Job Description

Ready to level up your accounting career in a creative industry?

We’re looking for a sharp, detail-loving Junior Accountant to join a dynamic advertising and production company based in Johannesburg. If you’ve got a head for numbers and a passion for getting things right, this could be your next move.

Who we are
This fast-paced, innovative business brings campaigns and productions to life. You’ll be joining a close-knit finance team where your skills will help keep the creative wheels turning.

What the role is about
You’ll take ownership of core accounting processes — from invoicing and reconciliations to managing ledgers and VAT. It’s a hands-on role with great exposure to the workings of a vibrant, high-energy industry.

What you’ll be doing

  • Process supplier invoices and manage production cost of sales
  • Prepare customer quotations and invoices
  • Reconcile bank transactions and manage accounts (current, debit, money market)
  • Maintain key schedules: insurance, fixed assets, production, and subscriptions
  • Oversee VAT reconciliations and prepare VAT 201 submissions
  • Handle debtors, monthly depreciation, and chart of accounts updates

What we’re looking for

  • National Diploma in Accounting or equivalent
  • 3–5 years of solid bookkeeping experience
  • Strong Excel skills and familiarity with Microsoft Office
  • Knowledge of Xero is a plus
  • Detail-oriented, organised, and confident with numbers
  • Experience in advertising or production is advantageous

What’s in it for you

  • Be part of a creative, fast-moving industry
  • Work in a supportive and collaborative finance team
  • Opportunities to grow with the business
  • Gain diverse exposure to both operational and financial accounting
