About us

Silicon Quantum Computing is pioneering the future of quantum technology. As the world's first company to manufacture qubits with atomic precision, we're delivering quantum advantage today, not decades from now.

Founded by Professor Michelle Simmons, one of the world's leading materials scientists, SQC has achieved major breakthroughs including the first single-atom transistor and the first integrated circuit built with atomic precision. Our Chair, Simon Segars, former CEO of ARM, brings deep global experience as we scale our technology and commercial impact.

Our quantum machine learning chip, Watermelon, is already accelerating AI in ways classical systems can't match. We're generating significant revenue and working closely with multinational partners to solve complex problems with quantum solutions.

SQC is a fast-paced, high-accountability environment where people grow quickly and contribute meaningfully. If you're excited by deep tech, ambitious about your career, and ready to help shape the future of computing, we'd love to hear from you.

About the role

We're looking for a highly organised and proactive Accounts Payable Officer to support the smooth running of our day-to-day operations. This broad and hands-on role sits at the heart of our business, covering accounts payable, payroll coordination, purchasing and office management.

Reporting to the Finance Director, you'll play a key role in maintaining a productive and professional environment across both our corporate and technical teams. You'll manage end-to-end accounts payable and procurement processes, coordinate payroll, oversee office operations, and provide reliable administrative support to leadership and staff.

This role suits someone with strong communication and negotiation skills, a sharp eye for detail, and a practical, can-do mindset. If you thrive in a fast-paced environment and enjoy keeping things running smoothly behind the scenes, we'd love to hear from you.

Role responsibilities

• Finance and Payroll: Manage accounts payable, invoice approvals and payments, monthly payroll processing (including payroll tax and superannuation), bank and supplier reconciliations, general ledger reconciliations, IAS/BAS preparation and lodgement, and fixed asset management
• Procurement & Vendor Management:Process purchase orders, obtain approvals in line with delegation protocols, manage vendor relationships, and negotiate service contracts
• Compliance & WHS: Maintain compliance with office policies and WHS standards, including first aid and safety supplies
• Budgeting & Reporting:Assist with budgeting for office operations and track related expenditures to ensure accurate financial records

Your experience

• Certificate IV in Accounting or equivalent experience
• Demonstrable experience across AP and payroll
• Hands-on experience with contemporary accounting platforms (we use Xero)
• Working knowledge of payroll tax, superannuation, IAS/BAS
• Strong prioritisation and stakeholder support
• High attention to detail and a proactive approach to process iteration and improvement

The recruitment process

For roles at SQC, expect 3-4 interviews, meeting a few members of the team and focusing on your core eligibility for the role, your skills and how they align, and finally your values and how they align. We'll give you a more specific runthrough if you're successful in making it to the first interview.

As part of our obligations to our clients, we require that successful candidates submit to background checks, including a National Police Check, Right to Work checks, as well as employment and qualifications verification. We won't contact anyone until we're confident there's a fit between SQC and yourself.

How to apply

The best and simplest way is to apply directly here, rather than messaging anyone on the SQC team directly. If you have any questions that you'd like answered before committing to applying, please feel free to email us at
