London: Bookkeeper accounts assistant - EUjobs - 09-06-2008
Full time bookkeeper required for busy pre-school nursery based in Hammersmith
Duties will include
* Preparing invoices on a monthly basis to parents of the children in the nursery.
* Chasing overdue invoices.
* Banking and record keeping.
* Petty cash management and reconcilliation.
* Agreeing fees with potential customers (parents). Dealing with queries on invoices.
* Tracking spending and arranging for payment of invoices.
* Close liaison, in particular to discuss issues and changes, with the managers of the nurseries.
* Preparation of figures for year end.
Currently these duties are done by the management team and managed using spreadsheets. It is likely that they need to be moved to a standard software package.
The business has two schools currently, the main largest one (registered for 72 children) in Hammersmith and the smaller one (20 children) near Russell square. The role will cover bookkeeping and accounts management at both locations. It is anticipated that most of the work can be done from Hammersmith, but there will be the need to visit the Russell Square nursery at times.
The role will require initiative, the ability to work reliably without supervision, and most importantly the ability to communicate clearly and articulately with parents, staff at the nursery and the owners of the business. The role is as a result of the growth of the nursery and the need to free up the current management team from these duties, so the successful applicant will be able to define and shape the way this aspect of the business evolves.
