.

We’re hiring an Accountant on behalf of a leading financial consultancy specialising in high-performance financial reconciliation and digital finance operations. Their focus is helping global clients achieve financial accuracy, consistency, and clarity, the kind of work where numbers truly tell the story.

This is a great opportunity for someone who thrives on structure, precision, and seeing the bigger picture behind the data. You’ll be responsible for full-cycle accounting, reporting, reconciliations, and supporting process improvements that keep operations running smoothly.

What you’ll do:

  • Manage accounting functions including accounts payable, accounts receivable, and general ledger entries.

  • Prepare monthly reconciliations, financial statements, and management reports.

  • Handle bank reconciliations and resolve discrepancies.

  • Support month-end and year-end close processes.

  • Assist with audits and ensure compliance with internal controls.

What you’ll bring:

  • National Diploma or BCom in Accounting, Finance, or related field.

  • 2-4 years of accounting experience covering AP, AR, and reconciliations.

  • Strong Excel skills (pivot tables, lookups).

  • Excellent attention to detail, analytical ability, and a proactive mindset.

You’ll join a consultancy that values precision, collaboration, and innovation. Your work will directly support financial decision-making at the highest level.

If you’re an accountant who takes pride in accuracy and enjoys a good balance sheet joke, we’d love to hear from you.

Please note: Due to the high volume of applications, only candidates selected for an interview will be contacted. If you do not hear from us within two weeks, please consider your application unsuccessful at this time. We thank you for your interest in the role and wish you the best in your career search.
