Melbourne, Victoria, Australia Planned Resources Full time $60,000 - $80,000 per year

Are you a meticulous numbers wizard who loves keeping things flowing smoothly behind the scenes? Do you thrive in an environment where accuracy, compliance, and efficiency are valued as much as a supportive team culture? We're looking for an Accounts Payable Officer to join a LG finance team in a prestigious inner-eastern location (think tree-lined streets, boutique cafés, and a strong sense of community).

The Role

As an integral part of the Accounts Payable function, you'll ensure the creditors are paid accurately and on time, in line with statutory requirements, policies, and procedures. You'll work closely with colleagues across all levels of the organisation, liaising with suppliers, auditors, and other stakeholders to maintain the highest standards of financial administration.

What You'll Be Doing

  • Processing creditor invoices, ensuring compliance with taxation and organisational standards.
  • Managing ad hoc payment requests, grants, refunds, and reimbursements with care and accuracy.
  • Maintaining and reconciling supplier accounts, liaising to resolve queries efficiently.
  • Supporting colleagues with accounts payable guidance and advice.
  • Identifying opportunities for continuous improvement to streamline processes and enhance service.

About You

  • Proven experience in an accounts payable function within a medium to large organisation.
  • Solid understanding of accounting and accounts payable principles.
  • High-level computer literacy, with strong spreadsheet and system skills.
  • Exceptional accuracy and attention to detail.
  • The ability to multitask, adapt, and thrive under pressure.
  • Strong interpersonal skills and the ability to build lasting relationships with internal and external stakeholders.
  • A proactive mindset with a flair for explaining complex processes clearly.

Why You'll Love Working Here

  • Join a vibrant, customer-focused team where collaboration and innovation are encouraged.
  • Work in a prestigious, inner-eastern suburban setting with all the perks of a well-resourced, forward-thinking organisation.
  • Make a tangible impact on the community by supporting smooth financial operations behind the scenes.
  • Opportunities for professional development and continuous improvement initiatives.

If accuracy, organisation, and teamwork are your superpowers, and you want to contribute to a culture that values integrity, collaboration, and customer excellence, we want to hear from you.
