The title Accountant is only a starting point. Code 241101 places the role in Accountants, while responsibility for “Audit the financial claims” reveals the work a candidate should test and explain.
Official title: Accountant
Occupation code: 241101
Mahana sector: Finance and accounting
Official unit group: Accountants
How to read the Accountant responsibility
Treat Accountant as accountability for an output rather than a list of tools. In this record, the work begins with “Audit the financial claims”; useful evidence shows where Public accounting changed the result and how that result was checked.
Compare code 241101 with three current vacancies and record the output, authority, method, reviewer, and consequence of error. Differences between the adverts matter as much as the repeated wording.

Skills in working context
- Do not list Public accounting alone in an application for Accountant; show how it changed a decision or output during “Audit the financial claims” and what evidence remained.
- Do not list Daily record keeping alone in an application for Accountant; show how it changed a decision or output during “Monitor current and capital expenses based on the monthly financial position of the budget…” and what evidence remained.
- Use an example from Accountant work for code 241101 that connects Accounting responsibility to “Prepare the accounting entries”, separates your contribution from the team result, and names the decision you owned.
- Test Accounts Receivables through a bounded code-241101 case involving “Develop the accounting methods and procedures”. Record the inputs, likely failure, and correction method.
Behavioural evidence for Accountant appears in the way “Monitor current and capital expenses based on the monthly financial position of the budget…” is delivered. In a code-241101 example, explain how Team Work, Ability to build relationships, Analytical Thinking affected review, timing, or conflict handling.
A contained evidence project
Test one bounded part of Accountant work without presenting the exercise as independent professional practice. Start from “Audit the financial claims”, use Public accounting, and record what changed after review: For this Accountant exercise, prepare a small reconciliation or audit working paper from a training dataset, trace exceptions to evidence, and document the conclusion and reviewer questions. Anchor the brief to “Audit the financial claims” and record where Public accounting affects the result.
- Accountant evidence: For Accountant, conclusion and review trail linked to “Monitor current and capital expenses based on the monthly financial position of the budget…”
- Accountant evidence: A working output showing how Public accounting supports “Audit the financial claims”
- Accountant evidence: A code-241101 review note that records one challenge, correction, and remaining limit
Pitfall to avoid: A weak Accountant portfolio fails by presenting totals without source documents, control checks, or a clear audit trail. Tie the correction to Daily record keeping and a named quality check.
