Melbourne, Victoria, Australia alignr Full time $90,000 - $110,000 per year

We're Alignr — a modern recruitment partner helping ambitious businesses hire smarter and scale faster. This time, we're exclusively partnering with leading Film & TV Financing company with a range of services across the entertainment industry, based in South Yarra.

Are you looking for…

  • An accounting role that covers more than typical accounting duties?
  • A chance to take more ownership as a business scales?
  • A tight-knit team, casual energy, but high-performance culture within the Film & Tv industry?

This isn't your average month-end grind. It's about managing the core accounting while supporting a division — a senior debt film financier handling big transactions across global markets.

What's in it for you?

  • 12 Month Fixed-term contract (full-time) - with potential to extend or go perm for the right person
  • Paying up to $90,000 - $110,000 Base + Super
  • Open to part time - 4 days a week
  • South Yarra office (Toorak Rd) - right near South Yarra station
  • Real ownership — work side-by-side with CFO & CEO, help shape the future of finance
  • Cross-border collaboration with global stakeholders
  • A tight-knit, sharp team that moves fast and supports each other
  • Office-first environment

Your next company & team

They're small (20 people), lean, and growing — and they need an accountant who's ready to own the numbers, work closely with the CFO, and get hands-on with a multi-million-dollar loan book in film finance.

They are a private investment and finance business, operating across film & TV finance. Fun, casual style but a team of high performers who adapt quickly the rapid changes in this amazing industry.

The CFO is commercial, down-to-earth, and wants someone he can rely on. You'll also work alongside their Bookkeeper.

This is a high-impact, high-visibility role where your work will touch everything — from reporting to treasury to international finance deals.

What You'll Do

  • Own month-end close, reconciliations, and core financial reporting
  • Support and eventually lead financial modelling for new film loans
  • Track complex loan flows and help manage the treasury function
  • Assist with collections, repayment monitoring, and fund management
  • Prepare borrower and investor reports
  • Review loan documentation and extract key financial info
  • Work closely with internal teams, the CFO, and global stakeholders
  • Contribute to building new finance systems and structures

You'll Thrive Here If You…

  • Are an accountant who wants more than just journal entries
  • Love building new processes, not just maintaining old ones
  • Enjoy wearing multiple hats in a small, fast-paced environment
  • Can collaborate cross-functionally and globally
  • Are curious about film finance, capital movements, and treasury
  • Love to collaborate and find the answer

This Role Isn't For You If…

  • You want a rigid structure with clearly defined tasks only
  • You don't like to collaborate or bring any energy to the group
  • You like to receive orders and not be proactive
  • You prefer to work slowly or wait for direction
  • You don't like working onsite or being interrupted by change

Must-Haves:Just as important as the technical skills in this role is your personality and how you fit into the team. They're looking for someone who can bring a fresh perspective, add balance, and bring a bit of energy and drive to the group. From a financial or operational perspective, this isn't insanely complex. What they are looking for is a strong foundation, curiosity and a great character to add a new dynamic to their team. 

  • Ideally, between 3-8 years of experience in Accounting
  • Extra points if you have corporate or financial accounting experience
  • Strong Excel skills
  • Ability to manage reporting, reconciliations, and financial operations independently
  • Comfort working in small, lean environments - bringing your own unique personality
  • Commercial mindset and ability to interpret legal/financial documents
  • Willingness to learn and grow with the role

Nice-to-Haves:

  • Experience in SMEs or fast-paced environments
  • CPA or close to completion
  • Familiarity with film finance, property, or private equity
  • Exposure to treasury or loan management
  • Experience with Xero or interest in implementing new finance tools

Hiring Process

  • Step 1: Quick alignment call with Alignr
  • Step 2: Interview with CFO
  • Step 3: Interview with CEO & Bookkeeper - maybe more meet and greets
  • Step 4: Offer & onboarding plan
