Bookkeeper
East End of Glasgow
Circa £30,000 + Excellent Benefits
Are you an experienced Bookkeeper looking for a role that offers more than just the numbers?
We're recruiting on behalf of an established business in the East End of Glasgow that is looking to add a reliable and detail focused Bookkeeper to their friendly team. This is a fantastic opportunity for someone who enjoys taking ownership of their work while also getting involved in wider business activities.
This isn't a role where you'll be tied to a desk processing transactions all day. Once the core finance duties are under control, you'll have the opportunity to support the Directors with a variety of business and e commerce activities, making this a genuinely varied and engaging position.
The Role
You will take responsibility for the day to day finance function, managing everything up to trial balance level and playing a key role within a small, supportive team.
Duties will include:
* Processing supplier and customer invoices
* Managing the sales ledger and purchase ledger
* Allocating customer payments and completing bank reconciliations
* Credit control and chasing outstanding customer payments
* Handling customer and supplier queries via telephone and email
* Creating and importing weekly supplier payment runs
* Preparing month end management accounts
* Completing VAT returns
* Maintaining accurate financial records and ensuring daily deadlines are met
* Managing all bookkeeping activities up to trial balance
* Supporting the Directors with administration and e commerce activities
* Assisting with business correspondence and email management
* Completing general administrative duties as required
* Providing wider support across the business when needed
The company currently operates on Sage and is considering a move to Xero, making this an exciting time to join. This is a varied position where, once the core finance responsibilities are under control, you will have the opportunity to become involved in wider business activities and support the Directors across different areas of the organisation.
About You
We're keen to speak with candidates who:
* Have previous bookkeeping experience up to trial balance
* Have experience preparing management accounts and VAT returns
* Are confident managing their own workload with minimal supervision
* Have strong attention to detail and accuracy
* Are reliable, organised and self motivated
* Have good communication and people skills
* Enjoy working as part of a close knit team
* Have experience using Sage, Xero or similar accounting software
* Possess good Excel and Outlook skills
Personality and attitude are just as important as experience. The business is looking for someone who can work independently, take ownership of their responsibilities and become a valued member of the team.
What's on Offer?
* Salary circa £30,000
* 28 days holiday including bank holidays
* NEST pension scheme
* On site parking
* Early finish every Friday at 12:30pm
* Lunch provided daily by the company
* Friendly, relaxed and supportive working environment
* Varied role with exposure beyond finance
* Stable business with long term career prospects
Working Hours
Monday to Thursday: 8:45am to 5:00pm
Friday: 8:45am to 12:30pm
Why Apply?
This is an excellent opportunity for an experienced Bookkeeper who enjoys autonomy, variety and being part of a business where their contribution genuinely makes a difference. You'll have the chance to take ownership of the finance function while also getting involved in wider business activities, all within a supportive and friendly working environment.
Interested?
Apply today for a confidential discussion and further information.
This version feels more like a genuine opportunity rather than a standard bookkeeping vacancy, which should help attract stronger candidates.
Search is an equal opportunities recruiter and we welcome applications from all suitably skilled or qualified applicants, regardless of their race, sex, disability, religion/beliefs, sexual orientation or age
