Accounts Payable Officer

About the Role

You'll join the finance team of a well-established, machinery manufacturing company as their go-to Accounts Payable Officer. This is a high-volume, high-visibility role — you'll own the AP process end-to-end, manage the shared Finance inbox, and step in on Accounts Receivable when needed.

What You'll Do

• Process a steady volume of supplier invoices accurately and on time

• Reconcile supplier statements and chase down discrepancies until they're resolved

• Prepare supplier payments and keep supplier records accurate and current

• Manage the Finance inbox as the first point of contact for enquiries

• Support bank reconciliations, expense claims, and month-end processing

• Step into Accounts Receivable (invoicing, statements, collections support) when needed to cover leave

• Provide general finance admin support — filing, data entry, document prep

What You'll Bring

• Solid hands-on experience in Accounts Payable

• Experience reconciling accounts/invoices and resolving discrepancies independently

• Confident written and verbal communication — you'll be emailing and calling AU-based clients directly

• Comfortable working in Excel and picking up new systems quickly

Nice to Have

• SAP or similar accounting/ERP software experience (a plus, not a dealbreaker)

• Broader finance administration background

What's In It For You

• Direct exposure to an established overseas client and real ownership of a core finance function

• Room to grow your accounts and finance administration skill set
