Find your Fit at FIELD Engineers

At FIELD Engineers, we’re not just engineers. We’re a team of down-to-earth professionals who care about doing good work, treating people well, and backing each other to succeed. We don’t fit the big business mould – and we’re proud of that.

We’re looking for an Accounts / Administration Team Leader to step in and cover a period of maternity leave. If you enjoy leading people, improving systems, and rolling your sleeves up when needed, this could be a great fit.

Your opportunity at FIELD

Reporting to the General Manager, you’ll lead a closeknit team of five, including our Management Accountant, Accounts Officer and Office Administrators. This is a hands-on leadership role where coaching, supporting and balancing workloads is just as important as getting the work done.

We’ve recently implemented MYOB Acumatica ERP (previously MYOB Advance). This role plays a key part in making sure we’re getting the most out of it. You’ll be our internal systems champion – supporting the team, troubleshooting issues, and looking for smarter, more efficient ways of working.

You’ll also oversee and assist with:

* Accounts payable and receivable

* Cash flow management and reporting

* Timesheet approvals

* General administration and office operations

This is a full‑time maternity leave cover role, anticipated to be 14–16 months, including handover periods.

What you’ll bring
To succeed in this role, you will:

* have strong experience using and administering MYOB Acumatica (this is essential)

* be confident across accounts payable, receivable, reporting and cash flow

* have experience leading or supervising a small team

* be comfortable juggling priorities and supporting others to meet deadlines.

We’d also love you to:

* have worked in engineering or professional services

* be confident using MS Word, Excel and SharePoint

* take a proactive, solutions focused approach

* communicate easily with people at all levels, including our team, clients, contractors and suppliers.

Why FIELD Engineers?

At FIELD, you’ll work in a practical, people‑focused business where your contribution genuinely matters. You’ll find:

* People who care – A supportive, down‑to‑earth team that values collaboration, respect and open communication.

* Trust and growth – Real ownership of your role, with the support and opportunity to develop your skills alongside experienced professionals.

* Challenge and pride – Meaningful work that keeps you engaged, stretches your capability, and gives you pride in what you deliver.

* Balance that’s right – Flexibility and realistic expectations that support a sustainable balance between work and life.
