  • About the Role
    Are you an experienced bookkeeper or finance professional looking for a hands-on, high-impact role in property development and construction? This newly created Senior Bookkeeper role is your chance to be a key player in a small, dynamic finance team supporting premium Brisbane developments.

    You’ll work closely with the Chief Financial Officer to manage day-to-day financial operations, payroll, supplier processes, and project claims. Your work will directly contribute to the success of high-value property projects, giving you exposure across multiple entities and finance systems.

    Key Responsibilities
    • Manage the finance email inbox and distribute queries efficiently
    • Data entry of invoices and progress claims into Procore and MYOB
    • Process payroll: prepare pay runs from timesheets, apply construction award knowledge, review allowances, and ensure accurate PAYG withholding
    • Assist with accounts payable at month-end, including invoice approvals and cashflow preparation
    • Manage supplier end-of-month statements and reconciliations
    • Maintain financial workpapers including retention trust account records (with support)
    • Perform bank reconciliations and maintain data accuracy
    • Ad hoc office support including answering phones and mail
    About You
    • Proven experience in bookkeeping or finance officer roles, ideally within property development or construction
    • Strong MYOB experience and Excel skills above beginner level
    • Quick to learn project systems (Procore experience not essential)
    • Pragmatic, approachable, and emotionally mature – able to work closely with a small team, speak up, and solve problems
    • Detail-oriented, hardworking, and reliable with strong organisational skills
    Why You’ll Love This Role
    • High-impact role: your work directly supports premium property projects
    • Small team, big results: operate closely with leadership in a fluid, collaborative environment
    • Exposure to end-to-end finance processes including payroll, AP/AR, project claims, and cashflow
    • Newly created role with responsibility, autonomy, and career growth
    If you’re ready to take ownership of a hands-on, high-profile bookkeeping role and grow your career in property & construction, apply now!
