Job Title: Jr. Accountant

Department: Finance

Location: New Cairo, Egypt

Job Purpose

The Jr. Accountant keeps the daily accounting record accurate: posting invoices, receipts and journals, matching transactions and preparing the reconciliations the close depends on. It is an entry seat built to learn financial accounting from the ground up in a high-volume online business, where every order, refund and supplier payment has to land in the ledger exactly as it happened. The standard starts here: a supplier is paid when promised and a customer refund lands because the entries behind it were right the first time.

Key Responsibilities

Transaction Processing

• Post supplier invoices, customer receipts and journal entries in D365 F&O accurately and within the daily processing window.
• Perform three-way matching of purchase orders, goods receipts and invoices before anything is released for payment.
• Record customer refunds, order adjustments and credit notes against the correct account, entity and market.
• Code every transaction to the right cost centre and dimension so reporting by market and channel stays clean.
• Attach and file supporting documents so every entry can be traced to its source in seconds.

Reconciliations

• Prepare assigned bank, payment gateway and cash on delivery reconciliations daily or weekly for review.
• Match gateway settlement reports to orders and bank receipts, and list fees, chargebacks and timing differences.
• Investigate unmatched items with operations, customer care or the supplier and clear them at source.
• Keep reconciliation workbooks in the agreed template, with balances agreed to the ledger before submission.

Month-End Close Support

• Prepare accruals listings, prepayment schedules and simple balance sheet reconciliations for assigned accounts.
• Run month-end checks on open purchase orders, unposted documents and suspense balances.
• Complete assigned close tasks on the timetable and confirm completion to the reviewer.
• Raise anomalies early, with the facts, instead of waiting for them to surface at close.

Learning, Controls & Standards

• Learn the chart of accounts, posting rules and control points used across Floward's markets.
• Follow approval limits, segregation of duties and documentation standards without shortcuts, including at peak.
• Respond to audit sample requests for assigned transactions with complete, organised evidence.
• Document what you learn in desk notes so the next person picks up the process faster.
