Description

Role Purpose Own the day-to-day integrity of Anqa Khans' books across a multi-property, multi-channel serviced-apartment portfolio. This role goes well beyond bookkeeping: it closes the month, reconciles revenue across OTAs and direct channels, produces accurate owner statements, and delivers clean, timely numbers that let management run unit-level P&Ls. It is the reliability backbone between operations and the finance leadership layer as the company professionalizes. Key Responsibilities General ledger & month-end close Own the full accounting cycle: journal entries, accruals, prepayments, provisions, and month-end/yearend close on a defined calendar. Maintain the chart of accounts with property / unit-level and cost-center dimensions so profitability can be read per apartment. Prepare and review balance sheet reconciliations; investigate and clear ageing items. Revenue & channel reconciliation (STR-specific) Reconcile revenue and payouts across OTAs (Airbnb, Booking.com, etc.), direct bookings, and the PMS/ channel manager against bank receipts and payment gateways. Account correctly for channel commissions, service fees, tourism/city taxes, chargebacks, and refunds. Track guest deposits and security deposits, including their release or forfeiture. Owner accounting Produce accurate, on-time owner statements: gross revenue, management fees, deductions, and net payout per unit/owner. Maintain owner ledgers and apply the revenue-share / management-fee logic consistently per each management contract. Accounts payable & vendor management Process supplier invoices (housekeeping, maintenance, utilities, linens, OTAs) with proper approvals and coding. Manage payment runs, petty cash across properties, and staff expense claims. Maintain vendor records and reconcile supplier statements. Accounts receivable & cash Manage corporate / long-stay / B2B receivables and drive collections. Perform daily/weekly bank and gateway reconciliations across multiple accounts. Support cash-flow forecasting given seasonal and occupancy-driven revenue swings. Payroll support Reconcile payroll journals for distributed operational staff; coordinate with HR on new hires, leavers, and variable pay. Reporting & analysis Prepare monthly management reports and unit-level P&Ls. Assist finance leadership with budgets, variance analysis, and ad-hoc financial modeling. Controls & process Enforce internal controls and segregation of duties; flag revenue leakage and risk. - Help document and improve finance SOPs as the function scales. Bachelor's degree in Accounting, Finance, or a related field. 5–6 years of progressive accounting experience, with at least 2 years in full-cycle / senior GL ownership. Strong command of Egyptian Accounting Standards, VAT, withholding tax, and ETA e-invoicing. Hands-on with an accounting system/ERP (e.g., Odoo, QuickBooks, Xero, or similar) and advanced Excel. Demonstrated ownership of month-end close and balance-sheet reconciliation. Fluent Arabic; solid business English for reporting. Experience in hospitality, real estate, property management, or STR / serviced apartments. Familiarity with a PMS / channel manager (e.g., Guesty, Hostaway) and OTA payout structures. Exposure to owner accounting or trust-style revenue-share models. Part-qualified or qualified (CMA / ACCA / Egyptian Society of Accountants & Auditors).
