About the role 

This is not your traditional bookkeeper role – you’ll coach clients, run training, and lead app integrations and workflow automation. You’ll see the difference your improvements make, fast. 

As a Bookkeeper, you’ll play a pivotal role in helping clients modernise their finance operations. Working alongside our high-performing team, you will be supported to succeed and have access to innovative tools and a workplace culture that values your contribution. 

Key responsibilities include: 

• Managing day-to-day financial operations for a range of clients using leading software (e.g., Xero, MYOB). 
• Delivering client training sessions on best-practice workflows, app usage, and integrations; supporting onboarding to cloud tools and simple automations. 
• Processing accounts payable/receivable, reconciling bank/credit card accounts, and preparing BAS, IAS, and Payroll Tax lodgements. 
• Administering payroll in line with Fair Work and ATO requirements, including superannuation contributions. 
• Assisting with monthly/quarterly management reporting, cash-flow monitoring, budgeting, and forecasting. 
• Continuously improving processes and helping implement system upgrades across the bookkeeping function. 
• Maintaining confidentiality and managing risk with sound governance principles—proactively surfacing potential exposures. 
• Championing a culture of care, authenticity, collaboration, and opportunity. 

About you 

You’re a motivated professional with a passion for client success, strong communication skills, and a drive to make a meaningful impact. You thrive in collaborative environments and are ready to grow with a firm that values integrity, initiative, and innovation. 

We welcome applicants from all backgrounds – whether you’re just starting out or bring years of bookkeeping experience. What matters most is your attitude and approach. Along with a Certificate IV in Bookkeeping/Accounting (or equivalent experience), you: 

• Have proven experience in bookkeeping within a professional services environment (preferably accounting practice). 
• Are proficient in Xero, MYOB, or similar accounting software. 
• Have strong attention to detail, with an appreciation of the importance of accuracy & quality control. 
• Have excellent communication skills, with the ability to work autonomously and collaborate as part of a team. 
• Are adaptable and embrace change and new ideas comfortably. 
• Are passionate about training, technology, and process improvement. 

This is a fantastic opportunity to join a close-knit team and learn best practice in bookkeeping, client training, and cloud app integration.
