Are you an experienced Accountant looking for long-term stability where you can genuinely make an impact? Join this well-established construction business with a strong reputation and a steady pipeline of work, offering you the chance to become a valued part of the team for years to come. Working closely with senior leadership, you will play an important role in supporting business performance, financial decision-making and operational success. This hands-on position offers exposure across the full finance function and is ideal if you enjoy variety, take ownership of your work and value being closely involved in the day-to-day operations of the business. With the flexibility of either a full-time arrangement or a potential four-day working week, or even school hours, this role provides an excellent balance between responsibility and lifestyle.

Reporting directly to the Company Director, your responsibilities will include:

• Manage the general ledger, reconciliations and financial record maintenance.
• Prepare monthly, quarterly and annual financial reports, including month-end and year-end processes.

• Assist with budgeting, forecasting, cash flow monitoring and financial analysis.
• Drive continuous improvement across financial controls, reporting processes and audit support activities.

To be successful, you will bring previous experience in a general accounting position, ideally within the construction, trades, manufacturing, transport, logistics or broader blue-collar sectors. A degree in Accounting, Finance or a related discipline, or equivalent practical experience, will be highly regarded. You will also have a sound understanding of Australian GST, BAS and taxation requirements, experience using MYOB, Xero or similar accounting systems, and strong Excel skills.
