Creditors Administrator

The Opportunity: Get in on the Next Chapter

A permanent position has opened up within a highly specialised, highly profitable niche of the commercial insurance sector. 

The business has recently moved through a transition period following a management buy-out. With fresh leadership at the helm, they are actively preparing for their next major phase of growth.

For you, this means a real career path. As the business expands, there is a genuine opportunity to scale your role and step up into more senior positions within the finance department.

The Reality: Not for a Wallflower

This is a fast-paced, changing environment. The team is focused on getting back onto the front foot, which means they need someone adaptable and proactive. If you prefer a quiet, slow-paced routine where nothing ever changes, you will not enjoy this environment. But if you want a role where your work directly impacts the team's efficiency and you can see the results of your efforts, this is it.

Your Day-to-Day

Operating fully on-site from the office in Bryanston , you will report directly to the Finance Manager. Working primarily on Sage products, your responsibilities will include:

  • Accurate capturing and processing of supplier invoices on the financial system.
  • Matching invoices with purchase orders and securing the necessary internal approvals.
  • Conducting monthly reconciliations of creditor accounts against supplier statements.
  • Investigating and resolving account discrepancies directly with suppliers and insurers.
  • Ensuring strict compliance with financial regulations, internal controls, and tax laws such as VAT.
  • Supporting the month-end closing process and assisting with internal or external audit documentation.

What You Need to Bring

  • Education: Matric (Grade 12) with Accounting or Mathematics is required. A relevant Diploma or Degree in Finance or Accounting is preferred.
  • Experience: A minimum of 2 to 3 years of dedicated experience in an accounts payable or creditors role. Experience within financial services or insurance gives you a distinct advantage.
  • Systems: Strong proficiency in Microsoft Excel and hands-on experience with financial accounting software (specifically Sage platforms).
  • Competencies: Sharp numerical skills, excellent attention to detail, and the ability to maintain accuracy under tight deadlines.
  • Background Check: A completely clear criminal and credit record is a mandatory requirement for this role.

The Package

  • Salary: R25,000 to R28,000 per month, depending on your current experience level.
  • Location: Bryanston (On-site).

  • Job Type: Permanent.
