• Full-Cycle AP & AR Management: Process supplier invoices, prepare payment batches for authorization, resolve account discrepancies, generate customer invoices, and professionally pursue overdue accounts receivable.

• Payroll & Statutory Compliance Execution: Manage payroll processing, leave accruals, PAYG withholding, and superannuation contributions; file STP reports; prepare GST reviews and supporting documentation for Business Activity Statement (BAS) lodgments.

• Month-End Reporting & Internal Controls: Perform balance sheet and general ledger reconciliations; generate profit-and-loss, balance sheet, cash-flow, and aged ledger reports; maintain strict document control, data confidentiality, and segregation of duties.

• Process Optimization & Administration: Collaborate with leadership to document, streamline, and automate bookkeeping workflows in Xero while assisting accountants with year-end compliance requirements.

What You Bring

• Education & Certifications: Degree or Diploma in Accounting, Certificate IV in Accounting/Bookkeeping, or relevant higher qualification. Xero Certification and TPB BAS Agent registration are highly desirable.

• The Experience: 2 to 3 years of hands-on Australian bookkeeping experience, demonstrating expertise in Xero, AP/AR operations, payroll, STP reporting, and BAS preparation.

• Technical Mastery: Intermediate to advanced Xero capability, solid knowledge of Australian GST rules, PAYG withholding, superannuation, and strong Microsoft Excel skills.

• Internal Controls & Security: Comprehensive understanding of financial control framework, payment approval protocols, and strict confidentiality standards. A National Police Check (or willingness to obtain one) is required.
