About the Role
We're looking for an Accountant who goes well beyond data entry - you'll be responsible for interpreting financial information, identifying discrepancies, ensuring compliance, and helping leadership make informed decisions. Strong data entry and software skills are expected as a baseline, but the role demands analytical judgment on top of that.
Key Responsibilities
- Prepare and analyze monthly, quarterly, and annual financial statements in accordance with GAAP/applicable standards
- Prepare MIS reports, management reports, and ad-hoc financial reports for leadership review
- Perform account reconciliations and investigate variances, identifying root causes rather than simply flagging discrepancies
- Manage the general ledger, including journal entries requiring professional judgment (accruals, deferrals, adjustments)
- Generate and manage e-invoices in compliance with GST e-invoicing regulations
- Generate, verify, and manage e-way bills for goods movement in compliance with GST requirements
- Maintain accurate books of accounts in Tally, including voucher entries, ledger scrutiny, and periodic closing
- Analyze financial data to identify trends, risks, and opportunities for cost savings or process improvement
- Ensure compliance with internal controls, accounting policies, and statutory/regulatory requirements
- Assist with budgeting, forecasting, and variance analysis against actuals
- Support internal and external audits by preparing schedules and explaining accounting treatment
- Evaluate and improve accounting processes and controls, recommending efficiencies
- Collaborate with other departments to ensure financial data accurately reflects business activity
- Research and apply accounting standards to new or complex transactions
- Ensure accurate and timely data entry into accounting systems, with review checks to catch errors before they propagate
Qualifications
- Bachelor's degree in Accounting, Finance, or related field
- 4+ years of accounting experience (progressive responsibility preferred)
- Strong written and verbal English communication skills
- Hands-on proficiency in Tally - voucher entry, ledger management, GST returns
- Working knowledge of e-invoicing and e-way bill generation and compliance
- Advanced Excel skills (VLOOKUP/XLOOKUP, pivot tables, formulas for reconciliation and reporting)
- CA/CPA/CMA or equivalent, in-progress or qualified, strongly preferred
- Strong understanding of GAAP/IFRS/applicable accounting standards and GST regulations
- Solid, accurate data entry skills
- Demonstrated ability to analyze data and exercise professional judgment
- High attention to detail paired with big-picture thinking
