Keep every account accurate and every deadline on track. We’re looking for a reliable, detail-focused Bookkeeper who can turn complex financial activity into clean records, clear reporting, and confident decisions. If you take pride in precision, ownership, and improving the way work gets done, you’ll fit right in.

Role Overview

As our Bookkeeper, you’ll manage day-to-day accounting activities for a dedicated customer or a portfolio of clients. From receivables and supplier payments to reconciliations, payroll, reporting, and Australian Taxation Office compliance, you’ll deliver accurate work independently and within agreed service levels, timelines, and budgets.

Key Responsibilities

• Manage Customer Receipts: Record customer payments accurately and prepare aged receivables reports whenever clients need them.

• Coordinate Supplier Payments: Collate invoices into weekly, fortnightly, or monthly payment runs; confirm approvals; process authorised payments; and code supplier and office expenses to the correct accounts.

• Streamline Financial Records: Use accounting and receipt-capture tools effectively to simplify transaction recording and maintain reliable audit trails.

• Own Account Reconciliations: Reconcile bank accounts weekly and at month-end, review loan accounts at least quarterly, and prepare monthly reconciliation reports covering bank, loan, and credit card accounts.

• Process Payroll End to End: Maintain confidential employee records, process pay runs and ABA files, distribute accurate pay advice, monitor leave accruals, reconcile PAYG, manage superannuation payments, and complete year-end payroll reporting and lodgement.

• Deliver Monthly Reporting: Post required month-end journals, prepare draft financial statements for executive review, and assist with business wrap-ups.

• Support ATO Compliance: Prepare and lodge monthly or quarterly Business Activity Statements and Instalment Activity Statements, including the related BAS reconciliations.

• Respond to Client Needs: Complete other client-management tasks assigned by the Service Delivery Manager and contribute to continuous process improvement.

Qualifications

• A degree in Finance, Accounting, or another business-related field.

• CPA qualification is an advantage but not required.

• At least 2 years of Australian accounting experience, including GST, tax, and depreciation.

• Experience managing multiple clients and developing a strong understanding of their accounts and businesses.

• Solid accounting knowledge and the confidence to communicate clearly with clients and account stakeholders.

• Advanced proficiency in Xero, MYOB, QuickBooks, and other client accounting applications.

• Strong working knowledge of Microsoft Outlook, Word, Excel, and PowerPoint, with the ability to learn new systems quickly.

• Good written and verbal communication skills.

• A disciplined approach to quality, accuracy, confidentiality, and independent work.

• Proven ability to meet deadlines and complete assigned work within budgeted hours.
