Are you a fastidious finance all-rounder? Could you juggle handling management accounts, billing and credit control to assist in the vast growth opportunities of a £10m travel technology firm in Glasgow? If so, you'll embark on a fascinating step in your career path.
About the company
Traveltek is one of the travel industry's leading software-as-a-service (SaaS) providers. They love technology and travel, instantly connecting the world of travel through leading software. They power small travel agents on the high street right up to the most prominent global names.
In business for 25 years, they are an established brand in the UK. Under new leadership for the past five years, they have created a start-up mentality with ambitious plans to grow the business, investing in best-in-class systems and new product development. They have embarked on a global expansion with significant international customer wins. Their HQ is on Queen Street, in the heart of Glasgow's city centre, and they also have offices in Europe, Australia, and North America.
About the role
This is a multifaceted job covering the breadth of the finance function. You are likely to be AAT qualified or ACA, ACCA or CIMA part qualified or maybe you're qualified by experience. You will prepare the monthly management accounts for Traveltek's subsidiaries, including Australia and Canada. This will include monthly revenue, cost and expense accruals/deferrals and full balance sheet and intercompany reconciliations, in addition to maintenance of the fixed asset register. Preparation of the quarterly VAT return also falls into this role.
Day to day responsibilities include matching and allocating bank transactions on Xero from an automated bank feed that makes for swift bank reconciliations at month end, coupled with ensuring supplier invoices for Traveltek and its subsidiaries are uploaded into the automated approval process. Weekly, you will be asked to raise supplier payments in the online banking portal.
The business has recently automated billing processes and you will be responsible for the continual improvement of this and reviewing rigour of the process. Similarly, the credit control function is now partly automated, and we will need you build on this to further enhance and make it a light touch process.
Supported by the People & Culture Manager and Financial Controller you will carry out inhouse payroll for the UK and Australia and coordinate contractor payments through Deel. Adhoc executive and data analysis reporting will also be required. This is an exciting and varied role where you will support what's still a relatively small organisation, who is punching above its weight.
What you'll get from this role
Put simply, you'll play a significant role in the company's global growth plan as they expand in the USA and APAC.
Traveltek has a start-up approach of entrepreneurial high performance, ingenuity and constant improvement. They want you to be able to match their vision and their ambitions. Some organisations may aim for success regardless of the impact on their people. Traveltek believes supporting and nurturing talent is what brings achievement to the individual and the organisation, so they will support the rest of your accountancy exams.
While they are a remote-first company, the finance team believes there is value in meeting up in the Glasgow City office once a week. Traveltek provides a home working allowance, a 3% employer pension, Mintago membership for pension support, a healthcare plan, life assurance and a Perkbox subscription. Annual leave is a very generous 33 days including bank holidays, that will grow to 36, and there is access to a Udemy Training Subscription for continuous learning and development.
