SENIOR ACCOUNTS MANAGER Ready to take ownership of an accounts function and make a real impact?
Our client is a well-established, family-owned business in the Maryborough region experiencing continued growth and looking for an experienced Senior Accounts Manager to join their team.
This is a fantastic opportunity for someone who loves leading a team, creating structure, improving processes and making sure the numbers are right.
You’ll work closely with senior management and have genuine ownership of the day-to-day accounts function, while helping improve systems, reporting and financial processes across the business.
This isn’t a role where you’ll simply be processing transactions all day. Your experience and ideas will be valued, and you’ll have the autonomy to make improvements and help shape how the finance function operates moving forward.
THE ROLE As Senior Accounts Manager, you’ll take responsibility for overseeing the accounts function and supporting a small accounts team.
Your responsibilities will include:
Leading, supporting and mentoring the accounts team
Overseeing Accounts Payable and Accounts Receivable
Managing invoicing, receipting, creditors and reconciliations
Supporting payroll processes where required
Coordinating month-end activities
Ensuring financial information is accurate and delivered on time
Supporting budgeting,
forecasting and cashflow reporting
Maintaining strong financial controls and procedures
Reviewing existing processes and identifying opportunities for improvement
Improving systems, workflows and reporting
Working closely with management and operational teams
Liaising with external accountants and auditors when required
ABOUT YOU We’re looking for someone who is confident, organised and experienced, but equally important, someone who enjoys being part of a team and working within a growing business.
You’ll ideally have:
Previous experience as a Senior Accounts Manager, Accounts Manager, Finance Manager or similar
Experience leading and mentoring an accounts team
Robust Accounts Payable and Accounts Receivable knowledge
Solid reconciliation and month-end experience
Strong Excel and accounting software skills
Excellent attention to detail
Confidence communicating with both management and operational teams
A practical, hands‑on approach
The ability to identify problems and improve processes
High levels of confidentiality and integrity
You don’t necessarily need to tick every box. If you’ve successfully managed an accounts function and a team and you’re ready for your next long-term opportunity, we’d still love to hear from you.
