This is a hands-on role suited to someone who enjoys working across the finance function of a growing retail and eCommerce business, understands how financial systems connect, and is motivated to find smarter, more efficient ways of working.

We're looking for more than someone who can process transactions and reconcile accounts. We want a curious, detail-oriented problem solver who takes ownership, asks questions and proactively identifies opportunities to improve financial processes, reporting and systems.

You'll play an important role in maintaining accurate financial records, supporting day-to-day operations and helping us strengthen and streamline our finance function as the business grows.

- Support inventory and stock reconciliations, working closely with the warehouse and operations teams.

Systems, integrations and process improvement

- Understand and manage the flow of financial information between accounting software, eCommerce platforms,



payment gateways and other business systems.
- Investigate and resolve discrepancies arising from system integrations, transaction processing and reconciliations.
- Proactively identify opportunities to streamline workflows, automate manual tasks and improve the accuracy and efficiency of financial processes.
- Review existing procedures and recommend practical improvements to strengthen internal controls and reporting.
- Support the implementation and ongoing improvement of finance systems, integrations and reporting tools.

About you We're looking for someone who combines solid accounting fundamentals with systems confidence, analytical thinking and a proactive approach to problem-solving.

Ideally, you'll bring:

- Proven experience in a finance, accounting or bookkeeping role, preferably within a retail, wholesale or eCommerce business.
- Strong understanding of accounting processes and experience using accounting software such as Xero.
- Experience working with, or reconciling transactions from, eCommerce platforms, POS systems, payment gateways or inventory management systems.
- Confidence navigating multiple systems and understanding how financial data flows between them.




- Excellent reconciliation skills and the ability to investigate discrepancies through to resolution.
- Strong Excel skills and the ability to analyse and interpret financial information.
- A naturally inquisitive mindset, with the initiative to question existing processes and identify opportunities for improvement.
- Excellent attention to detail, organisational skills and the ability to work independently.
- A practical, hands-on attitude and willingness to take ownership of tasks from start to finish.

Highly regarded:

- Experience with financial system integrations, automation or process improvement projects.
- Experience in inventory accounting, stock reconciliations or cost of goods sold.
- Experience in a business operating across multiple sales channels, including online, wholesale and retail.

What we offer At Engine Swim, you'll have the opportunity to make a genuine impact within a growing Australian swimwear and swimming equipment business.
