We're looking for a detail-driven and proactive Accounts Officer to join Hub Australia's finance team on a 6-month fixed-term contract covering parental leave. This is a hands-on operational role sitting at the core of our finance function - owning end-to-end accounts payable and receivable, supporting month-end activities, and keeping financial transactions accurate and on time across our national network.

If you're someone who takes pride in clean books, thrives on problem-solving, and brings a service-oriented mindset to everything you do, we'd love to hear from you.

What your day-to-day will look like (but not limited to!):

• Own the end-to-end accounts payable function - processing invoices, managing payment runs, and maintaining vendor relationships.
• Oversee the full accounts receivable cycle - accurate billing, proactive collections, credit control, and resolving member enquiries with care.
• Maintain daily and monthly reconciliations across bank accounts, credit cards, and expense platforms, ensuring all discrepancies are resolved promptly.
• Support month-end close activities including journal entries, AR ageing reporting, and financial outputs within agreed deadlines.
• Manage the shared accounts inbox and finance ticketing system, triaging and resolving queries from members, vendors, and internal teams.
• Identify and implement process improvements to drive greater efficiency, accuracy, and automation across the finance function.

We're Looking For Someone Who:

• Has 2–3 years' experience in a transactional finance or accounts role, with exposure to both AP and AR functions.
• Holds a Bachelor's degree in Commerce, Accounting, Finance, or a related discipline.
• Brings high attention to detail and strong reconciliation skills across complex, multi-site environments.
• Communicates clearly and professionally with members, vendors, and internal stakeholders.
• Is proficient in Excel and experienced with Xero - familiarity with Lightyear or Volopay is a bonus.
• Is solutions-focused, adaptable, and comfortable managing competing priorities in a fast-paced environment.

Why you should join us: 

• Be part of a collaborative, hospitality-led team that genuinely cares about the experience they deliver.
• Join a growing, purpose-led organisation that is a certified Great Place to Work™, B Corp, and carbon-neutral business.
• Access great perks including the Sonder (Wellbeing and Safety), paid volunteer leave, and your birthday off.
• Work with passionate teammates who exemplify our values: Hospitality First, Lead with Impact, Elevate Everyday, Make Things Happen.
