  • Prepare the CNSS social returns with human resources.
  • Manage fixed assets: acquisitions, depreciation schedules and physical inventory.
  • Take part in monthly and annual closings: accruals, provisions, account justification, preparation of the financial statements and the tax package.
  • Prepare the files for the statutory auditor and for tax or social audits, and keep accounting documents filed and traceable.

  • Five years or more of experience in accounting, in an industrial company or an accounting firm.
