While a book-keeper posts sales & purchase invoices and carries-out the bank rec, the Accountant will prepare & post journals (depreciation etc) to our accounting software Xero, prepare a monthly consolidation / aggregation, prepare the final financial statements and provide notes (variation analysis etc) & appendices - so save for posting invoices, the role will require preparing a set of consolidated accounts virtually from start to finish every month for a group with 35 SPVs.
The plan is for the accountant to assist the financial controller in the first few months, but "own" this process (save for review by the financial controller) shortly thereafter.
Audit
Assist the financial controller liaising with external auditors on the audits on two companies (Parent Company and one of the SPVs) for part of several months each year.
VAT returns / other periodic work
Preparing and filing monthly VAT, PAYE etc returns.
Ad-hoc work
Assist the financial controller in the preparation of R&D tax credit and capital allowance claims.
Ad-hoc information requests (schedules of capitalised expenditure etc).
