About this role

Salary: R29 000 - R32 000 per month

Remote Recruitment is hiring a Finance Administrator for a UK employer, fully remote from South Africa.

Role overview

You will keep the ledger clean and month-end on time for a growing UK finance team. It suits someone organised who likes tidy books, clear numbers and a close that lands when it should. You will own the routine work end to end rather than picking up fragments of it.

You will work 09:00-17:00 UK time (11:00-19:00 SAST) from home, with equipment guidance, a proper induction and a manager who is contactable through the day. This is a permanent role, not a short contract.

Key responsibilities

  • Process supplier and customer invoices accurately and on schedule
  • Reconcile bank, supplier and customer accounts each month
  • Maintain the purchase and sales ledgers
  • Prepare month-end reports and support the year-end audit pack
  • Resolve billing and payment queries by email and phone
  • Flag variances and cash-flow risks early to the finance lead
  • What you'll need
  • Two or more years in a finance administration or bookkeeping role
  • Experience with Xero, Sage or QuickBooks
  • Comfortable in Excel with formulas, filters and pivot tables
  • A track record of accurate reconciliations with a clear audit trail
  • Reliable home internet and a quiet space for UK-hours work

Nice to have

  • Familiarity with UK VAT returns
  • Exposure to multi-currency ledgers
  • Experience supporting a month-end close
  • What's on offer

A permanent, fully remote role with a UK employer, a finance team that will back you, and genuine ownership of the ledger. There is room to grow into management accounts as you settle in.

  • Remote Recruitment connects South African talent with UK employers. We reply to every application.
