Copia Business Services provides growing businesses with a complete outsourced finance department, going beyond basic bookkeeping to deliver financial structure, oversight, and clarity. The team supports clients with finance operations, including accounts payable and receivable, payroll, compliance, and month-end close.

We're looking for an experienced Bookkeeper to join our growing remote team.

This isn't an entry-level bookkeeping role, and it isn't a management position either.

It's ideal for someone who genuinely enjoys bookkeeping, likes owning their own workflows, takes pride in getting the details right, and wants flexibility while still doing meaningful work.

About Copia

Copia Business Services is a boutique bookkeeping and outsourced finance practice based in Sydney. We partner with small and medium-sized businesses across Australia, providing everything from payroll and accounts payable through to month-end reporting and finance support. We are a Xero-only practice and Xero Gold Partner.

We've operated remotely for years and have built strong systems, documented processes and a supportive team culture. We value people who communicate well, take ownership of their work and genuinely care about delivering an exceptional client experience.

About the Role

You'll work across a portfolio of clients assisting with:

- Accounts payable and receivable
- Bank reconciliations
- Payroll processing (weekly, fortnightly and monthly)
- Month-end bookkeeping
- Client email management and queries
- Preparing information for BAS and financial reporting
- General bookkeeping using Xero and related software





The role will commence at around 15-20 hours per week with genuine opportunity to increase hours as both you and the business grow. We're looking for someone who wants to build a long-term career with Copia.

What We’re Looking For

- At least 3 years' recent bookkeeping experience
- Strong hands-on experience using Xero

- Professional written communication skills
- The ability to manage multiple clients and deadlines
- A proactive mindset with a desire to continually improve systems and processes
- A dedicated home office with dual screens and reliable internet
- Availability to work during Australian Eastern Time (AEST/AEDT) business hours

What Success Looks Like After six months, you'll be confidently:

- Managing your own recurring client workflows
- Processing payrolls independently
- Preparing weekly payment runs
- Communicating directly with clients
- Identifying issues before they become problems
- Contributing ideas that improve our systems and client experience

This Role Isn't For You If...

- You prefer working from an office
- You dislike communicating with clients
- You need detailed instructions for every task

- You're an outsourced bookkeeping business, contractor or virtual assistant looking to add another client

What We Offer:

- Fully remote work
- Flexible hours around your other commitments
- A supportive, experienced and genuinely friendly team
- Interesting clients across a wide variety of industries
- Robust systems, templates and documented processes
- Ongoing learning and career development
- Genuine flexibility built on trust and accountability
