Careers

Sales Bookkeeper – Revenue & Reconciliation Specialist

About the Role

We are an established Melbourne-based SME seeking a hands-on Sales Bookkeeper to manage our daily sales income function.

This is not a graduate accountant role and not a finance manager stepping stone. We are looking for someone who enjoys structured, process-driven bookkeeping and takes pride in clean, accurate revenue records.

You will be responsible for daily bank reconciliations, invoicing, receipting, refund processing, and ensuring our financial records are compliant and audit-ready.

Key Responsibilities

• You will own the daily sales income workflow from invoice through to bank reconciliation
• Raising and issuing customer invoices in Xero
• Allocating receipts and resolving unmatched payments
• Daily bank reconciliation and transaction matching
• Processing credit notes and customer refunds correctly (GST compliant)
• Entering sales data into MYOB for reporting
• Working closely with sales and support teams to resolve discrepancies
• This role requires attention to detail, logical thinking, and comfort with repeatable daily controls
• Support for other in-house accounting
• Maintaining accurate, organised financial records

About You

You are someone who:

• Has hands-on experience managing sales income end-to-end
• Can clearly explain how an invoice flows through AR, GST, payment, and reconciliation
• Has worked in Xero daily and understands MYOB fundamentals – comfortable working with both systems
• Is confident handling credit notes, refunds, and GST adjustments
• Proficient in Excel
• Applied accounting knowledge – you understand the "why," not just the "how"
• Tech-savvy and comfortable adapting to new systems
• Warm, professional, and dependable. Communicates clearly and professionally
• Is happy working in a structured, process-driven environment
• Prefers operational bookkeeping over strategic finance
• You enjoy doing the work properly, not rushing it
• Experience across multiple ledgers: AR, AP, GL, bank reconciliations, BAS/GST

Qualifications

• Cert IV in Bookkeeping or Accounting (or equivalent experience)

Essential Experience

Please only apply if you can demonstrate:

• At least 2+ years managing accounts receivable and bank reconciliations
• Practical GST experience in Australia (not just academic exposure)
• Experience allocating customer payments and resolving discrepancies
• Confidence using Xero daily
• Clear written and spoken English

Requirements

• Must have Australian work rights

Work Arrangement

• Office-based. Long-term flexibility may be considered once independent.
