Part-Time Bookkeeper
Habitat XR
Remuneration: market-related. Location: Johannesburg, Parkhurst. Education level: Degree. Job level: Management (Snr - Executive, 5+ yrs). Type: Permanent. Company: Habitat XR. Job Description About the Role We are looking for a sharp, proactive part-time bookkeeper to own the financial compliance and reporting for Habitat XR — a Johannesburg-based immersive storytelling and XR production studio — and provide lightweight compliance support across a small group of related entities. This is an individual role, not an agency brief. We want one person who takes direct ownership of our compliance calendar, flags issues before they become crises, and can grow into a trusted financial thought partner as the business scales. The role is one day per week, in‑office in Johannesburg — presence matters to us. We want this person embedded in our team, our culture, and our work, not a voice on the other end of a WhatsApp thread. We work across ZAR and USD, manage project‑based budgets, and operate in a fast‑moving creative/tech environment. The right person is comfortable in that ambiguity and brings structure to it rather than being paralyzed by it. One more thing — and this is not a formality: we are a nature and conservation‑driven organisation at our core. Everything we build, fund, and produce exists to deepen the relationship between people and the natural world. We want a bookkeeper who genuinely cares about that mission. Not someone who tolerates it as a backdrop, but someone who finds meaning in the idea that their financial rigor is directly helping protect wildlife and wild places. If that resonates with you, you’ll fit here. If it doesn’t, this probably isn’t your environment. The Group The primary focus is Habitat XR, with basic compliance support for the following entities: Habitat XR – full bookkeeping, reporting, payroll, VAT, and annual com
