Are you looking for a fully remote role and enjoy a good audit? This one's for you!

A global SaaS business is looking for a technically strong Financial Accountant to take full ownership of their global audit for the next 5 months.

This is a contract assignment (initially 5 months) with a laser focus on statutory audit, supporting the CFO and commercial finance team through a high-volume, multi-entity review process. The business has operations in Australia, the UK, Ireland and Poland, with reporting under AASB/IFRS and a remote-first finance team.

If you're audit trained and love tidying up reconciliations, working with auditors and managing the detail, this is your dream contract.

This role is perfect if you are on a working holiday visa, a returning accountant between jobs, or a technical finance professional, who genuinely enjoys audit work and wants to be trusted to get it done.

What’s in it for you:

  • Fully remote role – laptop shipped to you, onboarding covered wherever you are in Australia

  • 5-month contract with immediate start

  • Work directly with the UK-based CFO and senior finance team

  • Tidy up and manage the delivery of audits across all regions (AU, UK, IE, PL)

  • High-trust, low-ego team. Trusted to get it done and be appreciated for it

  • $110k + Super equivalent

The Role:

  • Manage the preparation and delivery of global and local statutory audits

  • Liaise with local and international auditors across multiple entities

  • Assist with clean-up of prior-year files and audit documentation

  • Support the CFO and broader team with cashflow and close-out activities

  • Respond to ad hoc requests from audit partners and senior leadership

  • Deliver files, explanations, and reconciliations on time and with accuracy

  • Work with offshore and cross-functional teams across Australia, UK and Europe

Who are we looking for:

  • You’re CA, CPA qualified or international equivalent

  • You have strong technical accounting knowledge and experience with statutory audits

  • You’re detail-driven, highly organised and calm under pressure

  • You enjoy audit – and want a role where it’s the main focus, not the side dish

  • You’re confident with remote work and can manage time and delivery independently

  • You're available immediately or at short notice

For more information, please apply ASAP.
