Bookkeeper - part time

This is a super role for a Book keeper to work 3 full days or 5 part time days, who has experience working for a professional, friendly small to medium size organisation, taking full responsibility for all areas of book keeping.

Though the position is busy it is a part time role. Hours are flexible and can be either 3 full days per week or 5 shorter days to fit in with school and child commitments.

As this is a small organisation flexibility is key, therefore answering the phones and helping with other admin tasks as and when required. This is also an office based role, not hybrid.

Along with book keeping experience you will need to have IT skills and knowledge, ideally with Sage 50, which is used for payroll. A bespoke software package is used for sales order processing, stock control and invoicing though any experience using a similar software package is fine.

Responsibilities include

Payroll Administration: payroll processing, ensuring compliance with tax regulations, employee deductions and ensuring accurate and timely payment.

Sales Ledger: Recording and tracking all incoming sales invoices, issuing and processing customer payments, bank transfers, and credit card payments. Also monitoring customer accounts for overdue payments and following up on outstanding invoices and reconciling the sales ledger.

Purchase Ledger: Recording and processing supplier invoices and payments, ensuring all purchases are documented and reconciled with delivery receipts. Maintaining accurate records of payments made, outstanding balances and looking after vendor queries related to invoices.

Bank Reconciliation: Reconcile bank statements, ensuring all transactions are accurately recorded and discrepancies are resolved.

VAT & Tax Filing: Prepare VAT returns and ensure all tax filings are submitted on time.

As mentioned, this is a very nice position and would suit somebody looking for a small friendly organisation offering flexibility.

The role is available immediately though our client will wait for the right candidate. The salary shown is for 5 days per week.
