Anchora is looking for a detail-oriented Junior Finance Assistant to work remotely from Gauteng, with applications closing on 28 December 2026. This is an entry-level support role in bookkeeping and finance administration, suited to someone who is organised, accurate and keen to build practical finance experience while working United States Eastern Time hours.

About the company and the work

Anchora is the employer advertising this vacancy on Careers24. The role supports routine bookkeeping, accounts receivable, reporting, payroll preparation and general finance administration. It is a permanent, remote position based in Gauteng, working Monday to Friday from 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM US Eastern Time. The advert lists training, vacation and professional growth among the benefits, and notes that this is an employment equity position.

Role details and duties

The successful candidate will enter and categorise financial transactions in QuickBooks, upload receipts and keep financial records organised. Duties include assisting with accounts payable and receivable, invoice processing, payment matching and tracking outstanding items; reviewing ageing reports, monitoring unpaid claims and billing issues, and following up on pending items as directed; generating daily reports from electronic medical record systems and updating spreadsheets; checking records for missing information, discrepancies and data errors and escalating issues when necessary; assisting with provider credentialing, compliance documentation, application tracking and follow-ups; preparing payroll data, managing hours report imports and exports, and assisting with payroll reconciliations; and maintaining accurate trackers and documenting follow-up actions so routine tasks are completed on time.

Requirements

The advert states the following requirements: strong organisational skills and attention to detail; advanced proficiency in Microsoft Excel, which is required; previous experience with QuickBooks, which is an advantage but not essential; strong written and verbal communication skills; a reliable and responsive approach, with the ability to follow instructions and follow through on assigned tasks; willingness to learn new systems, tools and processes; comfort with repetitive, detail-oriented administrative tasks; the ability to work independently after training while collaborating effectively with a team; and willingness to ask questions and escalate discrepancies when needed.

Where to find and apply safely

Practical tips

Before you apply, make sure your CV highlights your Excel ability clearly, since advanced Excel is a stated requirement, and mention any QuickBooks experience you have, even if it is limited. Be ready to show that you can work accurately on repetitive tasks and that you are comfortable working United States Eastern Time hours from home.
