- Project accounts: Support job costing and labour allocation, check timesheets and project information for accuracy, and help management monitor project costs.
- Accountant support: Prepare supporting records for BAS and other reporting requirements, working with the external accountant.
- Administration: Maintain purchase orders, employee records and document registers; support induction, training, WHS documentation, software implementation and toolbox meeting records; and follow up agreed project actions and deliverables.
- Process improvement: Help improve systems, research practical solutions,



document procedures and actively support administrative projects.

What you’ll bring

- At least 5 years’ hands-on MYOB experience across payroll, accounts payable and accounts receivable.
- Practical experience processing Australian payroll and completing account reconciliations.
- Strong Excel or spreadsheet skills, including checking exports, auditing and comparing data and investigating discrepancies.
- An organised, meticulous and accurate approach, along with the ability to manage priorities and follow work through to completion.
- Clear communication, confidence following up overdue accounts, and sound judgement about when to ask questions or raise concerns.
- Discretion when handling financial and employee information, and a warm, helpful and respectful approach to colleagues, customers and suppliers.

Experience in marine, manufacturing, construction, joinery or another project-based business would be highly regarded.
