Are you a hands-on finance professional who enjoys working as part of a team? This is a 12–15 month fixed-term contract with a well-regarded professional services business, in a friendly Finance team of six.
About the team
The team is cooperative and shares the load. When the month gets busy, everyone pitches in, divides up the work and makes sure deadlines are met together. Because of this, a team-player mindset is essential. You'll need to be adaptable and happy to step in wherever you're needed. This role won't suit someone who prefers rigid boundaries around their duties.

You'll support the team with project invoicing, accounts receivable, bank reconciliations and day-to-day accounting administration. The first two weeks of each month focus on invoicing the previous month's project work and timesheets. The rest of the month covers reconciliations, keeping financial records up to date and other finance support.
Key responsibilities
- Assist with monthly invoicing and accounts receivable administration
- Monitor timesheets and follow up on missing or incomplete entries so invoicing goes out on time
- Process supplier invoices, receipts and payments
- Complete regular bank reconciliations and investigate discrepancies
- Keep financial records and supporting documentation accurate
- Help with general accounting administration and ad hoc finance tasks to meet monthly deadlines
About you
- Previous experience in a finance or accounting support role, including invoicing, AP/AR and reconciliations
- Hands-on Xero experience (essential)
- A relevant accounting qualification, or currently studying accounting
- Intermediate Excel skills, including confidence with formulas and financial data
- Strong attention to detail and a methodical approach to checking work
- Able to prioritise and stay calm through a busy monthly invoicing cycle
