Assistant Accountant / Senior Accounts Administrator

At Mons Royale, we believe action and adventure sports can be a force for good but most of the gear made for these sports is trashing the planet. That’s why we’re on a mission to shift riders from synthetics to natural fibres designing high-performance merino apparel that doesn’t mess up the places we love to play.

We have an opening for an Assistant Accountant or Senior Accounts Administrator to join our collaborative finance team. Based in Wanaka, you’ll support our global finance operations (with offices in NZ, Austria, and Canada) and be an energetic, hands-on part of our busy team. This is a role where initiative, continuous improvement, and a passion for accuracy are valued.

What you’ll be doing

You’ll be part of a team delivering core accounting services to the business, including:

• Accounts Receivable: ensure timely invoicing and collection and maintain excellent credit control practices across all regions.
• Accounts Payable: process supplier invoices, obtain approvals and prepare payment runs.
• Month-end and Year-end: bank, balance sheet, and clearing account reconciliations.  Prepare month-end and year-end journals, reconciliations, workpapers and reports.
• Budgeting and Reporting: Prepare and present accurate financial information to support decision-making across the business.  Assist with preparing departmental budgets and providing accurate reporting to track progress and highlight variances.
• Inventory Accounting: Support inventory accuracy through regular stock reconciliations, monitor movements, identify discrepancies, and work with operational teams to resolve issues. Provide accurate inventory reporting to ensure reliable financial records.

You’re organised, reliable, and love working with numbers and people. You notice when something doesn’t balance, enjoy problem-solving, and take pride in creating perfectly reconciled, easy-to-understand reports. You thrive in a supportive, hands-on team and are looking for a role where you can grow with the business.

What you'll bring:

• A sound understanding of accounting principles

• A relevant accounting or finance qualification (or desire to work toward one)
• 2–4 years’ experience in accounting, finance, or accounts administration
• Experience with accounting systems (ERP exposure advantageous)
• Strong Excel skills
• A proactive, energetic, and solutions-focused approach
• High attention to detail and strong organisational skills
• Professionalism, reliability, and discretion with confidential information
• Excellent communication skills and ability to work well across teams
• You must have a valid NZ work visa. We are unable to offer visa sponsorship for this role.
  

We'll all be taking some time out over the Christmas/New Year break, so responses may be delayed through this period.

Opportunity for Growth 

Mons Royale is a fast-growing brand in the action and adventure sports space with lots of opportunities for career development, within and outside NZ. 

Mountain town lifestyle and flexibility 

We are based in mountain towns because we value time spent in the mountains and want to enable and encourage our team to achieve a work/life balance. While we do work hard and put in the hours, we also believe in the value of having a life outside of the workplace. This role will be based in our brand home, Wanaka.  

We value people and our team 

Company culture is important to us. We're often together in the mountains or catching up for a happy-hour bike ride. With offices in Squamish, Innsbruck and our hometown of Wanaka, Mons is comprised of a globally diverse workforce. We hire great people from a wide variety of backgrounds and therefore all qualified applicants receive consideration for employment. 

Embracing the entrepreneurial spirit 

Being a part of a fast-growing brand means that there’s never a dull moment and that you’ll likely be involved in a lot of opportunities that may fall outside of your typical job description.  

Competitive Salary and Discounts to fuel your passion 

We offer competitive remuneration, discounted Mons Royale product and access to discounts across the outdoor industry.
