About MAVI
MAVI connects experienced South African accounting professionals with high-impact roles at US companies. We build long-term teams — not placement pipelines. When you join MAVI, you get stable work, global exposure, and compensation that reflects your true value.
Role Overview
100% Remote | USD-Equivalent Pay | Long-Term Role | US Client Exposure
You will own the full accounting function for US-based businesses — not execute tasks for someone else. This is a stable, long-term remote role with direct access to US CFOs and Controllers, built for experienced South African accounting professionals ready to work at a higher level.
SAIPA, SAICA, and CIMA-qualified candidates are strongly encouraged to apply.
What You Will Own
- Full-cycle accounting for US clients — AP, AR, GL, reconciliations, month-end close, and financial reporting
- Month-end close process — owned end-to-end, with minimal supervision
- Financial statements and management packs under US GAAP
- General ledger accuracy across multiple US client accounts
- Direct partnerships with US Controllers, CFOs, and business stakeholders
- Process improvement, audit preparation, and compliance readiness
What We Are Looking For
- 5+ years of accounting experience with exposure to US GAAP or international standards (IFRS background considered)
- SAIPA, SAICA, CIMA, or equivalent qualification preferred
- Proven ability to handle end-to-end accounting independently
- ERP proficiency — QuickBooks, NetSuite, Xero, or similar
- Strong English communication skills and comfort working with foreign clients
- Availability for US time zone overlap (partial or full)
Why This Role Is Different
- USD-equivalent compensation — not rand-based pay for international work
- Long-term client partnerships — not short-term contracts or project work
- Real ownership — you run the accounting function, not just execute tasks
- Direct exposure to US founders, CFOs, and finance leaders at high-growth SMEs
- Clear progression path to senior lead and managerial roles within MAVI
