Lorna Jane, 857 Kingsford Smith Drive, Eagle Farm, Queensland, Australia
Numbers are your language. China is your focus. Impact is your motivation.
Lorna Jane is one of Australia's most iconic activewear brands — built on the belief that living an active life changes everything. With a growing presence across global markets including China, we're looking for a sharp, detail-driven finance professional to join our team and own the numbers behind our China operations.
This isn't a role where you'll be buried in spreadsheets with no voice. You'll be a key player in month‐end close, cross‐border compliance, and financial insight — working directly with a collaborative finance team and stakeholders across the business.
We're open to both full‐time and part‐time arrangements for the right person. If you're a working parent or someone looking for flexibility without sacrificing meaningful work, we'd love to hear from you.
WHAT YOU'LL OWN
Month‐End & Reporting
* Prepare and post month‐end journals — accruals, prepayments, marketplace selling fee reconciliations, and influencer product giveaways
* Complete balance sheet reconciliations and resolve unreconciled items promptly
* Prepare bank reconciliations and bank uploads for China and AU entities
* Ensure China daily sales uploads are accurate and on time
Tax, Compliance & Fixed Assets
* Prepare and lodge BAS/VAT returns for AU, SG and NZ
* Liaise with China outsourced accountants to keep monthly compliance on track
* Support external audit requirements end‐to‐end
* Maintain the AU fixed asset register — WIP tracking, store fit‐out capitalisation, and depreciation
* Process all China‐related stock and general invoices accurately and within prescribed timeframes
Analysis & Continuous Improvement
* Provide financial analysis to the China team and support ad‐hoc projects
* Identify and implement process improvements that sharpen reporting efficiency
* Respond to internal and external queries with urgency and escalate issues as needed
ABOUT YOU
You're the kind of person who gets a quiet thrill from a perfectly reconciled balance sheet — and then asks \"how can we make this faster next time?\" You hold yourself to a high standard, you don't wait to be told what to do, and you know how to work across cultures and time zones with ease.
You bring:
* 2+ years of experience in an accounting or finance role
* A Bachelor's degree in Accounting or a related discipline
* Chinese language fluency — this role works directly with our China market team and partners, so the ability to communicate confidently in Mandarin (written and spoken) is essential
* Proven ability to monitor financials, spot variances, and draw insight from data
* Advanced Excel skills — pivot tables, XLOOKUP, and beyond
* A track record of meeting month‐end and compliance deadlines without fail
Bonus points for:
* CA/CPA qualification (or working towards it)
* Experience using NetSuite in a retail environment
* Exposure to cross‐border finance across AU, SG, NZ and/or Greater China
