ABOUT OFLOAD AND OUR MISSION

FreightTech is one of the most exciting spaces to be in right now, with the opportunity to transform one of the largest industries. Freight in Australia is a $66 billion market, yet it is analogue and has many inefficiencies: 30% of the time, trucks drive empty. Networks lack transparency, data flows are fragmented, and smaller transport operators face barriers to competing with the big players.
At Ofload, we’re changing how the freight industry operates and bringing it into the digital world. We leverage technology, data, and strategic partnerships to connect a growing roster of blue-chip customers with smaller, highly efficient transport operators. By reducing empty truck miles, improving visibility, and optimising supply chains, we’re driving smarter, greener, and more efficient operations that benefit businesses and the environment.
This isn’t just logistics—it’s FreightTech: a tech-powered transformation of an industry that is the backbone of the economy and touches everyone’s lives.

QUALIFICATIONS AND SKILLS:

• Degree in Accounting, Finance, or related discipline (CA/CPA qualified or working towards).
• Strong knowledge of accounting principles, Australian Accounting Standards, and relevant legislation.
• Proven experience in financial reporting, month-end processes, and balance sheet reconciliations.
• Proficiency in Excel and familiarity with ERP/accounting systems (Xero and/or NetSuite an advantage).
• Strong attention to detail with the ability to meet deadlines under pressure.
• Clear communicator who can build strong working relationships across teams.
• Proactive and adaptable, with a growth mindset and drive to improve processes.
  At Ofload we prioritise impact, aptitude and passion, so we’d encourage you to apply if you do not meet all the above criteria. When you apply, please let us know of any reasonable adjustments you may need during the interview process.
