• Managing insurances, WHS and workers compensation
• Overseeing the fortnightly pay cycle for 100+ contractors and contingent staff, including super
• Mentoring the Accounts Assistant, who looks after contractor pay and is keen to grow
• Improving processes and systems as the business evolves

What We're Looking For:

• CPA or CA qualified
• Hands on experience in a small to mid size business, not just oversight
• Contingent pay cycle, debtor finance or audit experience
• Recruitment or labour hire background is a plus
• MYOB experience preferred, plus exposure to Astute, JobAdder, Employment Hero and Dext
• Articulate and professional, with the confidence to represent the business to consultants and clients
• Consistent and dependable

Why Apply

• Three days a week in a central CBD office
• Real ownership of the function and a weekly catch up with the Managing Director
• A small, close team of consultants plus two remote team members
• A keen Accounts Assistant to mentor and develop
• Variety across audits, government reporting, payroll and budgeting
