About JNB Bearings

JNB Bearings Pvt Ltd is the import and distribution arm behind the J&B brand of industrial bearings. We import directly from leading manufacturers and supply bearings, pillow blocks, V-belts and oil seals to stone crushers, rice mills, OEMs, workshops and dealers across Tamil Nadu, Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka and Maharashtra.

Our finance function runs fully on the cloud — Zoho Books, Zoho Payroll, Zoho Expense, Zoho Inventory, GST e-invoicing and e-way bills — with written SOPs, maker-checker approvals and monthly KPIs. We want an accountant who treats finance as the backbone of the business, not a back-office chore.

The Role in One Line

Own the books of JNB Bearings end-to-end — same-day accounting, zero-error GST, tight collections, clean bank reconciliation, accurate import landed cost, and month-end close by the 5th.

What You Will Do

1. Daily Accounting & Zoho Books Hygiene

  • Post sales, purchase, journal, debit/credit note and bank entries in Zoho Books the same day — zero drafts or backlog at day close
  • Verify GSTIN, HSN, tax rate and ledger on every invoice before saving; keep the chart of accounts and item master clean (no duplicates)

2. GST, TDS & Statutory Compliance

  • Generate e-invoices (IRN) and e-way bills correctly; handle cancellations and amendments within portal windows
  • Weekly GSTR-2B vs purchase register reconciliation; vendor follow-up for missing ITC
  • Prepare GSTR-1 (by 11th) and GSTR-3B (by 20th) data and file in coordination with our CA
  • TDS deduction, deposit by the 7th, 26AS / deductee reconciliation and quarterly return support

3. Receivables & Credit Control

  • Daily payment reminders, same-day receipt application, weekly AR ageing (0–30 / 31–60 / 61–90 / 90+)
  • Enforce customer credit limits — no dispatch over limit without Director approval; escalate >60-day overdue with a recommended action

4. Payables & Vendor Management

  • Post vendor bills within 24 hours; weekly payment schedule for approval; monthly vendor statement reconciliation
  • Track MSME vendor payments within 45 days (Sec. 43B(h)); prevent duplicate invoices and unverified bank-detail changes

5. Bank Reconciliation & Cash

  • Daily posting and weekly BRS across all current accounts (ICICI, Kotak, IOB); monthly BRS by the 3rd
  • Daily cash & bank position to the Director by 6:00 PM; rolling 30-day cash-flow forecast every Monday

6. Import Accounting & Landed Cost

  • Verify Bill of Entry against supplier invoice; account customs duty, IGST on import, ocean freight, CHA and local freight separately
  • Calculate landed cost per unit and update item cost in Zoho Books / Inventory; share GP impact with the Director
  • Coordinate with our AD bank (ICICI trade account) for import remittances and BOE submission / IDPMS closure

7. Inventory, Payroll, MIS & Audit

  • Monthly physical stock vs Zoho Inventory reconciliation with the warehouse team (variance <1%)
  • Monthly payroll inputs in Zoho Payroll from Zoho People attendance; salary paid on the 7th; expense claims in Zoho Expense within 48 hours
  • Weekly and monthly MIS (AR/AP ageing, GST status, bank balances, expense and GP summary) by the 5th
  • Keep every voucher attached in Zoho Books — any record retrievable within 24 hours for auditors
How You Will Be Measured (Key KPIs)
  • GSTR-1 / GSTR-3B: 100% accurate, filed on time — zero interest or late fee
  • Zero accounting backlog older than 24 hours; month-end books closed by the 5th
  • Bank reconciliation: all accounts by the 3rd; no unreconciled entry older than 3 working days
  • Collections: ≥95% collected within credit terms; zero >30-day overdue without escalation
  • 100% of import shipments with BOE posted and landed cost calculated within 3 working days
  • Zero salary errors; expense claims processed within 48 hours; MIS delivered by the 5th

Full KRA / KPI / SOP framework is shared with shortlisted candidates and becomes your appraisal scorecard from day one.

What You Bring

Must-have
