Description:
Are you passionate about the not-for-profit sector and interested in working for a regional organisation making a difference on the ground? Looking for challenges and the opportunity to embrace a role that helps drive the financial success of an environmental organisation with national reach?
If so, this could be the job for you.
About the role
We are seeking an experienced Management Accountant to join our small management and administration team on a full-time basis. In this pivotal, hands-on senior role, you will support the operational financial management of Nature Glenelg Trust (NGT). You will manage all aspects of accounting operations, ensuring compliance and accuracy in financial reporting while upholding our culture of working together to achieve great outcomes for the environment.
In this diverse, niche role, you can expect to undertake a wide range of accounts management tasks from the functional to the strategic, and the role would therefore best suit someone who has at least 8 years of experience in all facets of accounts management and payroll, for a small or mid-sized business with a diverse operating base. Experience working in the not-for-profit sector would be highly regarded but is not essential.
You will work with an enthusiastic and friendly team but have the ability to independently structure and manage your own workload. You will also have the opportunity of a handover period to allow for training and familiarisation with NGT’s current accounts, payroll and project management systems. At NGT we highly value collaboration and a can-do attitude.
About us:
Nature Glenelg Trust is a regionally based not-for-profit environmental organisation delivering practical, science-based projects that protect and restore species and the natural environment. We manage national and regional projects with a particular focus on south-eastern Australia.
Since our launch in 2012, our operations have grown and now involves the collaborative efforts of approximately 30 staff based across multiple regions: Adelaide/southern Fleurieu (SA), Mildura (Vic), western Victoria (between Melbourne and the SA border), Hobart (Tas) and at our regional offices in Mount Gambier (SA) and Warrnambool (Vic).
Many of our ecological staff work remotely from home-based offices to support our geographic reach, and we pride ourselves on offering flexible and inclusive working conditions. Given the nature of the Management Accountant role, we anticipate them being hosted in either our Mt Gambier or Warrnambool office; however, for the right candidate, we may be willing to consider other arrangements, including hybrid or WFH, elsewhere in Victoria or South Australia.
