An exciting opportunity has arisen for a Financial Accountant to join a well-established, value-driven organisation based in Perth. This role is ideal for a Big4 (or mid-tier) trained auditor looking to make their first move into industry, or someone with a strong audit foundation who has begun to build commercial experience. Reporting to the Finance Manager, you will play a key role in supporting the accuracy, integrity, and timeliness of financial reporting, while gaining hands-on exposure to core commercial finance activities.
Your new role
In this role, you will work closely with senior finance leaders and a broad group of internal stakeholders, supporting month-end reporting and ensuring high-quality financial information is available to support decision-making. This is a role that offers excellent learning, development and progression for someone early in their commercial career. Your responsibilities will include:

• Daily bank reconciliations and general ledger analysis
• Assisting with statutory financial statements and external audits
• Fixed asset accounting, reporting and reconciliations
• Support with BAS and FBT preparation
• Ad-hoc financial analysis and reporting as required
• Contributing to process improvement initiatives and documentation

What you'll need to succeed

• Background in Big4 or mid-tier audit, or audit plus some commercial experience
• Strong understanding of financial accounting principles
• Exposure to month-end close and balance sheet reconciliations
• High attention to detail with strong analytical capability
• Confidence communicating with non-finance stakeholders
• Advanced Excel skills (experience with BI tools or ERP systems is advantageous but not essential)

• A supportive finance team with strong mentorship
• Exposure to senior stakeholders and meaningful, purpose-led work
• Hybrid working arrangements and flexible start/finish times
• Clear pathway for development beyond first move from audit
• Convenient location with free parking on-site
