Bookkeeper & Administrative Coordinator
Assist World · Remote, South Africa
About The Role
We are looking for a detail-oriented and organized professional to join our team. This role is a hybrid of bookkeeping (70%) and light administration (30%). The ideal candidate has a solid grasp of accounting principles and enjoys a variety of tasks, from reconciling accounts to ensuring the office runs smoothly.
You are the type of person who finds satisfaction in a perfectly balanced ledger and an organized digital filing system.

- Accounts Payable/Receivable: Process invoices, follow up on outstanding payments, and ensure vendors are paid accurately and on time.
- Bank Reconciliation: Perform monthly reconciliations of bank statements and credit card accounts.
- Payroll Support: Assist with payroll processing and maintain accurate employee records.
- Financial Reporting: Prepare basic monthly financial statements (Profit & Loss, Balance Sheet) for management review.
- Data Entry: Maintain clean and accurate records within our accounting software ([e.g., QuickBooks, Xero, or Sage]).
Administrative Duties
- General Admin: Manage incoming mail, monitor the general company email, and order office supplies as needed.
- Document Management: Organize and maintain digital and physical filing systems to ensure compliance and easy retrieval.
- Communication: Act as a point of contact for clients or vendors regarding billing inquiries or basic administrative questions.
- Special Projects: Assist the team with occasional tasks such as coordinating small meetings or updating internal databases.
Qualifications & Skills
- Experience: 2–3 years of hands-on bookkeeping experience is required.
- Software Savvy: Proficiency in QuickBooks, Xero or Sage and Microsoft Excel (intermediate level).
- Detail-Oriented: An eagle eye for accuracy—you catch the typos and the missing pennies.
- Adaptability: A "no task is too small" attitude. You are comfortable pivoting from financial reports to helping with office logistics.
- Education: An Associate’s degree in Accounting, Finance, or Business Administration is preferred, but equivalent experience is valued.
