Tech-enabled Bookkeeper

Unlike the current bookkeeper role, tech-enabled bookkeepers focus on managing and validating RPA scripts instead of manually executing outputs. This role enables bookkeepers to use and manage RPA with their accounting system to maximise efficiencies and should be seen as an interim role in the job redesign process prior to taking on a tech-capable bookkeeping role.
