Accounts Payable Officer

Canberra | Full time The role

Invoices come in fast here. This is a high-volume AP seat, and the person in it keeps everything moving: accurate, on time, and without suppliers or internal teams chasing.

You’ll be the go-to for both. Suppliers need to know their payment is sorted. Staff across the business need answers when something’s stuck. You’ll handle both with a straight, helpful conversation rather than a runaround.

What you’ll be doing

- Processing a high volume of supplier invoices accurately and on time
- Running payment runs and keeping the creditors ledger clean
- Reconciling supplier statements and clearing queries and discrepancies
- Working with budget holders and other internal teams to get approvals moving and coding right
- Being the first point of contact for supplier enquiries
- Keeping AP processes tight and flagging where they can be improved

What you’ll bring

- Proven Accounts Payable experience in a high-volume setting




- Excellent communication skills. You’re confident picking up the phone, and you can deal with senior stakeholders as comfortably as suppliers
- A natural instinct for building relationships across a business
- Strong attention to detail and the ability to stay organised when the workload spikes
- Solid working knowledge of an ERP or accounting system and Excel
- A proactive, ownership-minded approach. You see a problem, you fix it

Why this one

- Permanent full-time role, Monday to Friday office hours
- Canberra-based commercial business where AP is valued, not treated as an afterthought
- Real exposure to people across the business, not just a desk and a screen
