Xero Bookeeper

Bookkeeper

Full-time | Work from home | Australian business hours (AEST)

About the company

We are a well-established Australian business with an experienced, close-knit team. The company is owner-operated, financially stable and has been trading successfully for many years. You will work remotely as part of a small finance function, reporting directly to management.

About the role

We are looking for a reliable Bookkeeper to keep our day-to-day accounts accurate and up to date in Xero.

The work is steady and largely transactional: reconciliations, supplier bills, customer payments and payroll. What matters most to us is accuracy and consistency - books that are clean at the end of every week without anyone having to chase you. We would rather hear about a problem early than discover it at month end.

Key responsibilities

Daily and weekly bank, credit card and payment reconciliations in Xero

Accounts payable - entering and coding supplier bills, preparing payment runs and reconciling supplier statements

Accounts receivable - issuing invoices, allocating receipts and following up outstanding accounts

Processing Australian payroll, including superannuation and STP reporting

Maintaining the general ledger with accurate and consistent coding

Assisting with month-end close and preparing figures for BAS

Keeping records and supporting documentation organised for the external accountant

Raising discrepancies rather than processing them through

What you will need

3+ years of bookkeeping experience, including at least one year supporting an Australian business

Hands-on experience with Xero

Strong bank and account reconciliation skills

Working knowledge of Australian GST, BAS basics, superannuation and STP

Good Excel or Google Sheets skills

Accurate, organised and dependable with deadlines

Clear written and spoken English

Desirable

Experience running Australian payroll end to end

Ecommerce or wholesale experience, including reconciling online payment gateways

Exposure to inventory and cost of goods

Certificate IV in Bookkeeping, a Bachelor's degree in Accountancy, or equivalent

What we offer

Full-time, permanent position, working from home

Competitive Salary

A long-term role in a stable business, not a short-term contract

Direct access to management and genuine ownership of your work

Hours

Full-time, Monday to Friday, aligned to Australian Eastern Standard Time.
