We're partnering with a well-established Brisbane business seeking an experienced Accounts Payable Officer to join their finance team on an initial 3 month contract with high potential for extension, to help capacity across the new year period.

This role will suit someone who has worked in a high volume invoice and fast-paced environment, dealing with multiple stakeholders and complex supplier relationships. While there is some payroll assistance involved, the focus is Accounts Payable.

• Credit card reconciliations and expense reporting
• Maintaining accurate creditor balances and aged payables
• Assisting with cashflow forecasting and payment planning
• Supporting process improvement and AP automation initiatives
• Providing payroll support across fortnightly payroll cycles when required

About You

To be successful, you'll bring:

• Proven experience in an end to end Accounts Payable role
• Exposure to high-volume transaction processing
• Strong reconciliation and problem-solving skills
• Experience working within a complex business environment, ideally involving multiple operational locations
• Excellent stakeholder management and supplier communication skills
• Strong attention to detail and ability to manage competing priorities
• Payroll exposure will be highly regarded but is not essential for this contract

What's on Offer?

• Immediate start opportunity
• Add valuable experience to your CV working in a complex, fast-paced organisation
• Supportive finance team and experienced leadership
• Varied role with exposure beyond traditional AP duties
• Potential for extension or a longer term role depending on business needs
