Salary increases beyond the banding will also be considered based on a business case to attract high-performing individuals.

The Role

Reporting to a highly experienced director, you will work in a dynamic team to manage key asset accounting and reporting. This department oversees a variety of significant and unique assets throughout Australia, which leads to interesting accounting treatments and unconventional considerations.
Key responsibilities for Financial and Asset Accountants include:

It is crucial to have demonstrated experience in being proactive, using problem-solving skills, and employing your influencing abilities to promptly resolve accounting issues, especially in the context of federal government operations.

Ideally, you will have experience in the federal government or come from a consulting or audit firm with experience in engagements related to the federal government.

To be successful at the EL1 level, you will need to demonstrate proficiency in managing, mentoring, and evaluating team and individual performance, all while providing regular feedback to team members. Having a background in federal government experience is highly valuable in this regard.
