Apply
About the Company:

This business is in a really steady patch of growth and has recently upgraded to a new job-costing system, so things are becoming more streamlined and modern behind the scenes. They work on high-value, technical jobs for local and international clients, and the vibe is very down-to-earth - people pitch in, have a bit of a laugh, and genuinely care about doing a good job.
You’ll be joining a small, stable team who’ve been here a long time, and they’re excited to bring someone new into the fold.

About the Role: 

This is a busy, hands-on Accounts Administrator role that’s roughly 80% accounts and 20% general admin. 

You’ll work across:

Accounts Payable
  • Processing supplier and contractor invoices
  • Supporting monthly payment runs (large volumes, very detailed, and high accuracy)
  • Managing a broad supplier base
Accounts Receivable
  • Assisting with fortnightly invoicing cycles (high-volume, time-sensitive)
  • Preparing invoice backup and supporting documentation
  • Receipting, reconciliations, and maintaining clean ledgers
  • Job Costing & Timesheets
  • Allocating subcontractor and internal labour costs to job numbers
  • Processing timesheets 
  • Managing subcontractor data (high volume)
Administration (20%)
  • Some front desk/reception-style tasks (phones, enquiries)
  • Shared supporting of bookings, email queries, and general office tasks
  • Helping the team stay organised during tight billing cycles
  • You’ll work closely with two experienced team members who’ve been in the business for 7-8 years, with overall reporting into the CFO.

About You: 

You’re an experienced Accounts Administrator who’s comfortable working with high-volume AP, timesheets, and detailed data. You enjoy structure and accuracy, but you also like having variety in your day - some accounts, some admin, some interaction with the team, and a bit of everything in between.

You’re the kind of person who notices when something doesn’t balance, who follows up when something looks off, and who takes pride in keeping things tidy and running smoothly. You're organised, steady under pressure, and happy working to timeframes.

You’ll enjoy this role if you like being part of a friendly, practical team, where people are hands-on, supportive, and not overly formal. You’re approachable, unflappable, and happy to help out where needed. Most of all, you're looking for a long-term role where you can become a “go-to” person the team relies on and trusts.
