Windhorse Publications is looking for a new part-time (12 hours p/w) accountant to join our small, dynamic and creative team.
We are looking for an Order member or dedicated Mitra with great enthusiasm for team-based right livelihood (TBRL) and the work we do: publishing life changing Dharma books. They will be taking over a well-managed and documented finance role, with responsibility for managing the bookkeeping and accounts functions for Windhorse Publications.
This part-time accounts role involves paying expenses, wages, monthly bookkeeping using Quickbooks, bank reconciliation and producing monthly cashflow reports. Other duties include running quarterly VAT returns, Gift Aid submissions, annual payment of royalties, and producing annual accounts. The accountant also inputs the annual budgeting process.
Applicants should have experience in bookkeeping and producing annual statuary accounts. Good spreadsheet skills and knowledge of VLOOKUP and pivot tables are also important, and applicants would preferably hold an accounts qualification (at least AAT).
The part-time role is 12 hours per week and fully remote, with flexibility as to when the hours are worked across the week. Our weekly online TBRL meeting is on Tuesday mornings, and we try to have at least one in-person gathering in the UK each year.
Windhorse Publications contributes to a pension scheme for its staff and offers 29 days of annual leave (FTE) plus bank holidays as well as the opportunity for sabbatical or long retreat leave every 6 years. We are also open to discussion about the work being undertaken on a freelance basis.
To apply, please send a CV, letter of motivation, and the details of two referees to info@windhorsepublications.com by 9 a.m., Monday 10 February.
