- Non-ongoing opportunity of 7 months, with the possibility of extending to 12 months

The Library is seeking an experienced and motivated professional for an **EL 1 Assistant Director, Financial Accounting**role.
This is a non-ongoing opportunity from 17 July 2025 until 12 February 2025, with the potential to extend up to 12 months.

**The Role**
This role offers a unique opportunity to lead a small team during a critical period, playing a key role in financial management in a cultural institution.

This includes working with the Australian National Audit Office (ANAO) to complete the end-of-year audit, as well as attending the Audit and Enterprise Risk Committee and Library Council meetings to provide support and additional financial insight when required.

You will oversee end-to-end accounting functions including accounts payable and receivable, general ledger entries and maintenance and timely and accurate month-end-closure.

To succeed in this role, you need a strong understanding of Australian Accounting Standards and solid technical accounting skills. You will also need to show initiative and have the desire to improve business processes by working with stakeholders across different branches.

**The Opportunity**
This role is available to ongoing National Library of Australia and APS employees as a temporary transfer at level and/or a temporary performance (acting) opportunity from 17 July 2025 to 12 February 2025, with the possibility of extension to 12 months.

**Please discuss the possibility of release with your manager before applying.
