Finance Administrator (Temp Role)

Job description / Role

We are seeking a Finance Administrator to support the finance function of a highly respected organisation on a temporary three-month basis. This role is pivotal in ensuring that invoicing, financial documentation, and day-to-day administrative activities are carried out accurately and efficiently, contributing to the smooth running of the department.

The successful candidate will take responsibility for preparing and issuing customer invoices, ensuring accuracy, timeliness, and compliance with internal processes. You will maintain detailed financial records, assist with reconciliations, manage petty cash and credit card statements, and follow up on collections and outstanding balances. Accuracy, organisation, and attention to detail will be critical in ensuring financial integrity and supporting both internal reporting and audit requirements.

Alongside invoicing, the Finance Administrator will provide essential administrative support to the wider team. This includes data entry into financial systems, scanning, filing, and maintaining records of contracts and fixed assets. You will also be involved in preparing departmental reports and supporting the month-end and year-end closing processes. At times, you may be asked to deputise for colleagues within the finance team, ensuring a seamless continuation of service.

This position requires a commerce graduate with a specialisation in accounting or finance, together with three to five years of experience in a similar role within a multinational or fast-paced corporate environment. A sound knowledge of accounting procedures, excellent Excel skills, and experience with Microsoft Dynamics 365 would be highly advantageous. Strong organisational skills, a proactive attitude, and the ability to work both independently and as part of a collaborative team are essential.

As this is a temporary role, applicants must already hold a valid UAE residence visa and NOC and be available to commence immediately. This is a fantastic opportunity for a skilled finance professional to contribute to a dynamic, progressive environment while gaining exposure to a busy finance function.
