We are looking for a reliable, detail-oriented, and flexible Accounts Payable Assistant to join our Finance team on a casual basis at our Darwin office, with a genuine opportunity to grow into full-time hours or an expanded role as our business grows.

This is a hands-on, office-based role focused on the day-to-day processing of bills through our accounting systems. You will work closely with the Accounts Payable Officer, ensuring bills are correctly processed from receipt through to payment. Beyond accounts payable, you'll have the chance to broaden your skills into accounts receivable, payroll, and HR support as your capability grows with us — and if you have any hands‑on IT experience, that's a genuine bonus, as down the track we'll need help setting up accounting software for new clients.

We're most interested in someone flexible, reliable, and capable of operating seamlessly in accounts payable from day one, who is also open to learning and taking on current responsibilities as the role evolves.

Previous Accounts Payable or bookkeeping experience within a rapid-paced environment

Flexibility and willingness to learn new areas of the business, including accounts receivable, payroll, and HR

Excellent computer skills and a strong ability to quickly learn and navigate multiple software platforms and accounting systems

Strong attention to detail and excellent organisational skills
