Meet the Finance team

LEAP is a rapidly growing organisation with a global footprint, and our Finance Team are the resilient quick-thinkers who keep that growth strategic and sustainable. A finance career here is about more than the numbers – it’s about the insight and judgement that help our business, and our clients, grow.

What you'll do

Reporting to the Accounts Receivable Team Lead, you’ll join LEAP’s Finance Team as an Accounts Officer, responsible for a broad range of accounting tasks that support the wider business. You’ll start by learning the ropes in Accounts Receivable – processing debtor payments and resolving customer account queries – and as you grow and become more familiar with how we operate, you’ll have plenty of opportunities to expand into the areas that interest you most.

To make this happen, you will:

• Assist with any billing processes as required.
• Process new business and renewal contracts in LEAP’s billing system, ensuring all paperwork is complete.
• Process subscription amendments as required.
• Maintain Zuora processing documentation.
• Investigate and resolve customer queries specific to invoicing.
• Identify the cause and solution for various customer queries, working with other departments to resolve and reconcile incorrect details on client accounts.
• Assist with overdue collection of outstanding debt.
• Process receipts and ensure they are allocated to the correct debtor accounts in a timely manner.
• Work with your team to ensure shared inbox items are allocated correctly between Accounts Receivable and Collections.
• Assist with ad-hoc Accounts Payable tasks, managing expenses in our integrated systems, Lightyear and Expensify.
• Assist with ad-hoc accounting tasks, getting exposure to our reporting system, NetSuite.

What you'll bring

• Managing work (includes time management): effectively managing one’s time and resources to ensure that work is completed efficiently.
• Applied learning: assimilating and applying new job-related information in a timely manner.
• Communication: clearly conveying information to team members and clients in a timely and constructive manner.
• Work standards: setting high standards of performance for yourself and others; assuming responsibility and accountability for successfully completing tasks; self-imposing standards of excellence rather than having standards imposed.
• Building relationships: developing and maintaining ongoing relationships with both team members and customers.
• LEAP is an inclusive, people-first company committed to breaking down institutional barriers that keep people from reaching their potential. If you meet some, but not all of the requirements above, we encourage you to still submit your application.

• Flexible and hybrid working. We'd like to find this person in Sydney, but we want you to work in a way that suits you and we're open to flexible arrangements that support you.

There are opportunities galore to expand your career based on where your interests lie.
