Our client is a rapid-growing, Sydney-based investment management business with more than $20 billion in funds under management across institutional, wholesale and retail channels. This is a hands-on role with real breadth, reporting to the Finance Manager. You'll support financial accounting and reporting across multiple entities and jurisdictions, take ownership of payroll, and build capability across accounting, payroll and AP/AR as the business scales.

This is a role for someone who wants to think for themselves, own outcomes and grow their responsibility fast.

What You'll Be Doing

- Supporting day-to-day financial accounting for group entities across multiple countries
- Assisting with month-end, quarter-end and year-end close, including balance sheet and P&L; reconciliations
- Maintaining general ledger integrity and supporting statutory reporting and external audit
- Owning payroll for the group (STP, superannuation and payroll tax touchpoints)
- Working closely with an outsourced AP/AR team, with the ability to step in directly if needed




- Supporting tax compliance administration (BAS, FBT, payroll tax) and driving process improvement and automation

About You

- CA qualified (or finishing your CA), or CPA qualified
- Around 4-8 years' experience, ideally including time in a larger firm or corporate plus time in a smaller, high-performing team
- Comfortable operating with autonomy; you've owned an entity, ledger or close process end-to-end
- Experience working across multiple entities or systems
- Resourceful with technology (advanced Excel and Power Query), with payroll experience and exposure to Australian compliance (BAS, FBT) a strong plus

Why Apply

- Real autonomy and ownership from day one, with direct mentorship from the Finance Manager
- High visibility to senior management and early involvement in projects
- Join a business in genuine growth mode, where responsibility expands ahead of headcount
- Broad, resilient skill set built across accounting, payroll and AP/AR
