About the role
We are looking for a Finance Officer to join our client, a local council in Eastern Melbourne. This is a part-time, hybrid role with an ASAP start. It’s a great chance to get hands-on in a busy finance team, with the potential to move into a permanent position for the right person.

  • Complete monthly reconciliations, including utilities accruals and creditor accounts, and investigate any variances

  • Be the go-to contact for internal teams and suppliers on utilities queries, responding quickly and keeping everyone updated

About you

  • Previous experience in local government, public sector, healthcare or education
  • Tertiary qualification in a relevant field
  • Minimum 2-3 years in a similar role
