We value a friendly, collaborative team environment and are looking for a Finance and Office Manager to take ownership of our day-to-day office and finance function and provide strong financial oversight across the business.

This is a senior, hands-on position suited to someone who is highly capable, organised and confident working autonomously. You will work closely with the business owners and management team and play an important role in ensuring our accounts, reporting and financial processes are accurate, efficient and well controlled.

- Significant experience in a senior accounting, finance manager or similar role
- Strong knowledge of MYOB AccountRight
- Excellent understanding of Australian accounting, payroll and compliance requirements
- Strong Excel skills
- Experience preparing management reports, budgets and cash-flow forecasts

- The ability to work independently while communicating effectively with business owners and management

What We’re Looking For

More than anything, we are looking for a capable, trustworthy and proactive finance professional who wants to understand the business, take responsibility for the numbers and become a valued long-term member of our team.

This is an excellent prospect for an experienced accountant who enjoys being close to the operations of a business rather than working in a purely corporate finance environment.

Competitive salary will be offered and negotiated based on experience and qualifications.

If you are an experienced accounting professional looking for a senior, hands-on role where you can make a genuine contribution to the business, we would love to hear from you.
