Accounts & Payroll Officer

Accounts & Payroll Officer

About Us

At Humdrum, we're on a mission to combat boredom and isolation for our community. We build digital infrastructure to muster, train and deploy support workers who help the eclectic humans in our community live their best lives. We're as authentic as they come; we value hard work and gumption, and we believe in doing things with potency and a dash of colour. Our herd keeps growing, and we're after a Unicorn to join our accounts team. One who can prove that 'finance person' and 'colourful character' aren't mutually exclusive.

The Role

We're after an Accounts & Payroll Officer who can run payroll like clockwork, keep our invoices flowing & ensure the integrity of our numbers. Think of yourself as the accounts engine room.You'll work closely with our Chartered Accountant and CFO, as well as side by side with our service management crew to keep the whole finance and participant journey running smoothly. Money stuff doesn't have to be beige around here.

What You'll Be Doing

• Processing end-to-end payroll, accurately and within deadline, every time

• Ensuring compliance with relevant legislation, including weekly super and PAYG, and monthly payroll tax.

• Weekly invoicing where accuracy is everything

• Handling accounts payable and receivable, including invoices, debtor management, employee reimbursements and supplier payments

• Reconciling payroll, bank and general ledger accounts

• Keeping our financial records and employee data accurate and up to date

• Being the friendly, go-to contact for payroll/invoicing questions from our crew.

• General administrative support for finances, plus a keen eye for continuous process improvement

Is This You? (Preferably, but Character Goes a Long Way)

• Previous experience in a payroll and/or accounts administration role, including accounts payable, accounts receivable or general finance admin

• A sound understanding of Australian payroll legislation, awards and superannuation requirements

• A high level of accuracy and sharp attention to detail across everything you touch

• Excellent organisational and time management skills, comfortable juggling competing priorities

• Strong communication and interpersonal skills, at ease with people from all walks of life

• Comfortable in Xero, Employment Hero or similar, and quick to pick up new systems (our internally built stack included)

• NDIS exposure is a strong bonus, but not essential

• You'd rather get on with the job than wait for three layers of sign-off, and have a positive & creative perspective on being alive.

What We Offer

A unique, supportive and productive work environment where everyone is encouraged to bring their whole, colourful selves to work. We also offer:

• Highly Competitive salary. 

• A newly refurbished, bright and colourful office in Freo, filled with equally colourful humans

• Genuine flexibility: full time or part time, flexible hours, and a team that gets it when life throws a curveball

• A real pathway to grow your career in accounts and finance

• Monthly team lunches, weekly pancakes, coffees and other little treats

• A chance to make a real difference in the lives of our community
