- Coordinate closely with operations, warehouse, and sales teams.
Requirements
- Minimum 3–5 years of accounting experience in UAE (FMCG/Trading/Distribution preferred).
- Strong knowledge of VAT, Excise Tax, landed cost, and inventory accounting.
- Experience with Odoo, Tally, Zoho, or similar ERP systems.
- Strong Excel skills (VLOOKUP, Pivot Tables, basic formulas).
- Ability to work independently with high attention to detail.
- Excellent English communication skills.
- Available to join immediately or within 30 days.
What We Offer
- Competitive salary
