· Ledger Scrutiny: Review ledgers, identify incorrect entries, unusual transactions, duplicate postings, and accounting discrepancies.

· Expense & Cost Analysis: Monitor expenses, analyse cost variations, and highlight areas requiring management attention.

· Audit & Compliance: Maintain proper documentation, supporting records, schedules, and audit-ready books of accounts; coordinate with auditors and tax consultants.

· Accounting Software: Maintain accurate records in Tally Prime and Excel; prepare reports using Excel formulas, Pivot Tables, VLOOKUP/XLOOKUP, and other relevant functions.

· Management Support: Provide timely financial information, explain variances, track pending accounting matters, and ensure reports are submitted within deadlines.

· Ability to prepare and understand Balance Sheets, P&L; Statements, Trial Balances, and other financial reports.

· Experience in finalisation of accounts and party balance reconciliation.

· Mandatory working knowledge of Tally Prime and MS Excel.

· Excellent attention to detail and the ability to identify accounting errors independently.

· Good communication skills and the ability to coordinate with management, vendors, customers, auditors, and consultants.

· Ability to work independently, manage deadlines, and take ownership of the complete accounting function.

Ideal Candidate Profile

We are looking for someone who is:

· Smart, proactive, and strong in accounting fundamentals.

· Capable of understanding the complete financial picture, not just entering transactions.

· Comfortable preparing reports and explaining financial figures to management.

· Quick at identifying errors, mismatches, and discrepancies.

· Organised, reliable, and serious about accuracy and deadlines.
