The Ideal Candidate:

  • Solid experience in a general accounts or bookkeeping capacity.
  • Strong attention to detail and a methodical approach to routine tasks.
  • A collaborative mindset, comfortable working in a close-knit office of approximately 5-6 people.
  • Professional communication skills and a reliable work ethic.
  • Previous Experience with Payroll is advantageous but not essential.
  • A full valid clean Irish driving license is required as the office is not available to reach with Public Transport
