Irwin & Dow
Full job description
Our client, a leading investment group in the UAE, continues its impressive growth across the region and is now seeking an experienced and reliable accountant to join their dynamic team. With a strong focus on internal development and a collaborative working culture, this is an excellent opportunity for a detail-oriented professional to thrive in a supportive yet fast-paced corporate environment. This hands-on role is ideal for someone who is confident in managing the full range of day-to-day accounting responsibilities with minimal supervision. Working within a group company structure, the successful candidate will demonstrate a clear understanding of complex financial transactions, accounting protocols, and reporting requirements. You will be responsible for preparing accurate financial reports, reconciling accounts, managing ERP entries, and supporting the business with VAT and corporate tax compliance. Your ability to sense-check financial data and ensure the integrity of the reporting process will be key to your success. You will also play an important role in refining current accounting processes and ensuring adherence to financial controls and audit standards.
Requirements
We are seeking someone who is highly organized, analytically strong, and system-savvy—particularly with Microsoft Dynamics 365 and advanced Excel. You must bring a minimum of three years’ audit experience and at least three additional years in corporate or project accounting. A bachelor’s degree in accounting is required, and candidates who are fully or partly qualified in CA, CPA, or CMA will be prioritized. This is a trusted position in a high-performing team and would suit someone who brings both professionalism and a proactive mindset. Your communication skills should be excellent, and you must be able to handle confidential financial information with discretion.
