Senior Bookkeeper — Australian Accounting Practice | WFH

If you have built your career inside an Australian accounting or bookkeeping practice, know MYOB AccountRight deeply, and want to do serious, high-quality work from home without the instability of freelancing, this role is built for you.

This is a dedicated, full-time position supporting a professional accounting, financial reporting, and bookkeeping practice — and it is designed for someone who wants to stay, grow, and be genuinely valued.

THE ROLE

You will manage a portfolio of client files end-to-end, handling everything from bank reconciliations and ledger maintenance through to payroll processing and BAS-ready account reconciliations. The scope is broad but precise — this practice expects clean files, accurate records, and a bookkeeper who can operate independently without needing their hand held. Your work directly underpins the financial reporting and compliance output that the practice delivers to its clients.

WHAT YOU WILL DO

▸Perform bank and credit card reconciliations across multiple client files, ensuring every transaction is accurately recorded and fully reconciled

▸Manage accounts payable and accounts receivable functions for client accounts, keeping ledgers current and accurate at all times

▸Process and reconcile payroll for client businesses, including reconciliation of payroll accounts and associated liabilities

▸Maintain general ledger integrity through accurate transaction coding and ongoing ledger maintenance across the full client portfolio

▸Reconcile GST, PAYG withholding, and payroll accounts in preparation for BAS and tax work

▸Review client accounts to identify discrepancies, unusual transactions, or errors, and take appropriate corrective action without escalating avoidable issues

▸Maintain accurate, well-organised client files and supporting documentation in line with the practice's standards

WHAT YOU BRING

✔Genuine, hands-on proficiency in MYOB AccountRight — not surface-level familiarity, but the ability to open a client file and work independently from day one

✔Demonstrated experience across bank reconciliations, accounts payable and receivable, payroll processing, general ledger maintenance, and GST and PAYG reconciliations

✔Proven track record managing multiple client files simultaneously, prioritising effectively under real deadline pressure

✔Experience working inside an Australian accounting or bookkeeping practice environment — this is treated as near-essential, not optional

✔Ability to work 9am to 6pm Australian Eastern time, Monday to Friday, logging a full 7.5 to 8 productive hours per day within MPM

✔Willingness to learn and operate MPM as the primary tool for time-tracking and job management

WORK ARRANGEMENT

This is a full work-from-home role. You will work from your own home office, and you must have a quiet, dedicated workspace and a reliable internet connection capable of supporting professional remote work.

Staff X is a certified Great Place to Work employer in the Philippines for multiple consecutive years. Benefits include:

✦HMO health insurance

✦Company-provided laptop or desktop computer

COMPENSATION

Competitive salary commensurate with experience, plus the full Staff X benefits package.

COMMITMENT

This is a full-time, dedicated role. The client and Staff X invest heavily in onboarding, training, and integrating this person into a long-term team. We are looking for someone who is ready to commit fully, not someone exploring a side arrangement, managing multiple clients, or running parallel freelance work. If you are currently freelancing and not ready to step into a single dedicated role, this is not the right opportunity for you. If you have a full-time job and are looking for a second income, please do not apply. The right person for this role genuinely wants a stable, long-term career with a single employer who invests in their growth. This is a permanent position. We hire people we intend to keep for years, not months.
