JOB OVERVIEW

Part-Time Accountant / Bookkeeper | UAE Accounting Practice | Remote

Company: Quill Accounting Services, Dubai, UAE
Location: Remote, Philippines
Position: Part-Time Independent Consultant
Hours: Flexible, with availability during UAE business hours
Rate: Competitive hourly rate, dependent on experience

About Us

Quill Accounting Services is a growing Dubai-based accounting practice supporting a varied portfolio of UAE businesses with bookkeeping, management accounts, VAT and Corporate Tax compliance.

We are looking for an experienced, hardworking and reliable accountant to support our Finance Manager with day-to-day accounting and tax compliance.

This is a hands-on role requiring someone who can work independently, take ownership of tasks and consistently meet deadlines.

Key Responsibilities

Bookkeeping & Financial Reporting

Maintain accurate bookkeeping records across multiple UAE clients.
Process sales invoices, purchase invoices, bank transactions and journals.
Prepare month-end adjustments, including accruals, prepayments, depreciation and payroll.
Complete bank and balance sheet reconciliations.
Review trial balances, investigate discrepancies and prepare monthly management accounts.
Maintain clear working papers and supporting documentation.

UAE VAT & Corporate Tax

Prepare and submit UAE VAT returns through the FTA EmaraTax portal.
Understand UAE VAT treatments, including standard-rated, zero-rated, exempt and out-of-scope transactions.
Apply correct VAT treatment to overseas transactions, imported services, reverse charge and recoverable/non-recoverable input VAT.
Prepare VAT reconciliations and supporting schedules.
Assist with Corporate Tax computations and annual CT return filings.
Complete VAT and Corporate Tax registrations, amendments and related FTA submissions.
Monitor client FTA portals, registration requirements, filing deadlines and outstanding compliance actions daily.

Requirements

Strong practical bookkeeping and accounting experience, ideally within an accounting practice.
Experience using Xero, including journals, reconciliations and financial reporting.
Previous hands-on experience preparing and submitting UAE VAT returns is essential.
Good understanding of UAE Corporate Tax and FTA compliance.
Strong Excel skills and attention to detail.
Ability to manage multiple clients and deadlines independently.
Reliable, proactive and responsive, with good English communication skills.

Working Arrangement

This is a part-time independent consultancy position, not a full-time salaried role.
Work will be allocated based on client requirements and the receipt of monthly accounting records. Workloads may vary from week to week, particularly around VAT and Corporate Tax deadlines.
We are looking to establish a long-term relationship with a consultant who can provide regular availability during agreed UAE working hours.
There are no guaranteed monthly hours initially. Additional work may become available as our client portfolio continues to grow.

How to Apply

Please send your CV to ---------- with the subject Part-Time Accountant Application.

In your email, please confirm:

Your experience with UAE bookkeeping, VAT and Corporate Tax.
Whether you have personally submitted VAT returns and registrations through EmaraTax.
Your experience using Xero and managing multiple clients.
Your expected hourly rate in AED or USD.
Your weekly availability and earliest possible start date.
