Description
Experience Level: Intermediate
We are looking for someone to assist with the setup of a computerised accounts package and offer assistance/on site training at our offices (Derbyshire).
For the last 30+ years all our accounts, invoicing, quotations etc have been done by hand. However, we set up an online store 3-4 years ago which has helped drag the company into the 21st century, with the exception of our accounts system which is archaic. Our current accountant is also very old school and has been unable to advise/assist regarding a computerised accounts system.
All ledgers are currently produced by hand. We pay someone to enter everything each week.
However, in the next few weeks we'll be relaunching our online store on the Magento e-commerce platform and we'll also be using Magento to invoice non-online (phone and trade counter) transactions so that the company's entire order management and invoicing system will be computerised.
My thinking is that once we have this in place, we'll be in a much better position to transition over to a computerised accounts package (exporting of Magento data to an accounts package is not a problem).
Our requirements:
- Accounts package must run on mac computers OR be web based (a quick look at web based packages suggests that they may not meet all our requirements?)
- We import and export products globally, accounts package must accomodate this
- We are a growing business, current turnover approx £650k, accounts package must accomodate future growth
- On site training for staff to use accounts package is required (we will assume all responsibility for managing accounts once it is set up)
- Somebody with a good knowledge of accounting practices, if you're an accountant even better. We would definitely consider using your accounting services long term if you are able to assist us and prove your worth
PREFERRED...
- A knowledge of Magento
- Experience with assisting online businesses
- Experiencd with assisting import/export businesses
