Job Description

Our client is one of Australia's most recognised national sporting organisations - a business that lives and breathes its season, where finance isn't a back-office function but a genuine part of making things run. Atlas Partners is exclusively partnering with them to find their next Accounts Officer.

n

This is more than a transactional AP role. You'll be the glue that holds the Financial Control team together heading into a critical season. You are someone who can bring order, consistency and a calm head to a fast-moving, high-volume workplace.

n

About the Role

n

Reporting to the Financial Controller, you'll take true end-to-end ownership of the accounts payable function - processing, payment runs, creditor management, PO compliance and credit card/expense administration. You'll be relied on to keep things moving, flag issues before they become problems, and bring a genuine "doer" mentality to the admin work that keeps the business on track.

n

You'll also play a real role in educating the business - helping non-finance teams understand and stick to purchase order processes, with the confidence to hold your ground when people try to cut corners, while staying approachable and easy to work with.

n

What You'll Bring

n

n
- Solid AP/accounts experience, ideally with exposure to D365 F&O; or Basware (one or the other highly desirable)
n
- A genuinely strong personality - approachable, friendly, but firm when it counts
n
- The ability to prioritise,



self-manage and operate with real autonomy
n
- Strong communication skills across all levels of a busy organisation
n
- A proactive, stable, "can-do" attitude - someone who separates the noise from the work and just gets on with it
n
- Genuine curiosity about how a large, complex organisation operates
n

n

This is a hands-on doing role, not a spectator seat. That said, if you want to build a long-term career in finance within a high-profile, fast-paced organisation, the growth path speaks for itself, past people in this role have moved into Financial Accounting, Finance Business Partnering and Senior AP positions both internally and externally.

n

What's on Offer

n

n
- $85,000 - $95,000 package, with flexibility for the right person
n
- Hybrid working - 3 days in a vibrant CBD office, 2 days from home
n
- Genuine mentorship from an experienced Financial Controller and finance leadership team
n
- Learning and development pathways, with potential support toward CPA/CA study
n
- A close-knit, collaborative team culture where you won't be doing this alone
n
- The chance to work behind the scenes of one of the country's most iconic sporting brands
n

n

Sound Like You?

If you're looking for a role where your personality and reliability matter as much as your technical skill, and you want to be part of a team gearing up for its biggest season yet, we'd love to hear from you.
