About the Role

We are hiring on behalf of an Australian Construction client — a growing multi-entity business with a recently implemented Sage Intacct environment. This is a fully remote, full-time (30-45 hr/wk) Finance Officer role based in the Philippines, supporting the client's finance function end-to-end.

You will own accounts payable operations, month-end close activities, reconciliations, and systems support across multiple entities. This is a broad, hands-on position — not a narrow data-entry role. You'll be expected to work independently, manage your own workload, and take genuine ownership of finance processes and meet deadlines.

We're looking for someone who can hit the ground running and grow into a long-term member of the team.

Key Responsibilities

• Validate and process supplier invoices against purchase orders, delivery receipts, and contracts
• Ensure correct entity coding, approval workflows, and GST/tax compliance
• Execute weekly/fortnightly domestic and international payment runs
• Process foreign currency transactions via CommBank and Airwallex; prepare AUD batch payments
• Maintain a rolling 6–8 week cash flow forecast incorporating expected AP obligations

Vendor & Stakeholder Management

• Manage the AP email inbox daily and respond to supplier and internal queries
• Resolve payment discrepancies and maintain professional supplier relationships
• Process new vendor setups and support credit applications

Employee Reimbursements & Credit Cards

• Review and process staff expense claims and credit card reconciliations
• Ensure correct cost centre allocation; flag payroll inconsistencies
• Final approval of employee expenses in Airwallex (job code and account code)

Reconciliation & Month-End Close

• Reconcile AP ledgers, bank accounts, credit cards, supplier statements, petty cash, and project cost codes
• Balance sheet reconciliations and fixed asset reconciliation
• Prepare and post vendor bill accruals, prepayments, and reclassifications
• GST checking; preparation of Fuel Tax Credit calculations
• Process and import Airwallex journal entries into Sage Intacct
• Support full month-end and year-end close cycle

Intercompany & Multi-Entity

Process and reconcile intercompany recharges across multiple entities

Sage Intacct Systems Support

• Operate and maintain Sage Intacct as the primary system user
• Identify process inefficiencies and support optimisation of manual workflows
• Maintain auditable records; assist with internal and external audit documentation

Requirements

Essential

• Hands-on experience with Sage Intacct — this is a hard requirement
• Minimum 3–5 years in accounts payable or a similar finance officer role
• Multi-entity / intercompany accounting experience
• Proficiency in Airwallex, Excel, and cloud-based banking platforms
• Strong understanding of Australian GST, accruals, prepayments, and period-end close
• Comfortable working independently in a remote setup aligned to Australian business hours
• Stable internet connection and a professional home office setup

Desirable

• Experience in a post-implementation Sage Intacct environment
• Multi-currency payment processing experience
• Degree or diploma in Accounting, Finance, or related field
• Experience supporting external audit preparation

What We Offer

• Fully remote, permanent full-time position
• Work with an Australian client on a structured and growing finance function
• Stable, long-term engagement — minimum 12-month commitment expected
• Competitive compensation commensurate with experience

Important Note

This is a long-term role. We are currenrtly also accepting applications from candidates seeking short-term or project-based arrangements with Sage Intacct experience. The successful candidate will be committed to building familiarity with the client's systems, processes, and team over an extended period.
