About COEX

Container Exchange (COEX) is the not-for-profit organisation appointed to manage and grow QLD's Containers for Change. Our vision is 'no container goes to waste' and we're committed to driving change for future generations. Since we began in 2018, we've kept more than 10 billion containers out of landfill, returning more than $1 billion in 10 cent refunds to households, charities and community groups. We are proud to be delivering positive environmental, social and economic impacts, and we're continuing to invest in innovative solutions that ensure all can access the benefits Containers for Change brings.

The Role

Reporting to our Finance Manager, you'll not only thrive in the detail of accounts payable and receivable, but are also energised by contributing to projects and process improvements. This will give you an opportunity to play a part in a major finance optimisation project that will shape how we work into the future.

Responsibilities
  • Accounts Payable & Receivable: own the end-to-end AP/AR function, from invoice processing and vendor management to debt collection and reconciliations.
  • Month End & Reporting: assist with journals, reconciliations, management reporting and statutory compliance (BAS, GST, PAYG).
  • Finance Transformation: get involved in automation, process reviews and system enhancements (Oracle Cloud ERP experience highly regarded).
  • Collaboration: partner with internal teams and external stakeholders to resolve queries and deliver timely, accurate financial information.
Who You Are

Our values - Be proactive, Value others, Work together, Contribute positively and Be transparent are at the heart of our exceptional culture. We are looking for team members who not only share these values, but eager to be part of a team that brings them to life. If you've worked in a business going through growth, change, or transformation, you'll understand the importance of adaptability, resilience and curiosity in this role. To ensure success in the role, you will bring:

  • 3-5 years experience in an Assistant Accountant or similar finance role (AP, AR, reconciliations, month end close).
  • Strong systems knowledge, ideally ERP systems (Oracle Cloud preferred) and advanced Excel skills.
  • A keen interest in process improvement, automation and finance transformation projects.
  • Ability to adapt to change, prioritise tasks and thrive in a fast-paced, growing business.
  • Tertiary qualifications in Accounting, Finance, or Commerce (CPA/CA qualified or studying towards accreditation desirable).
  • Eligibility to hold a Blue Card.
How to Apply

If you're ready to step into a role to gain hands on experience with projects that improve how finance works, we want to hear from you. Apply now through SEEK.
