Bookkeeper

An exciting opportunity has arisen for an experienced and detail-oriented Bookkeeper to join a growing business based in East Kilbride. Supporting a dynamic and commercially focused organisation, our client is looking to appoint a Bookkeeper who will play a central role in maintaining accurate financial records and delivering meaningful management information to support decision making.

The Bookkeeper will report directly into the Management Team and Part Time (Fractional) Finance Director, taking responsibility for the day-to-day finance function and full month-end reporting.

• Producing all management information for monthly MI meetings, delivering clear and insightful financial reporting.


• Maintaining accurate financial records and ensuring strong financial controls are in place.


• Utilising financial software including Xero to manage and enhance reporting processes.

The Bookkeeper will ideally have strong experience using Xero and be confident working with Excel to produce detailed and accurate reports. A proactive approach, the ability to prioritise workload and a desire to continuously improve processes will be key to success in this role. This position will suit a reliable and enthusiastic finance professional who enjoys taking ownership and contributing directly to the financial performance and operational success of a growing business.
