    We’re partnering with a leading professional services organisation in the CBD who are seeking an experienced Senior Accountant to join their high-performing finance team. This is an excellent opportunity for someone who enjoys a mix of financial and management accounting responsibilities and is looking to make an impact in a fast-paced, dynamic environment.

    The Role
    Working closely with the Finance Manager, you’ll take ownership of core accounting deliverables and play a key role in month-end, reporting, and business partnering. You’ll also gain exposure to upcoming acquisitions and can broaden your skillset in a growing, forward-thinking business.

    Systems in use include Oracle Fusion, FastTrack (Payroll), and Employment Hero, though prior experience with these systems isn’t essential.

    About You
    You’re a hands-on accountant with at least 5 years’ experience managing the end-to-end month-end process and reporting to head office. You thrive in a dynamic environment, are confident working across multiple stakeholders, and can be relied upon as a safe pair of hands to keep things running smoothly.
    You’ll bring:
    • CA/CPA qualification (or working towards)
    • Solid financial and management accounting experience
    • Strong attention to detail and a proactive mindset
    • Excellent communication skills and the ability to deliver meaningful commentary

    • Broad exposure across finance and commercial areas
    • Opportunity to get involved in acquisition activity and process improvements
    • Supportive team culture with hybrid working flexibility
