About This Role
This is a hands-on receivables and trade accounting position inside a young but fast-diversified Ethiopian trading company. Earth Core Trading PLC is building on the legacy of Teseme Import, so you would be stepping into an established import/export operation that is now expanding into agriculture, mining, and wholesale. The role sits at the point where money actually moves in a trading business — customer credit, invoices, and collections — making it far more commercially exposed than a typical back-office accounting job.
What the Requirements Say About This Role
The 3–5 year experience band signals that the company wants someone who has already handled a full receivables cycle independently and won't need hand-holding on day-to-day collections or reconciliations. Because this is a trading business with import/export activity, the profile being sought likely includes familiarity with multi-currency transactions, supplier and customer ledgers, and the documentation that accompanies cross-border trade. The emphasis on "trade" in the title suggests they value someone who understands commercial terms — credit periods, payment follow-up, and how receivables directly affect cash flow — not just someone who records entries.
How to Approach This Application
Lead with concrete evidence of receivables ownership: how many accounts or what volume you managed, how you reduced overdue balances, and any experience with letters of credit, foreign currency receivables, or import documentation. Earth Core is a growing company with diverse operations, so showing that you can adapt to different business lines and communicate directly with customers and suppliers will stand out more than listing software skills alone. Given the company's recent formation, they likely prioritize candidates who are comfortable building or tightening processes rather than only maintaining existing ones.
Who This Role Suits
Best suited for a mid-career accountant with hands-on receivables and trade finance exposure who wants commercial visibility in a growing diversified trading firm. Competition is likely moderate — the experience band is narrow enough to filter many applicants, but the specialized trade angle may limit the pool.
