Bookkeeper (part-time)

As we're expanding we need a new bookkeeper. It's probably 3-4 days a month for 1-2 months and then one day a fortnight.

Who are we and how do we work?
Digital is a specialist training and marketing consultancy in London's Soho. We teach firms about internet strategy and deliver training courses in 20 countries. We help our accelerate the businesses of our clients by getting their web strategies right or by helping them build stronger management and marketing teams. Over 50% of our activities are outside the UK, and we're consistently rated as being one of the world's leading firms within our specialism. Digital's team work with some of the leading brands in the world and just as they have high expectations of us. Every firm needs strong financial management, and the reports you produce will be read avidly by our team, wherever they are in the world.

Key facts
Job costings: We code invoices and timesheets to projects as well as conventional cost codes
Management reporting: There are standard KPIs we need for business performance as well as the familiar cashflow, aged debtors etc
Credit control: This would probably be part of the role
Payroll is not needed as this is outsourced
Packages: We run Sage Line 50
Workflow: All invoices come to you coded with the right cost centre and signed off by the managers. There is no purchase order system in place

Typical tasks

  • Entering expenses (after they have been coded onto excel spreadsheets)
  • Bought ledger
  • VAT calculations
  • Bank rec
  • Reporting: No reporting is needed for the share holders beyond the annual Companies House returns

Company structure
You would report to our office manager on a daily basis and to our CEO for direction
You would be assisted by one part time admin support person who would collate expenses. You could be assisted by a further member of the team for credit control.

Working practices
As an internet user you'll be excellent with email and Microsoft Office as well as accountancy packages and you'll be experienced at working in a structure where you plan your own schedule and tackle problems directly. It's fast paced here at Digital, and your line managers may be out of the country for weeks at a time, so you'll be comfortable reporting by email, working through our extranet and using existing processes and structures. Flexible and teleworking arrangements are possible for this role.

Ideal candidate?
You'll be a part qualified accountant with experience of working in an agency environment.
