About the role
Reporting to the Finance Manager, the Senior Accountant plays a critical role in the smooth day-to-day running of the finance function. This is a hands-on, end-to-end role that blends core accounting, reporting, and compliance with collaboration across the wider business.
You will act as a key point of accountability within the finance team - a trusted "gatekeeper" of financial information - while also working closely with internal stakeholders to support accurate decision-making.
Key responsibilities include:
* Managing daily, weekly and monthly finance operations to strict deadlines
* Bank reconciliations and transaction processing
* Accounts payable and receivable oversight, including invoicing and follow-ups
* Cashflow monitoring, forecasting and projections
* Monthly journals, accruals, prepayments and balance sheet reconciliations
* Fixed asset register maintenance and depreciation
* Intercompany and divisional accounting
* Preparation of management reports and financial analysis
* Supporting payroll processing, payroll tax, super and statutory reporting
* Assisting with year-end audit preparation and system improvements
* Providing broader support to the Finance Manager and senior leadership as required
While the role has clear ownership, it sits within a highly collaborative team, with strong backup support and shared knowledge - you won't be operating in isolation.
About you
You are an experienced accountant who enjoys working in a stable, team-oriented environment where quality, accuracy and relationships matter. You're confident in core accounting responsibilities, naturally organised, and comfortable balancing routine tasks with problem-solving and analysis.
You will ideally bring:
* Minimum 5 years' experience in a finance or accounting role
* A degree in Finance, Business or Commerce
* CA or CPA qualification (or currently working towards)
* Strong systems capability and advanced Excel skills
* Excellent attention to detail and analytical thinking
* Clear, professional communication skills
* The ability to work autonomously while being a strong team contributor
* A collaborative mindset and a genuine appreciation for supportive team cultures
Experience with payroll, reconciliations, reporting systems and ERP environments will be highly regarded.
Why this role?
* Join a stable, well-run organisation with long-tenured staff
* Work in a friendly, supportive finance team that values collaboration
* Enjoy flexibility and work-life balance
* Broad, meaningful role with exposure across the business
* A position where you can build long-term impact and continuity
