Description

Position: Senior Management Accountant Salary: PHP 120,000 to PHP 190,000/month depending on experience Working Hours & Conditions: Mondays to Fridays; 9:00AM to 5:00PM Australian Standard Time Holidays: Australian Holidays OVERVIEW: The company is seeking a Senior Management Accountant to join our team as a full-time offshore professional based in the Philippines. This is a high-impact, strategic finance role that goes well beyond traditional management accounting — you will own the full finance function, drive quarterly and long-range forecasting, support strategic planning, and be a true commercial partner to the Australian leadership team. You will take responsibility for revenue, cost, and resource forecasting across the company's growing portfolio of energy infrastructure projects — substations, powerlines, BESS, solar, and wind — while producing the business intelligence reports that guide executive decision-making. You will also be the integration owner between Procore (project management) and Xero (accounting), ensuring seamless financial data flow across the business. As the company is still a new business, we are looking for someone to build alongside us — designing and owning our finance systems from the ground up, and growing into a Finance Manager or Head of Finance role as the business scales. RESPONSIBILITIES: 1. Bookkeeping, Payroll & Transactional Finance Manage day-to-day bookkeeping including accounts payable, accounts receivable, and bank reconciliations. Process supplier invoices, employee expense claims, and credit card reconciliations. Maintain the general ledger and chart of accounts, ensuring accurate and timely data entry. Prepare and lodge BAS/GST returns and manage payroll tax obligations. Manage payroll processes and ensure compliance with relevant awards, employment agreements, and statutory obligations including PAYG, superannuation, payroll tax, and WorkCover. 2. Monthly Business Reporting Prepare and deliver comprehensive monthly business reports including profit and loss, balance sheet, and cash flow statements. Produce an executive-level business performance report each month with clear narrative, insights, and recommendations — not just numbers. Deliver variance analysis against budget and forecast with actionable commentary for leadership. Produce project-level financial reporting across the full infrastructure project portfolio. Present financial performance insights to the Director and senior leadership team. 3. Quarterly Forecasting Own and lead the quarterly forecasting cycle across the business — revenue, costs, resources, and cash. Prepare and present quarterly forecast packs to leadership, incorporating actuals-to-date, pipeline visibility, and updated assumptions. Maintain a rolling 12-month and 24-month forecast model, refreshed each quarter with updated project, pipeline, and operational data. Identify risks and opportunities within each quarterly cycle and present clear scenarios to support decision-making. 4. Revenue Forecasting Build and maintain detailed revenue forecasting models by project, contract, and business segment. Translate project pipeline and contract milestones into forward revenue schedules. Align revenue recognition to accounting standards, including percentage-of-completion and milestone-based billing. Work with project managers to validate forecast assumptions and update revenue projections as contracts progress. Monitor and report on revenue actuals vs. forecast, flagging material variances promptly. 5. Cost Forecasting Develop and own a comprehensive cost forecasting model across labour, materials, subcontractors, overheads, and corporate costs. Track project cost performance against budgets and updated forecasts at a granular level. Identify cost overruns, margin erosion, and budget risks early — with clear analysis and recommendations. Prepare work-in-progress (WIP) schedules and ensure cost accruals are accurately reflected in management accounts. Deliver cost variance analysis with root cause commentary each month and quarter. 6. Resource Forecasting Build and maintain a resource forecast model covering staffing, subcontractor capacity, and project resourcing needs. Translate project pipeline and delivery schedules into forward resource requirements and cost implications. Work with project and operations teams to align resource plans with financial forecasts. Flag resourcing constraints, cost pressures, or capacity gaps to leadership with recommended actions. Support headcount planning and workforce cost modelling as the business scales. 7. Strategic Planning Support Support the Director and leadership team in the annual strategic planning cycle — translating strategic priorities into financial plans. Build financial models for growth scenarios, new project opportunities, tendering, and capital allocation decisions. Contribute to board reporting and investor-ready financial packs, including KPI dashboards and forward-looking financial summaries. Provide commercial analysis to support business development decisions — pricing, margins, bid/no-bid, and investment cases. Assist with ad hoc strategic analysis and financial modelling as the business grows and evolves. 8. Project Accounting Establish and maintain project cost centres and job costing structures. Track project costs against budgets, including labour, materials, subcontractors, and overheads. Analyse project margins and flag cost overruns or commercial risks to project managers and the Director. Support claims management, progress billing, and variation tracking on active contracts. 9. Cash Flow & Working Capital Prepare and maintain weekly and monthly cash flow forecasts to support operational decision-making. Monitor debtor and creditor positions, ensuring timely collections and payments. Manage working capital to support project delivery and business operations. Support banking and financing relationships with accurate, timely reporting. 10. Procore–Xero Integration Management Own the integration between Procore (project management platform) and Xero (accounting platform) — ensuring accurate, timely, and reliable data flow between systems. Configure, maintain, and troubleshoot the Procore–Xero integration, working with vendors and technical resources as required. Establish data governance processes to ensure project financial data in Procore aligns with the general ledger in Xero. Identify and resolve discrepancies between Procore project cost data and Xero financial records. Train and support project managers and operations team members on Procore financial data entry and coding disciplines. Drive continuous improvement of the integration setup as company's project portfolio and business complexity grows. 11. Finance Systems & Process Ownership Support the design and implementation of company's finance systems and processes from the ground up. Establish financial controls, policies, and procedures appropriate for a growing infrastructure business. Own and continuously improve the finance function — systems, reporting cadences, and workflows. Liaise with external accountants and auditors as required. Drive automation and efficiency in financial processes as the business scales. QUALIFICATIONS: Essential CPA or CA qualified (or equivalent international qualification). 7–12 years of management accounting experience, ideally within construction, infrastructure, energy, or project-based businesses. Demonstrated experience in quarterly and annual forecasting — revenue, cost, and resource dimensions. Strong project accounting background: job costing, WIP management, margin analysis, and progress billing. Proven experience producing board-level or executive business reports with narrative insights, not just financial statements. Experience supporting strategic planning processes and building financial models for business decision-making. Proficiency in Xero and advanced Excel / Google Sheets. Hands-on experience managing or working with Procore–Xero integration (or similar construction/project management to accounting integrations). Excellent written and spoken English — able to communicate clearly with Australian leadership. Personal Attributes Senior-level commercial acumen — you think like a business partner, not just a bookkeeper. Builder mentality — energised by creating systems and processes from scratch, not just maintaining them. Strategic thinker — able to connect financial data to business strategy and communicate the 'so what' clearly. Self-starter who thrives in a lean, fast-paced environment with minimal supervision. Strong attention to detail balanced with the ability to see the bigger picture. Excellent communication skills — able to present financial information clearly to non-financial stakeholders in Australia. Ownership mindset — treats the finance function as their own and takes pride in its quality and accuracy. Values alignment with company's mission of shaping a better tomorrow, together. PREFERRED SKILLS (nice to have): Desirable Experience in the energy infrastructure, renewables, or EPC/D&C sectors. Familiarity with EPC/D&C contract structures and progress claim processes. Experience building finance systems and processes in a start-up or scale-up environment. Financial systems implementation or migration experience. Experience working in an offshore / remote finance role supporting an Australian business. What We Offer Competitive salary of PHP 120,000–190,000 per month (depending on experience). Full-time, permanent offshore role with a fast-growing Australian infrastructure business. Genuine career progression — clear path to Finance Manager / Head of Finance as the company scales. Strategic, senior-level work — you will be a true commercial partner, not just a transactional accountant. Direct access to Australian leadership — your insights drive real business decisions. Opportunity to build the finance function of a high-growth infrastructure business from the ground up. Meaningful work supporting Australia's energy transition — substations, powerlines, BESS, solar, and wind. Career Progression This is a senior role designed to grow with the company.
