Fortitude Valley location | Established team | Permanent opportunity
MYOB or Jobpac experience advantageous, but not essential
An established and growing Brisbane construction business is looking for an Accounts Officer to join its finance team based in Fortitude Valley.
This is a hands‐on role covering both Accounts Payable and Accounts Receivable, suited to someone who enjoys taking ownership of their work and wants to become an important part of a busy, project‐driven business.
You'll also work closely with an existing offshore accounts assistant, so we're looking for someone who has enough experience to coordinate workload, delegate tasks and ensure the day-to‐day accounts function stays on track.
You don't need to be a qualified Accountant.
We're looking for someone with a good grounding in transactional finance who is organised, accurate and confident working autonomously.
The Role Your responsibilities will include:
Managing day-to-day Accounts Payable and Accounts Receivable
Processing supplier and subcontractor invoices
Raising invoices and maintaining accurate customer accounts
Managing debtor follow-up and outstanding accounts
Reconciling supplier statements and resolving discrepancies
Assisting with bank and account reconciliations
Liaising with suppliers, subcontractors and internal project teams
Responding to account and payment queries
Coordinating workload with an offshore accounts assistant
Reviewing and following up outstanding finance tasks
Maintaining accurate financial records and supporting documentation
Assisting with general finance administration and reporting




Providing broader support to the finance team as required
About You
We're looking for someone who has already developed a solid understanding of AP and AR and is ready to take a little more ownership in their next role.
Ideally, you'll have:
Previous experience as an Accounts Officer, Finance Officer, Accounts Administrator, AP Officer, AR Officer or similar
Practical experience across Accounts Payable and Accounts Receivable
Strong reconciliation and problem‐solving skills
Excellent attention to detail and accuracy li>
Confidence dealing with suppliers and internal stakeholders
The ability to prioritise and manage a busy workload
A proactive approach and willingness to take ownership
Some experience coordinating, delegating or reviewing the work of others
Strong general systems and computer skills
Experience within construction, property, development, engineering or another project‐based environment would be highly regarded.
Previous exposure to MYOB and/or Jobpac would also be advantageous, although this isn't essential for the right person.
The Opportunity
This is more than a transactional processing role.
The business wants someone who can become a trusted member of its finance function, take responsibility for their workload and help keep the accounts process running efficiently.
You'll be joining an established construction business with a solid pipeline of work and the opportunity to broaden your responsibilities as you develop within the position.
Salary Is Negotiable Depending On Experience.
If you're currently working within AP/AR and looking for your next prospect in Brisbane, we'd love to hear from you.
