Descrição da oferta de emprego

Payroll, compliance, and month-end close. One sharp all-rounder.

Hi! We're Smartsourcing, and we're hiring a full-time, onsite Financial Accountant. You'll be the all-rounder who keeps payroll, compliance, and the month-end numbers on time and right.

About the Role

You’ll cover the finance and compliance work for a multi-entity Australian business that sits outside its asset, AR, and AP functions. That means running weekly payroll and STP across all entities, preparing payroll tax, BAS/IAS, and FBT workpapers, and keeping company secretarial and funding records (share and loan note registers, ASIC) current. At month end, you'll prepare entitlement accruals, close cashbook and intercompany accounts, calculate sales commission, compile the balance sheet reconciliation pack, and prepare lender and management reporting. SOPs exist and lodgement deadlines are strict, so you'll work independently while helping improve the process. The team runs an open-door culture and values people who own their work, ask questions freely, flag mistakes early, and handle sensitive payroll information with discretion.

Key Responsibilities

Payroll & STP Processing

Process weekly payroll for all group entities in Xero and lodge STP submissions accurately and on time.
Process superannuation payments and post payroll journals into the ERP.
Maintain employee records in Xero, including new starters, terminations, salary changes, and leave balances.
Process commission payroll in line with the approved monthly commission calculation.

Compliance Workpapers & Lodgements

Prepare payroll tax reconciliations and lodgements across applicable states, and liaise with state revenue offices.
Prepare BAS and IAS workpapers for review and lodgement.
Prepare FBT returns and manage instalments.
Support end-of-year payroll reporting, STP finalisation, and payroll tax grouping compliance.
Coordinate with external tax advisors, and flag regulatory changes affecting payroll or compliance.

Company Secretarial & Funding Records

Maintain the share register and loan note register, recording subscriptions and redemptions.
Calculate accrued interest on loan notes, shareholder loans, and director's loans, and post it to the ERP.
Prepare borrowing cost and prepayment amortisation schedules.
Manage ASIC obligations for all group entities, including annual reviews and officeholder and share changes.

Month-End Close & Balance Sheet Reconciliations

Prepare annual leave, long service leave, and other employee entitlement accruals, and reconcile payroll balance sheet accounts.
Close cashbook accounts for interbank transfers in transit and intercompany accounts across group entities.
Maintain the settled-assets working paper, calculate monthly sales commission and accrual, and reconcile to fleet at cost.
Own and reconcile the equity, loan, intercompany, and tax balance sheet accounts.
Compile the month-end balance sheet reconciliation pack for Finance Manager review.
Prepare the borrowing base report mid-month and at month end, including breakdowns by asset class and arrears.
Prepare lender fleet reports (units and dollars for new, terminated, purchased, and disposed assets).
Prepare budget vs actual and EBITDA-based reporting inputs for Finance Manager review.

Process Documentation & Improvement

Follow and complete the role's processes and SOPs independently.
Help document and improve month-end processes, including SOPs, templates, and automation.
Flag errors, risks, and process gaps to the Finance Manager early, including your own mistakes.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) Readiness and Digital Enablement

Maintain baseline AI literacy and use approved AI tools responsibly, in line with company policies, data privacy, information security, and client confidentiality obligations.
Apply sound judgment by validating outputs and avoiding overreliance, ensuring accuracy and accountability in all work delivered.
Participate in AI readiness trainings and proactively identify opportunities for process improvement through automation and responsible AI integration.
