Senior Financial Accountant
IN A NUTSHELL…
Bellroy ships products around the world, operates across multiple entities and currencies, and manages inventory at a scale that keeps things genuinely interesting. To do that well, our numbers need to be right and our reporting needs to mean something. We're looking for a Senior Financial Accountant to join our finance team on an 18-month contract to own exactly that.
This is a hands-on high-ownership role where you'll drive core financial operations, mentor a small team and help us continue building a finance function that's scalable and genuinely useful to the business. Reporting directly to our Financial Controller, you'll work across everything from month-end close and cashflow management to inventory reconciliation and multi-currency transactions. You'll be joining a finance team that's highly capable, genuinely collaborative and who take real pride in the quality of their work.
This isn't a role for someone who's here just to process transactions and move on. So, if you love having real ownership over your work, get genuine satisfaction from clean books and enjoy bringing others along with you as you go; we'd love to hear from you.
YOU COULD BE THE ONE IF YOU…
- Hold a CPA qualification and have 4-5 years of full-function accounting experience (ideally in a product, retail, or consumer goods business)
- Have strong working knowledge of inventory accounting and logistics - you understand how stock movements flow through the books and what it means for reporting
- Are confident working with multiple currencies. You've managed foreign currency bank accounts and payments, and you naturally think across currencies rather than defaulting to AUD
- Have experience with multi-entity structures, intercompany transactions and international consolidations, there aren't new territory for you
- Have led or mentored a small team. You know how to review work, give clear feedback and help people grow in their roles
- Are comfortable making decisions with incomplete or imperfect data you don't need everything to be perfectly clear to take a considered step forward
- Know your way around Oracle NetSuite or a similarly complex ERP system
IF YOU WERE HERE LAST WEEK, YOU MIGHT HAVE…
- Kept a close eye on cashflow and managed payment schedules across multiple entities to ensure everything ran smoothly
- Owned the month-end close: preparing journal entries and reviewing reconciliations completed by your team
- Maintained the fixed asset register, including additions, disposals, and depreciation
- Prepared and analysed inventory reconciliations, building a clear picture of stock movements and trends
- Produced financial reports that gave management the clarity they needed to make good decisions
- Worked within NetSuite to manage financial data, transactions, and ad hoc analysis
- Collaborated with the operations team to understand how inventory flows across new locations and explored automation opportunities to streamline reconciliation
- Partnered with the production team to assess the financial impact of changes in inventory ordering and provided practical guidance
- Spent time with your direct reports; reviewing their work, sharing your thinking, and helping them level up
