Key Responsibilities:

• Manage and execute the end-to-end month-end close process including journals, accruals, prepayments, provisions, and complex intercompany eliminations;

• Prepare robust monthly balance sheet reconciliations for assigned accounts, ensuring timely clearance of reconciling items and audit-ready workpapers;

• Actively identify efficiencies in the financial cycle and leverage ERP capabilities to automate manual tasks;

• Assist in optimising workflows and support the preparation of monthly management reporting and variance analysis; and

• Maintain asset schedules, revenue recognition, and lease accounting entries strictly in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards.

What We’re Looking For:

• CA, CPA, or equivalent professional qualification is essential;

• 3–5 years of post-qualification experience in a dedicated financial accounting role;

• Strong working knowledge of Australian Accounting Standards (AASB/IFRS) and Australian tax compliance (GST/BAS, FBT);

• Advanced Excel skills and hands-on experience with modern ERP systems—ideally Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central. Experience with Power Platform (Power BI/Automate) is highly regarded; and
