Community Accountant
Job Type: Part Time (Minimum of 15 to a maximum of 22.5 hours per week)
Location: Rotherham
Salary: £32,347 per annum (Full Time equivalent) (Increase pay review pending)
Our client is the lead body for supporting, developing, and promoting the voluntary and community sector (VCS) in the Rotherham Borough. Their role is to facilitate effective action to bring about positive change in the lives of individuals and communities in the local area.
The organisation are now looking to expand their professional services team and recruit a community accountant to support and grow their current service in supporting organisations with accounts preparation, independent examinations and expert advice, all with the intention of delivering the strongest possible impact for the communities they support and serve.
The Role
The Community Accountant will work closely with the existing Community Accountant to build upon an already successful and vital service. You will be working within a strong team, working directly with the clients, and will be expected to deliver a great professional service. Their client base is broad and wide ranging, making the work interesting and different on a daily basis.
This role will support and strengthen financial management and practice in voluntary and community organisations through the development and delivery of high-quality community accountancy services.
The successful candidate will have:
* A relevant professional accountancy qualification (AAT, ACCA, ACA etc).
* Experience of accounts preparation (accruals and receipts and payments) and book-keeping.
* Knowledge and understanding of computer-based accounting systems (QuickBooks, Sage, Xero), SORP and Charity/Company law;
* Strong excel skills (PIVOT Tables, SUMIFS, VLOOKUP, Data validation)
* Excellent oral and written communication skills, including the ability to disseminate information in a clear way to non-financial stakeholders.
As well as having the ability to influence through a positive and respectful approach, the successful candidate must have the ability to establish personal credibility with a range of stakeholders, both internally and externally. Experience of working within the Charitable or Third Sector would be advantageous but is not essential.
The role may require attendance at meetings outside of normal working hours, therefore, the successful candidate must be willing to work flexible hours when required to meet work demands.
