  • Hands-on experience with accounting software such as Xero and payment systems like NAB Connect and Stripe (preferred).
  • High proficiency in Excel and experience with reconciliation and month-end processes.
  • Familiarity with Australian tax and payroll legislation; knowledge of NZ/US payroll is a plus.
  • High attention to detail and accuracy in financial data entry and reconciliation.
  • Ethical, trustworthy, and confidential in handling sensitive financial and payroll information.
  • Organised and capable of managing competing priorities and deadlines.
  • Excellent communication skills for liaising with internal and external stakeholders.
  • A proactive team player who is willing to assist in broader finance initiatives.

  • We're a tight-knit team that values data, creative thinking and winning together
  • We're a high-growth team building something big (and fun). If you're looking for meaningful work, a clear path for growth, and a crew that's going places, folks, this is it.

The Perks:

  • Work alongside eComm's sharpest minds
  • A values-driven team who cares (like, genuinely)
  • A front-row seat to the brands changing the online game
