Overview

We’re looking for a driven and detail-focused Financial Accountant to join our Finance team in Perth.

This is more than a reporting role — it’s an opportunity to partner closely with operations, influence decision-making, and contribute to a growing, purpose-led organisation with a strong presence across Western Australia.

If you enjoy working in a hands-on, fast-moving environment where no two days are the same, this role offers the perfect balance of technical depth and commercial exposure.

Maintain general ledger accuracy through journal entry review and approvals
Reconcile balance sheet accounts and stock movements across sites
Ensure inventory and budgetary adjustments are reflected appropriately
Review and correct GL allocations; assess provision and accrual needs
Maintain and update the fixed asset register; run monthly depreciation
Conduct on-site verification of stock counts with farm-based teams
Draft dashboard reporting and assist with cash flow analysis for Treasury
Support BAS, ATO returns, and assist with external audits
Investigate outstanding purchase orders and system discrepancies
Cross-check and release creditors’ payments
Manage and evaluate foreign currency transactions and balance

Qualifications & Experience

Bachelor’s degree in accounting, Finance, or a related field (essential)
CA or CPA qualified, or currently enrolled and progressing toward certification (preferred)
Minimum 3 years’ experience in a financial accounting or similar role
Valid Australian driver’s license
Willingness to travel to farm sites within WA (day travel)
This is a split role, typically spending part of the week in the Perth office and part on-site at farms within day-travel distance

Functional And Technical

Strong understanding of financial reporting, compliance, and accounting principles
Advanced Excel skills and experience with ERP systems (NetSuite advantageous)
Ability to work across complex, multi-site environments (agribusiness experience a plus)
High attention to detail with strong analytical capability
Ways of Working
You communicate clearly and build strong relationships across teams
You take ownership, stay organised, and deliver to deadlines
You operate with integrity, professionalism, and sound judgement
You’re a self-starter who thrives in a dynamic, evolving environment
