The role has a strong management accounting focus, supporting project performance, financial analysis, invoicing, reporting, and day-to-day coordination with consultants across the business. This is a good opportunity if you are wanting more than just technical accounting work and enjoy partnering with people to improve outcomes and support business performance.

What you will do

In this role, you will:

• Assist with the management of all admin and financial activities
• Assist with accounts payable, accounts receivable, and reconciliations using Xero
• Provide support for end-of-month processes
• Support project performance and consultant support
• Run performance reports using PowerBI
• Support accounting process development to gain efficiencies across various Morphum functions
• Work closely with the P&C team to support leave management for payroll

About you

• You have a minimum of a bachelor's degree in accounting or similar field (advantageous but not necessary).
• Proven track record with at least 1 year of experience applying fundamental accounting knowledge.
• Background in consultancy or SMEs
• You have been working with Xero Accounting Software and can competently use it in all respects.
• You enjoy building relationships and are comfortable working across different business functions.
• You enjoy identifying better ways of working and improving efficiency and contributing ideas.
• You hold strong environmental values and have a passion for sustainability.
• You actively engage in a culture of teaching and learning and are willing to continuously develop knowledge of tikanga, diversity, equity and inclusion, sustainable outcomes, and low-carbon initiatives.
• You are located in Auckland.

‍

So why work with us?

Our positive team culture strongly focuses on collaboration, project outcomes, and sustainability.

We offer benefits such as a sustainable transport subsidy, flexible working arrangements and a professional development budget. We actively support your learning and growth.

We believe deeply in social change through diversity, equity and inclusion.  As a proud Diversity Agenda member, Morphum fosters a diverse workforce and an inclusive workplace.
