About ElementX

ElementX is a growing group of trade services businesses across South-East Queensland. We back doers, build simple systems that scale, and believe in success through service. You’ll join a fast, supportive team where finance is a partner to operations—not a back office.

The opportunity

We’re seeking a hands-on Accountant to own commission reporting and core accounting rhythms across multiple entities. You’ll deliver timely management information, keep cashflow tight, ensure compliance is clean, and lead a capable assistant—while helping us keep improving the way we work.

What you’ll do

• Commission & reporting: Build/maintain monthly commission packs and management reports that operators actually use; drive accuracy and cadence.

• Aged debtors: Assist with AR follow-up, dispute notes, and clear comms with ops to reduce DSO.

• Financial ops: Oversee billing, payroll inputs, AR/AP, GL hygiene, and P&L integrity across entities; support month-end/year-end close.

• BAS & compliance: Prepare/review BAS and other lodgements; liaise with the ATO and external accountants.

• Cashflow: Maintain rolling cashflow; surface risks/decisions early.

• Budgets & forecasts: Assist with group budgets/forecasts; strengthen internal controls.

• Cost & process improvement: Find savings; tighten processes and data flows between finance and non-finance managers.

• Grants & incentives: Prepare relevant applications when appropriate.

• Lead & support: Manage a finance/admin assistant; pitch in on ad-hoc admin when needed to keep the machine moving.

Nice to have: Experience with Simpro and/or Karbon (ideal, not required). We’ll train the right person.

What you’ll bring

• Degree in Accounting/Commerce/Finance; CPA/CA qualified or working towards (preferred).

• ~4+ years in a similar financial/management accounting role (reporting, budgeting, forecasting, analysis).

• Strong integrity, initiative, and follow-through; excellent written and verbal comms.

• Proactive communicator who doesn’t wait to be asked—comfortable surfacing issues early and driving clarity.

• Proven ability to work across teams and deliver timely, accurate, useful information to operators and leaders.

• Organised, adaptable, detail-minded; comfortable juggling multiple entities and priorities.

• Sunshine Coast based.

Why ElementX

• Competitive salary $82,992 – $92,872 + 12% super (based on experience).

• Hybrid: ~70% in-office (Sippy Downs) / 30% WFH for deep work and flexibility.

• A practical, no-ego environment where finance is valued, listened to, and influential.

• Clear runway to improve systems and shape how finance partners the business.
