Supplier & Stakeholder Management Liaise directly with suppliers regarding invoices, statements, and queries. Work closely with internal teams to resolve billing and inventory issues. Payroll & Compliance Process payroll accurately and on time, adhering to Australian statutory payroll obligations. Maintain payroll records, leave balances, and reconciliations. Ensure compliance with relevant Australian tax and superannuation requirements. Month-End Support Perform month-end reconciliations (bank, inventory, balance sheet accounts). Assist with month-end close activities and reporting support. Required Skills and Qualifications: 5+ years’ experience in a Senior Bookkeeper or equivalent role, ideally in inventory-based or multi-entity businesses. Strong inventory accounting experience (mandatory) and hands-on proficiency with CIN7 and Xero. Solid understanding of Australian bookkeeping standards, payroll, tax, and statutory obligations. High attention to detail, strong reconciliation skills, and ability to work independently. Clear written and verbal English communication skills, with experience liaising with suppliers and internal teams. Comfortable working remotely with Australian-based teams and managing deadlines. Reliable internet connection and professional home office setup. Proficiency with Xero (essential) and Inventory Management System (CIN7 ideal). Experience with Google Workspace (Sheets, Docs, Drive) and approval/workflow tools is an advantage.
