Account Payable Officer - Property Investment

We’ve partnered with a private Australian property investment and development group focused on long-term growth, managing everything from construction through to asset ownership and operations. Their portfolio spans high-quality residential, commercial and mixed-use developments, with an integrated in-house finance and construction team supporting the full lifecycle.

About the role:

We are looking for an experienced Accounts Payable Officer to join the in-house finance team, supporting the day-to-day financial operations of the group.

This role has been created to provide additional support within the accounts payable function during a busy period and to ensure continuity across the business. You will work closely with a long-tenured Accounts Payable professional who will support your onboarding and provide training on systems and processes.

Your focus will be on operational, overhead and property maintenance invoices across multiple entities. This is a hands-on role that requires accuracy, patience and strong attention to detail rather than speed or automation.

This is a full-time, five-days-in-the-office role based in Sydney.

What you’ll do:

• Enter and process supplier invoices across multiple entities

• Create and maintain supplier records within the finance system

• Reconcile supplier statements and resolve discrepancies

• Allocate invoices accurately across the correct entities and cost centres

• Manage intercompany allocations and ensure accurate coding

• Communicate professionally with suppliers via email and phone

• Verify supplier bank details and support payment accuracy

• Assist with general accounts payable tasks and ad-hoc finance support

What you’ll bring:

• Proven experience in an Accounts Payable role

• Strong attention to detail and comfort with manual data entry

• Experience working across multiple entities and intercompany structures

• Confidence communicating with suppliers in a professional and calm manner

• Intermediate Excel skills (sorting, basic formulas, reconciliation support)

• Experience using accounting or property systems such as MRI, Nexus, Yardi or similar

• A steady, organised approach and the ability to work methodically

Who you are:

You are calm, patient and reliable, with a natural sense of ownership over your work. You take pride in accuracy and understand the importance of getting the details right. You are comfortable working in a structured environment, handling routine tasks consistently, and supporting the wider finance team when needed.

This role suits someone who enjoys accounts payable as a discipline and is looking for a stable, long-term position rather than a fast-track progression role.

Why you’ll love working here:

• Support and training from an experienced, long-tenured AP professional

• A stable, privately owned business with long-term asset ownership

• A close-knit finance team with a collaborative working style

• Clear role scope with realistic expectations

• Chef-cooked lunches provided in the office twice a week

• Team events that encourage connection and a positive office culture

• An office-based role with structure, routine and consistency
