Bookkeeper

We’re looking for a finance professional who’s interested in accounts payable, accounts receivable, payroll, and everything in between. This part-time role offers flexible hours for the right candidate, making it a great fit for someone who wants meaningful work without a full-time commitment. Not worked in construction before? No problem, we have! What matters most is your finance experience, your willingness to be hands-on, and your interest in improving day-to-day processes. Want to take your leadership skills to the next level? Enjoy rolling up your sleeves, supporting the team, and helping make things run better? Here’s your chance!

About the role

Due to continuing growth in our multi-generational family business, a key position at Mykra has been created within our Accounts Team in our Professional Services division. This team plays a vital role in ensuring everyone gets paid for the great work that we do! More specifically, you’ll be responsible for overseeing financial functions through reporting of accounting and financial data at Mykra. You’ll enjoy the support and camaraderie of six Accounts Payable/Receivable Administrators within the team.

Reporting to John, our Accounting Manager, you’ll work together to ensure that Mykra is compliant with its external obligations and the KPIs of the team are met. You’ll be equipped with a laptop for flexibility but work mostly from our modern office in Klemzig (just northeast of the CBD) where we offer the convenience of free off-street parking.

You’ll enjoy a balance of autonomously managing your tasks, with the support of managers and administrators to ensure nothing gets missed and your team’s workload is manageable.

At Mykra we hire on cultural fit first and technical fit second, however, to be successful in this role you will need:

• Experience in a finance/bookkeeping role or similar.
• Genuine work ethic and ability to problem solve.
• Enthusiasm and positivity with a can-do attitude.
• Be a team player because we succeed together.
• Good literacy, numeracy, and computer skills.

Here are 3 reasons why you’ll love working for us:

1. Work Environment – We take our work seriously but not ourselves. This means, our work is of a high standard first and foremost, but you’ll also enjoy coming to work each day.
2. Empowerment – We’ll back you in! We trust that you make the right decisions and in turn you will have scope to challenge the norm and improve processes.
3. Industry Leading – Clients and Subcontractors love working with us! With a vision statement of being “the most trusted builder”, it’s not difficult to understand why. 

And here are 3 reasons why we’re afraid you might not:

1. We work in a fast-paced environment, this means multitasking across several priorities, not just focusing on one thing for extended periods. If a bit of organised chaos isn’t for you, then this role probably isn’t a good fit for you.
2. We rely on trust and independence, so we prefer not to micro-manage or handhold. If you find it hard to manage your own workload or meet a fixed deadline, we’re probably not the best choice for you.
3. We value collaboration and open communication over a strict hierarchy. If you are more comfortable in a traditional, highly structured workplace with clear lines of authority, you may find our more fluid and approach challenging.
