- Prepare accurate monthly financials and management reporting
- Administer payroll, superannuation, and payroll tax (with oversight to ensure everything is compliant)
- Handle BAS, GST, activity statements, and trust-level reporting
- Support loan portfolio accounting, including bank recs and repayment tracking
- Contribute to liquidity planning, budgeting and performance reporting for a large debt facility
- Play a key role in audit readiness and compliance — especially for warehouse funders
What we’re looking for:
- 5+ years accounting experience, ideally with a background in financial services, fintech, or lending
- Someone who understands the mechanics of loan accounting and trust structures
- Experience preparing financial reports and managing payroll and tax compliance
- Strong working knowledge of Xero and Excel
- Ideally a second mover from Big 4, someone ready to take full ownership of an in-house role
- High energy, hands-on, and ready to roll up their sleeves
