Help run the finances of a not-for-profit that’s tackling fuel poverty and backing clean home-energy innovation.
Ebico is a small, friendly not-for-profit group based in Witney. We’ve spent over two decades working to make energy fairer and more affordable, and through our charity, the Ebico Trust, we fund early-stage businesses developing net-zero technologies for the home. Our long-standing bookkeeper is retiring, and we’re looking for a capable, self-sufficient replacement to keep our finances running smoothly.
The hours work around your life. This is a part-time role of roughly two days a week (about 15 hours). We’re happy to spread those hours across three days with school-run-friendly start and finish times - tell us what works for you. One day a week needs to be in our Witney office; the rest can be worked from home.
What you’d be doing
· Oversight of low-volume transactions across two trading companies and a charity in Sage 50 - supplier invoices, bank postings, journals and reconciliations
· Preparing and submitting quarterly VAT returns
· Running monthly payroll in Sage 50 Payroll, including pensions and HMRC submissions
· Producing monthly management accounts, cash-flow reports and the annual budget
· Handling statutory filings - Companies House confirmation statements, Charity Commission accounts and pension schedules
We’re looking for someone who
· Has solid bookkeeping experience and can work independently with minimal supervision
· Knows Sage 50 Accounts and ideally Sage 50 Payroll well
· Is confident in Excel (formulas, journals, reconciliations)
· Is comfortable with VAT, PAYE/RTI and month-end routines
· Is accurate, organised and trustworthy with confidential financial information
· AAT qualification (or qualified by experience) is welcome
What we offer
· £18 per hour
· Genuinely flexible, school-run-friendly hours
· Hybrid working (one office day a week in Witney)
· Workplace pension via Royal London
· Death-in-service cover
· Free on-site parking
· A warm, supportive small team and a mission you can feel good about
We use modern tools - including some AI assistance - to take the grind out of routine number-crunching, so you can focus on the parts of the job that need your judgement. Full support provided.
