Friday, October 30, 2026

Johannesburg, South Africa

Salary:

500000 Annually

SUMMARY:
Debits, credits and a little more ambition. If you know your way around the numbers, it's time they took you somewhere.

POSITION INFO:
A manufacturing business needs more than someone who can keep its books tidy. It needs a Financial Accountant who can take ownership of the numbers, question what doesn't add up and keep the financial function sharp from month-end to management reporting.

This is your chance to step into a role where the detail matters, the numbers have a commercial purpose and your accounting expertise gets put to work beyond the ledger.

What will keep you busy?

Take charge of month-end close, journals, reconciliations and general ledger accuracy, no loose ends.
Turn financial data into management accounts, reporting and analysis that give decision-makers something useful to work with.
Keep a close eye on cash flow, budgets, forecasts and financial performance.
Handle tax, statutory compliance and audit requirements while keeping financial controls firmly in place.

What you need to bring to the table

BCom Accounting
3–5 years’ experience in a Financial Accountant or similar role, preferably within manufacturing.
Working knowledge of Pastel and/or Sage accounting systems.
Advanced Excel skills, strong financial reporting ability and the confidence to own your numbers.

I specialise in recruiting Financial Accountants, Management Accountants, Cost Accountants and Finance Managers across Manufacturing, FMCG, Engineering and Industrial sectors.
