  • Drive continuous improvement through simplification and automation using the latest technology
  • Perform financial analysis and provide valuable insights to support decision-making 
  • Completing general ledger reviews and reconciliations to ensure compliance and data integrity in accounting data
  • Contribute to tax initiatives, policies and procedures, and manage process improvement projects.

What will make you successful:

  • 5-8 years’ postgraduate experience in a business services role or an in-house Tax/Corporate Accountant role

  • Attention to detail and strong problem-solving skills
  • The ability to manage priorities whilst being adaptable to changing circumstances
  • Strong planning and time management skills
  • Excellent communication and partnering skills and ability to work well in a team
  • A continuous improvement mindset.

This is a permanent, full-time role based in Sydney, with the ability to work flexibly from home.
