Senior financial accountant

Sydney
EHPlabs
Accountant
Posted: 1 May
Offer description

This is a high-ownership role for a commercially minded accountant who wants to run their own race. You will take end-to-end accountability for a broad and technically demanding portfolio - spanning multi-entity month-end close, commercial P&L reporting, multi-jurisdiction statutory compliance, and audit. You will business partner with marketing leadership on ROI analysis and report directly into the Financial Controller and FP&A Head. If you are the kind of accountant who takes pride in clean numbers, clear cut-offs, commercial insight, and owning the outcome, this role is built for you.

Key Responsibilities

Month-End Close

* Own the full close cycle across assigned entities, meeting working day deadlines without supervision.
* Prepare and post all journals, accruals, prepayments, depreciation, payroll, and revenue adjustments.
* Review inventory accounting outputs (COGS, in-transit stock, landed costs, provisions) and confirm reconciliation to the GL.
* Complete and sign off bank reconciliations monthly, with all reconciling items resolved.
* Deliver full balance sheet substantiation by WD 4 — every balance evidenced, reconciled, and narrated.
* Surface risks and adjustments ahead of FC review; bring solutions, not just problems.
* Drive automation and process improvement across the close cycle.

Revenue Cut-Off

* Own revenue recognition cut-off across B2B and B2C channels, ensuring correct-period recording.
* Review ecommerce and payment gateway data feeds (including Celigo) for completeness and timing.
* Post accrued or deferred revenue adjustments at month end as required.

Commercial P&L Reporting & Business Partnering

* Deliver monthly P&L commentary that tells the story behind the numbers-variances, trends, and commercial insight.
* Report actuals vs. budget and prior period to the Financial Controller and FP&A Head.
* Partner with the Director of Marketing on campaign spend, channel investment, and ROI analysis.
* Collaborate with FP&A to align actuals, commentary, and forecasts; flag material risks to plan.

Statutory Compliance — AU, NZ, SG & UK

* Prepare and lodge BAS/GST, income tax, and other statutory filings across four jurisdictions on time.
* Coordinate with in-country advisors in Singapore and the UK, owning review and final submission.
* Maintain a compliance calendar and proactively monitor regulatory changes.

Financial Statements & Audit

* Prepare monthly and annual financial statements for assigned entities.
* Maintain audit-ready workpapers year-round.
* Act as the primary contact for external auditors; resolve queries promptly with clear audit trails.

About You

* CA or CPA qualified - full membership required.
* 3–6 years of post-qualification experience in a similar Senior Financial Accountant or equivalent role.
* Strong technical accounting skills with a solid understanding of revenue recognition, balance sheet management, and multi-entity close.
* Demonstrated ability to produce commercially meaningful P&L commentary, not just variance reporting.
* Experience business partnering with non-finance stakeholders, ideally in a marketing, commercial, or operational context.
* Experience with ERP systems - NetSuite experience highly regarded.
* Comfortable working across multi-entity, multi-jurisdiction environments with competing deadlines.
* Self-directed and organised - you manage your own deadlines and do not need to be chased.
* High attention to detail without losing sight of the broader commercial picture.
* Exposure to ecommerce, consumer goods, or product-based businesses is a strong advantage.

Benefits of working for EHPlabs

* Fun, supportive family culture
* Discounted supplements and protein bars
* Did we mention office dogs?

Note: To be considered for this role, you must have the right to live and work in Australia.
