About the role

At Fresh Clinics, our Senior Financial Accountant is the technical backbone of a finance function that's right in the middle of a real transformation. You aren't just here to keep the books tidy, you are the person who makes our numbers stand up to scrutiny.

We've already done a lot of the hard yards. We moved from cash to accrual accounting, implemented Sage Intacct, and automated AP at scale across 6,000+ invoices a month. 

Beyond our financial audits, you'll own our statutory reporting, technical accounting framework, tax and payroll compliance across Australia and the US, reporting directly to our Financial Controller. This is a contract-to-permanent role for someone who enjoys building something, not just maintaining it.

What you'll do

The Audit Closer

• Own the backlog: Two outstanding statutory audits, you take charge of PBC preparation, and help manage the auditor relationship, to close them out within 90 days.

• Stay audit-ready: Build the workpapers, reconciliations for all accounts, and documentation that mean year-end is never a scramble.

• Be the point: You are the primary contact for external auditors. They ask and you work with the team to find the answer fast.

The Statutory Reporter

• Own the financials: Prepare statutory financial statements across our Australian and US entities in line with AASB and IFRS.

• Multi-entity mastery: Maintain consolidation workpapers and intercompany eliminations across our entity structure. Support M&A transactions including post-deal reporting considerations

• Year-end owner: Ensure the annual close delivers financials the board and investors can rely on — clean, documented, and defensible.

The Technical Owner

• GL integrity: Own the general ledger accuracy and the technical accounting framework across entities including being up to date with technical matters, prepare technical/accounting memos to support accounting treatment and necessary adjustments which need to be made so that the statutory financials and GL are aligned. 

• The go-to expert: When the team hits a technical accounting question, you're the person with the answer and the confidence to stand behind it.

The Compliance Anchor

• AU and US tax: Own income tax returns, GST, FBT, payroll tax, and PAYG - you know the obligations and make sure we meet them. We currently work with a mid-Tier services firm to support tax compliance.

• R&D incentive: Manage the R&D tax incentive claims and the documentation that supports them.

• Policy builder: Design and monitor the internal controls and accounting policies that protect the business as it grows.

The Payroll Guardian

• Compliance oversight: Review payroll reconciliations and ensure all statutory obligations are met across AU and US.

• Finance sign-off: You own the technical oversight of payroll compliance — not the processing, but the accountability.

We'd love you to have

• CA or CPA qualification is a firm requirement.

• 6+ years of progressive accounting experience with meaningful external audit exposure — you've sat across the table from auditors and know how to manage that relationship.

• Statutory financial statements are your domain — you've prepared them, defended them, and know the accounting standards behind every line.

• AU tax expertise across income tax, GST, FBT, and payroll tax; US experience is highly desired.

• Multi-entity or consolidation experience — you're comfortable with intercompany eliminations and don't need to look them up. Exposure to US GAAP is highly desired.

• A builder's mindset: you're walking into a finance function mid-transformation, and you help create structure rather than wait for it.

• Clear, confident communication: you can translate a complex accounting position into plain language for the CFO and hold your ground under auditor scrutiny.
