Role Summary We are seeking a Finance Manager / Senior Management Accountant with strong hands-on experience in manufacturing and project-based accounting to join a growing, project-based manufacturing and engineering business supporting an Australian Finance Manager. This is not a narrow shared-services or pure FP&A role - it sits at the intersection of technical accounting and transactional ownership, requiring someone who is comfortable moving between month-end close, WIP and project costing, reconciliations, and process improvement across multiple non-integrated systems.
The ideal candidate is a strong self-starter with genuine end-to-end ownership experience, able to trace transactions from operational activity through to the financial statements with minimal hand-holding.
Working Location:
Home-based Setup (Vietnam based)
Work Schedule:
9AM - 6PM (AEST)
Key Responsibilities
Own and support the month-end close process, including P&L, balance sheet and cash-flow reporting
Prepare and review general ledger entries, accruals, prepayments, provisions and other key journals
Complete and review balance sheet reconciliations, variance analysis and management reporting
Support WIP accounting and milestone / percentage-of-completion revenue recognition for complex, multi-stage engineering and manufacturing projects
Maintain accurate project and job costing, including labour, materials, subcontractors and overhead allocations
Support standard costing, inventory movements, stock reconciliations and margin analysis
Monitor project profitability and analyse variances throughout the project lifecycle
Work across multiple non-integrated operational, production and finance systems to trace transactions end-to-end and reconcile differences
Monitor cash flow and working capital, oversee AP/AR processes, and manage customer milestone billing and progress claims
Maintain the Fixed Asset Register, depreciation schedules and related reconciliations
Support year-end and periodic audit processes, and assist with Australian compliance support (BAS, GST, FBT) in coordination with the Australia-based finance lead
Identify data-quality issues, process gaps and control weaknesses, and implement practical ERP and process enhancements
Collaborate closely with
project managers, procurement, engineering and operations teams to ensure financial information reflects operational reality
Must-Have:
Bachelor's degree in Accounting, Finance or a related field
Approximately 8-12 years of finance/accounting experience, including solid experience as a Finance Manager, Senior Financial Accountant, Senior Management Accountant or equivalent
Strong hands-on experience in manufacturing, engineering and/or project-based environments
Demonstrated experience with cost accounting, inventory, WIP, job/project costing and project profitability
Experience with milestone or percentage-of-completion revenue recognition and progress billing
Proven ability to operate effectively in a lean finance team without heavy process documentation
Demonstrated end-to-end ownership of finance processes, rather than experience limited to a narrow shared-services function
Advanced Excel skills, including complex formulas, lookups, pivot tables and multi-source data reconciliation
High self-learning capability with strong initiative and problem-solving orientation; comfortable operating with minimal hand-holding
Clear and confident written and spoken English; comfortable working directly with an Australian-based manager and team
