Senior Financial Accountant
Ready to move from being one of many in a big finance team to actually owning the numbers?
We're recruiting for a fast-growing business that's scaling quickly and needs a hands-on Senior Financial Accountant. This isn't a role where you'll be siloed into one narrow function. You'll be across month-end close, hands-on AP/AR, and genuinely shaping how the finance team operates as the business grows.
Key Responsibilities:
- Acting as right-hand support to the Finance Lead, bridging management and the wider team
- Collaborate with the AP/AR function across close cycles, keeping accruals, billing, revenue recognition, payroll journals and asset reconciliations accurate and on track
- Owning month-end close - reconciliations, journals, reporting
- Getting hands-on with AP/AR and fixing process gaps as you find them
- Driving process improvements in a fast-paced, still-evolving environment
- Be the go-to contact for external auditors and run the annual audit process
- Support budgeting and forecasting, adding commentary that helps stakeholders make sense of the numbers
- Supporting BAS/IAS, GST and FBT lodgements
- Mentoring junior or outsourced team members
What We're Looking For:
- Recent, hands-on AP/AR experience - not just oversight
- Solid all-round accounting background (month-end, reconciliations, statutory reporting)
- A proactive self-starter who's comfortable in a smaller, less structured environment
- Strong stakeholder communication skills
- Experience driving process improvements or supporting system/ERP upgrades
- CA/CPA qualified or working towards it (not essential - mindset matters more)
Why Apply:
- Hybrid working
- Real ownership over your work and direct exposure to leadership
- Young, fun, dynamic team culture
- Health & wellbeing support (private healthcare, wellbeing incentives)
- Shape a finance function from the ground up, not just maintain someone else's system
