What you’ll be doing
As a part qualified accountant (or intention to study) with a keen interest in investment products and accounting treatment thereon, you’ll join us in this Investment Accountant role at the heart of the finance team.
You’ll be responsible for cash matching, cash and security reconciliation, review and reporting of the Brit entities and Group’s investment portfolio. Additionally, you’ll manage the monthly preparation, posting and reconciliation of investment accounting within all source and reporting systems and manage and deliver key tasks for Brit Group reporting to Fairfax delivering accurate reporting, analysis and supplementary schedules.
We’d love it if you had a keen interest in coding and building models along with your advanced excel and Microsoft suite skills. Equally, experience and knowledge of general ledger systems would be good to see but not an essential requirement.
You’ll be able to independently prioritise tasks and meet tight deadlines, working with minimum supervision.
Collaboration is key here at Brit and your excellent communication and presentational skills will be embraced along with your high level of personal motivation.
We welcome everyone wholeheartedly
We’ve got a truly diverse, genuinely inclusive work environment. We comfortably and confidently bring our whole selves to work, because we know we’ll be respected, valued and accepted whoever we are. Our Employee Resource groups are safe spaces for people to share their experiences, aspirations and suggestions about how we do things.
