We're a small Australian software development company. We have been in the Philippines around eight years. We're looking for a smart accounts person to help run our Makati Office. This means you do the book-keeping, accounts and payroll, take care of our lovely staff, organise travel arrangements, assist in dealing with our bank, accountant, cleaner etc., buy the supplies, take us all to lunch ;-), help me (as the CEO who comes and goes) do my chores, plus all those little things you do to run an office.
We're looking for someone smart not because your job is very demanding (it isn't), or very difficult (it isn't), but rather because if you do your job intelligently then we all get to stay calm and focussed, and you get to enjoy being independent and in control :-). We would like you to become the glue that holds our small team of software development, training and support staff together.
Like all our staff, you should feel completely comfortable asking lots of questions - it's the way we do things here.
We pay you what you're worth, plus some. As you grow, so does your income.
