apartmentNetwork Recruitment placeJohannesburg calendar_month 

Our client is a fast‑paced, internationally exposed financial services group operating across multiple jurisdictions. They value accuracy, accountability and people who can think on their feet when things get complex.

This role is ideal for a CA(SA) who has survived articles, earned their stripes, and is now ready to deepen their exposure to US reporting, consolidation, and group finance in a supportive but demanding environment.

Why should you care?

Because this role gives you:

  • Hands‑on international exposure (US, Europe, Africa)
  • Real responsibility, not "watch and learn" tasks
  • Experience that will age extremely well on your CV
  • A chance to work with seasoned finance professionals who will challenge and grow you

If youre ambitious, detail‑driven and secretly enjoy beating deadlines youll fit right in.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Monthly close and reconciliations for US and European entities
  • Preparing management packs for non‑SA operations
  • Actual vs budget analysis
  • Group monthly consolidations
  • Weekly exchange rate reporting
  • US tax return schedules and monthly payment preparation
  • US GAAP accounting memos
  • SOX documentation and liaison with auditors
  • Annual and quarterly financial statements and press releases
  • And, of course, those "other duties" that keep finance interesting

Job Experience and Skills Required:

  • Qualified CA(SA) (essential)
  • 13 years post‑articles experience
  • Big 4 training (highly advantageous)
  • Exposure to US reporting (audit or industry experience preferred)
  • Comfortable working under pressure and meeting tight deadlines
  • Strong technical accounting knowledge
  • Solid Excel skills
  • Good attention to detail (numbers notice when you dont)
  • Ability to communicate clearly across teams and time zones
  • Willingness to work hard and learn fast
  • Strong work ethic and resilience
  • Johannesburg‑based (office‑based role)
  • Immediate availability preferred
