About the Role

Reporting directly to the Business Owner, you'll oversee all financial operations of the agency, ensuring compliance, accuracy, and strategic planning that supports business growth.

  • Liaise with external accountants and advisors to ensure financial accuracy and compliance.
  • Drive internal benchmarking, process improvements, and cost-efficiency initiatives.
  • Support and oversee all employee daily operations.
  • Manage recruitment and onboarding processes — advertising, interviewing, and welcoming new team members.
  • Maintain and update employment contracts, HR records, and ensure Fair Work compliance.
  • Support leadership with workforce planning, staff development, and performance management.
  • Assist with trust account management, contract processing, settlements, and general office operations when required.
What You'll Bring
  • Proven experience in accounting, finance, or business operations.
  • Strong understanding of BAS preparation, payroll, and cash flow management.
  • Knowledge of trust accounting
  • Certificates in accounting or bookkeeping preferred
  • Sound knowledge of Fair Work legislation and HR best practices.
  • Excellent organisational and multitasking skills.
  • Strong communication, problem-solving, and interpersonal abilities.
  • Proficiency with Xero and Google Workspace.
  • A professional, approachable manner and a genuine interest in helping people succeed.

About You

You're reliable, detail-oriented, and take pride in your work. You balance professionalism with warmth, and you're passionate about creating a positive team culture. You enjoy variety, can juggle competing priorities, and are motivated by contributing to a business's success.
