Help us keep the dough — and the numbers — rolling.

At Daniel’s Donuts, we take donuts seriously. Accounting? Also seriously. But that doesn’t mean we have to sound boring.

We’ve built a cult following for classics like Nutella, Fresh Jam & Cream, and plenty of other dangerously delicious creations. Now, we’re growing fast — expanding our manufacturing, retail and wholesale operations and gone national into the likes of big players such as 7-Eleven and Bunnings.

Behind all those donuts is a serious business: high-volume manufacturing, a growing retail and wholesale network, private equity backing, and a founder-led team that knows the bakery business inside out.

We have also moved to a single ERP system — Odoo — and scaling what works. That means we need smart, capable people who enjoy getting stuck into the numbers, solving problems and helping build a high-performing team and culture.

That’s where you come in.

🍩 The role

As our Financial Accountant, you’ll work closely with the Group Financial Controller to keep the financial engine humming.

You’ll be across month-end, reconciliations, credit management, reporting, compliance, AR/AP and our shiny new Odoo environment.

In other words: you’ll make sure the numbers add up, the cash keeps moving and nothing gets left sitting in the financial equivalent of the oven too long.

You’ll work with people across AR/AP, our Philippines team, LK Tax and internal budget holders — so this is a role for someone who likes numbers and people.

🧮 What you’ll be doing

Month-end & reconciliations

• Help prepare and review month-end journals, including accruals, prepayments and intercompany entries.
• Own reconciliations for your assigned GL accounts and chase down anything that doesn’t quite smell right.
• Prepare balance sheet schedules and working papers for GFC review.
• Help pull together the group management accounts and provide useful variance explanations.
• Keep everything accurate, supported and audit-ready — because future-you will thank you.

💳 Credit management

You’ll be the guardian of our customer credit process.

• Assess credit applications and recommend appropriate credit limits.
• Review customer payment behaviour and credit risk.
• Maintain the customer credit register and keep limits up to date.
• Put credit holds in place when customers breach agreed terms.
• Escalate high-risk debtors, disputes and potential bad debts to the GFC with recommendations.
• Get the right approvals for higher-risk or higher-value credit decisions.

Basically, you’ll help make sure we’re selling plenty of donuts without giving away the bakery for free.

📊 Reporting & compliance

• Prepare BAS/GST reconciliations and work with the LK Group Tax team to meet lodgement deadlines.
• Assist with statutory accounts and external audit requirements.
• Prepare audit working papers and respond to queries promptly.
• Support PAYG, FBT, payroll tax, WorkCover and other compliance reporting as required.

💰 AR & AP oversight

• Support the GFC with cash flow forecasting and day-to-day AR/AP activities.
• Keep an eye on the AR ageing and follow up overdue customers.
• Help manage claims and escalate unresolved issues.
• Oversee AP processing to make sure invoices are approved, coded correctly and paid on time.
• Support the Payroll Manager with payroll payments.
• Perform regular AR and AP reconciliations back to the GL.

💻 Odoo & data integrity

We have moved to new ERP - Odoo, and we want our financial data to be as clean as a freshly glazed donut.

You’ll:

• Process accounting transactions accurately in Odoo.
• Help maintain a clean, reliable general ledger.
• Spot data-quality issues and raise them before they become bigger problems.
• Support system clean-up and data integrity initiatives.

🧮 What you’ll bring

You’ll be someone who:

• Has 5+ years of progressive experience in financial accounting or related roles.
• Has hands-on experience supporting month-end close processes, including journals, reconciliations and reporting.
• Holds a CA, CPA or equivalent professional qualification, or is currently working towards one.
• Knows their way around month-end accounting and reconciliations.
• Understands credit management and likes keeping risk under control.
• Has experience with GST/BAS and financial compliance.
• Can confidently oversee AR/AP processes.
• Is comfortable working with ERP systems — Odoo experience is a bonus.
• Has exceptional attention to detail and takes pride in getting the numbers right.
• Can spot when something doesn't look right and isn't afraid to ask questions.
• Can work collaboratively across different teams and locations.
• Likes a fast-moving environment where things are growing, changing and occasionally getting a little messy.

🍩 Why Daniel’s Donuts?

Because you’ll be joining a business with big ambitions, a genuinely loved brand and plenty of room to grow.

We’re building the foundations for national expansion, investing in systems and people, and creating a culture where high performance and safety go hand in hand.

And yes, there will probably be donuts.

If you’re a Financial Accountant who likes good numbers, good people and the occasional Nutella-filled reward, we’d love to hear from you.
