Accounts Assistant (6-months)

Apply
About the Company:
This is a well-established NZ business with manufacturing and installation operations across New Zealand and Australia. 

The culture is relaxed, friendly and down-to-earth - no politics, no egos, and a genuine open-door approach from leadership. The team is mostly office-based, collaborative, and supportive, with flexibility considered once you’re up to speed.

About the Role: 
We’re recruiting an Accounts Assistant to join a friendly, close-knit finance team. This position has been created to help ease pressure following recent growth and increased workload, and will support the smooth running of day-to-day finance operations.

This is a practical, transactional role suited to someone who enjoys being busy, likes structure, and takes pride in getting the details right.

Reporting to the Finance Manager, and working closely with Assistant Accountants, this role will focus on core transactional finance tasks, including:
  • Accounts Payable & Accounts Receivable processing
  • Invoicing and debt collection (first-round follow-ups)
  • Handling supplier queries and supporting AP communications
  • Assisting with supplier reconciliations
  • Setting up new jobs/projects in the system and loading estimates
  • General finance data maintenance and support
The core system is Greentree (manual processing), with some exposure to Xero. You’ll receive training and day-to-day support from experienced team members.

This is a full-time, 40-hour position, initially offered as a 6-month contract, with strong potential to extend.

About You: 
You’ll thrive in this role if you enjoy being hands-on and take pride in keeping things accurate and organised. Ideally, you’ll have some experience in an Accounts Assistant or Finance Administrator role and feel comfortable working with manual systems and data entry.

You’ll have exposure to AP and AR processes, be detail-focused and reliable, and communicate clearly with the people around you. You’re someone who’s happy to ask questions, learn as you go, and support the wider team.

You don’t need to be loud or outgoing - introverts and extroverts alike will fit in well here. What matters most is a positive attitude, accuracy, responsiveness, and being able to keep up with a busy workload!

What’s on Offer
  • Penrose / Onehunga location
  • Casual dress code
  • On-site parking
  • Supportive leadership with a genuine open-door policy
  • A chance to make a real contribution to a growing, down-to-earth business
