  • Provide first-class administrative support to the management team and Board.

  • Assist the Finance Manager and CEO with governance, reporting and audits.

  • Coordinate bookings, meetings, travel and office logistics.

  • Help maintain organised records, registers and communications.

  • Super-organised, detail-loving approach to work.

  • Excellent communicator who takes ownership and pride in their work.

  • Able to juggle multiple priorities and stay calm under pressure.

  • A genuine interest in supporting young people and community impact.

  • Minimum 2 years of bookkeeping or finance administration experience

  • Proficiency in Microsoft Office suite, particularly Excel and Word

  • Unrestricted right to work in Australia

Essential Criteria

  • Experience using Xero Accounting Software, including payroll processing and bank reconciliations.

  • Strong administration and organisational skills, with attention to detail and accuracy.

  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills.

  • Ability to manage multiple priorities and deadlines in a busy environment.

  • Proficiency with Microsoft Office (particularly Excel and Word) and general digital literacy.

  • Demonstrated ability to work collaboratively in a small team environment.

  • Commitment to YACWA’s values, youth participation, inclusion, human rights and to safeguarding principles and practices.

Desirable Criteria
  • Experience supporting executive or board-level administration (e.g., minute-taking, agenda preparation).

  • Understanding of not-for-profit governance or community sector operations.

  • Bookkeeping or finance-related qualification (e.g. Certificate IV or Diploma).

Additional Requirements

The successful candidate will be required to hold a current Working with Children Check (WWCC) and a National Police Check (NPC).
You don’t need to have these to apply, but you must be willing to obtain them if selected for the role.

Why You'll Love Working Here
  • Part-time - 4 days a week (0.8 FTE) and flexible working hours.

  • A small, passionate team that values innovation, ideas and collaboration.

  • Central Perth location close to transport and good coffee.

  • Be part of something bigger — helping amplify the voices of young Western Australians.
