We are seeking an Accountant to oversee daily financial transactions, maintain precise accounting records, and conduct daily bank reconciliations. This role involves processing customer and vendor invoices, ensuring compliance with tax regulations, maintaining supporting documentation, and assisting with month-end closing and audit activities.

Key Responsibilities

- Bank Payments and Receipts: Record all outgoing payments such as vendor payments, salaries, refunds, fees, and transfers in the ERP system on the day they clear. Accurately record incoming receipts and allocate them to the correct customer invoices, resolving unidentified receipts within two business days. Post bank charges, foreign exchange differences, interest, and inter-account transfers daily. Ensure all payment entries are supported by bank advice, approved payment requests, and invoices.

- Customer Invoices (Accounts Receivable): Generate and post customer invoices in the ERP from approved contracts, purchase orders, or billing reports. Verify that invoices comply with ZATCA requirements, including correct VAT rates, VAT numbers, QR codes, and e-invoice clearance. Maintain accurate customer master data, including names, VAT numbers, credit terms, and addresses.

- Vendor Invoices (Accounts Payable): Record vendor invoices on the day of receipt, matching them to purchase orders and goods/service receipts. Validate vendor VAT numbers, VAT amounts, invoice dates, and ensure invoices are valid tax documents before claiming input VAT. Assign invoices to the correct general ledger accounts, cost centers, and projects. Identify duplicate invoices, discrepancies, and missing approvals before posting. Maintain vendor master data and bank details through an approved change process.

- Credit Notes and Adjustments: Process customer and vendor credit notes with references to original invoices and approved reasons. Ensure credit notes comply with ZATCA rules and correctly reverse VAT. Prepare journal entries for accruals, prepayments, and reclassifications with supporting documentation.

- Supporting Documents: Attach complete supporting documentation to every ERP entry at the time of posting, including source documents, approval evidence, and calculations. Follow standardized file naming conventions to facilitate audits. Promptly follow up on missing documents and escalate unresolved issues after one business day.

- Daily Posting: Clear the daily transaction queue by recording and posting all received transactions before the end of each day. Report any unpostable items to the Supervisor with detailed reasons.

- Daily Bank Reconciliation: Download bank statements each morning for all assigned accounts and reconcile them to the ERP daily. Post any missing entries on the same day and explain all reconciling items, escalating any unresolved items older than three business days. Submit completed reconciliations for Supervisor review within agreed deadlines.

- Month-End and Audit Support: Prepare sub-ledger reconciliations (accounts receivable, accounts payable, VAT, suspense accounts) and aging reports. Support month-end closing activities, VAT return preparation, and respond to internal and external audit requests. Handle vendor statement reconciliations and customer balance confirmations.

Required Qualifications
