5:30 AM – 2:30 PM PHT (ACST hours)| Long-Term Remote Role
If you’re a high-performing finance professional who thrives on high-volume accuracy, Australian compliance, and working directly with a scaling South Australian solar leader that values strategic impact over simple task completion — keep reading.
This isn’t a role for a generic data entry clerk waiting for instructions.
This is a focused, outcome-driven position where you’ll own the day-to-day Accounts Payable execution, assist with Australian payroll runs, draft BAS/GST coding, and serve as the operational engine behind clean, audit-ready books.
Why This Is a Dream Job
You’ll be working directly with an established, scaling South Australian business (Solar Power Direct) who:
Champions Innovation: Operates a future-of-work, global-impact team that prioritizes AI-adaptive operators.
Values Your Growth: Provides hands-on exposure to Australian payroll processing, BAS/GST compliance, and access to an assigned Success Manager (CSM) for professional coaching through your first 90 days.
Respects Your Expertise: Integrates you into an established, supportive finance team (working alongside a Senior Finance Officer and Group Finance Manager) with clear escalation paths and strategic support.
Builds Stability: Operates with a proven history of collaborating with Filipino professionals and is looking for a dedicated, long-term team extension.
You’ll get career transformation, high-level visibility, and genuine ownership of a high-volume function — without being stuck in a dead-end administrative rut.
What You’ll Be Owning This is a core execution role covering Accounts Payable management, payroll administration, and ledger reconciliation. You aren't just keying numbers; you are verifying source documents, maintaining vendor trust, and driving internal financial accuracy.
You’ll take the lead on:
High-Volume Accounts Payable: Entering, coding, and matching supplier invoices to purchase orders in Xero with top-tier accuracy.
Vendor Relationship & Dispute Resolution: Serving as the primary point of contact for suppliers, reconciling vendor statements, and investigating billing discrepancies.
Payroll & BAS Support: Preparing weekly/fortnightly payroll runs (timesheets, leave balances, penalty rates) and drafting initial BAS calculations with transactions correctly coded for GST purposes.
Ledger Maintenance & Month-End Support: Reconciling bank statements, commissions, rebates, and inventory to maintain clean financial data.
AI Workflow Integration: Leveraging AI tools (e.g., ChatGPT/Claude) to summarize supplier communication threads and streamline standard vendor follow-ups.
End-to-End Project Execution: Collaborating with senior finance leadership to ensure audit-ready files and smooth month-end closes.
Requirements
This Role Is a Great Fit If You:
Are an AU Compliance & Payroll Specialist: You have direct, hands-on experience processing Australian payroll and preparing/coding BAS for GST.
Are a Xero Power User: You are genuinely comfortable operating in Xero at pace, handling end-to-end AP, reconciliations, and coding.
Are an AI-Adaptive Operator: You actively leverage modern AI tools to speed up routine admin and written communications.
Have proven, solid experience in high-volume bookkeeping, accounts payable, or Australian tax/finance operations.
Are High-Accountability: You double-check your work by habit, catch discrepancies proactively, and don't need to be chased for updates.
Communicate with elite fluency and professional confidence in written and spoken English.
What Success Looks Like
After 60–90 Days:
The Brand is Fortified: Day-to-day AP processing, supplier matching, and inbox management run seamlessly with minimal errors.
Production is Seamless: You are independently preparing weekly/fortnightly payroll runs and drafting BAS-ready GST coding for senior review.
Impact is Measured: Vendor disputes are resolved promptly, and bank, commission, and rebate reconciliations carry zero outstanding items past 5 business days.
Trust is Earned: Senior finance leaders rely on your execution so they can focus on higher-level reporting and controls.
Final Word If you’ve ever thought: "I am a world-class finance professional who understands Australian compliance and high-volume workflows—I just want a client who is organized and values my technical depth," this is that role.
