We're looking for a hands-on Accounts Manager to run the accounting operations of two sister companies: Matter IO, an award winning, smart cities and environmental technology company, and yStop, a digital and illuminated street furniture advertising business working with councils across WA.
Both are Perth-based in the same Osborne Park complex.
You'll own the day-to-day accounts for both businesses, and you'll be encouraged to modernise how that work gets done.
We're AI-forward and want someone who sees automation as part of the job, not a threat to it.
For the right person, the role will evolve into a management executive position.
The role will be 2-3 days a week - up to 25 hours with real flexibility - but could evolve into a full time position over time.
We currently have particularly rapid growth with Matter - our scale-up.
Your core responsibilities
Payroll: Process and manage payroll accurately and on time, including super, leave and compliance.
Reporting: Produce timely, accurate management reports and month-end results for both entities, and give directors explicit insight into the numbers.
Payments: Manage supplier payment runs and cash flow, making sure everything is approved, accurate and paid on time.
Reconciliation: Keep bank, supplier and ledger accounts fully reconciled, including reconciling supplier statements so nothing is missed before payment.
