Western Berry Company is a growing blueberry farming group based in Regans Ford, approximately 100 km north of Perth in the Swan Coastal Plain. We operate across multiple farming entities, managing everything from paddock to market, and our finance team plays a central role in keeping our operations running efficiently. We are a close‐knit, value‐driven team that offers a genuine chance to build a career in agribusiness finance — with direct access to experienced leadership and a Senior Accountant committed to your development.

This role would be suited for either a career Bookkeeper/Accountant or a Junior Accountant studying towards CPA/CA looking to develop their skills and progress to Senior Accountant in two or three years. You will work on‐site at our Regans Ford farm, with the opportunity to live locally in Gingin or the stunning coastal community of Lancelin or Ledge Point, just minutes away.

LOCAL LIFE – GINGIN, LANCELIN & LEDGE POINT
Gingin is a rural town located approximately 80km north of Perth in the Wheatbelt region, with the recent Tonkin Highway extension cutting the driving time down to approximately 1hr from the Perth metro area, and outer suburbs like Joondalup & Ellenbrook only 45mins. Other benefits of living in Gingin include affordable housing, generally larger properties and lower prices than Perth metro; new property developments; local school with offerings up to Year 10 locally & multiple bus routes to outer city high schools, both public & private; close proximity to Moore River and coastal areas.
Lancelin and Ledge Point sit on Western Australia's stunning Turquoise Coast — a world‐famous windsurfing and kiteboarding destination surrounded by white sand dunes, pristine beaches, and some of the best lobster fishing in Australia. It is a genuine sea‐change lifestyle: affordable housing, a tight‐knit community, and the kind of work–life balance that is simply not available in the city. Perth is an easy hour's drive south for weekends, shopping, and major amenities. If you have been looking for a reason to make the move to Western Australia, this is it.
