Full Job Description

Imagine having the power to stress-test an entire power grid against a hurricane or thunderstorm before the clouds even gather. That is the reality we are creating at Neara.

We use advanced machine learning to create engineering-grade, physics enabled digital twins of electricity grids across four continents, this helps asset owners understand their biggest challenges and bring the most viable solutions to life across millions of kilometres of infrastructure.

By simulating extreme weather and structural stress at a network-wide scale, we empower the world’s largest utilities to pinpoint risks, optimise investments and build a more resilient global energy future.

Our team is a collection of brilliant minds who are fanatical about making a tangible difference in the real world, utilising AI and machine learning to accelerate everything from data classification to complex scenario analysis. We have built a special culture where innovation thrives because everyone owns the mission and we need smart, creative people to help us scale this impact to every corner of the globe.

This is a hands-on finance role with real ownership. You'll run the day-to-day accounting across our Australian and UK entity - AP, payroll, reconciliations, and compliance - while taking an active role in month-end close and reporting. It's a broad scope that suits someone who enjoys being close to the numbers and wants to keep building their technical skills in a fast-moving environment.

We're a lean team, which means you'll have direct access to the Financial Controller and real influence over how the finance function operates. This role is perfect for an ambitious accountant who wants to develop in the role and learn from an experienced team in a fast-paced technology business. We are looking for someone who is growing in their career, not the finished article, so if you're working towards your CA or CPA and want a role where your studies and your day job reinforce each other, this is it.

What you'll do:

Accounts payable & expenses

Processing, coding and approving supplier invoices; managing creditor payments and weekly payment runs
Processing employee expense reimbursements via Airwallex and completing monthly reconciliations
AP system (Traild) ownership - managing approval workflow, following up with staff on approvals, fixing coding discrepancies, and missing documentation
Ensuring all invoices are paid within terms - no accounts or subscriptions lapsing

Reconciliations & compliance

Weekly bank reconciliations across all accounts, investigating any discrepancies
Quarterly BAS preparation and submission to the ATO
General ledger coding including GST/VAT allocation

Payroll

Monthly AUD payroll processing, STP-compliant
Supporting employee payroll queries and maintaining accurate records

Month-end

Assisting with month-end close - accruals, prepayments, and general ledger maintenance
Maintaining the fixed asset register
Contributing to the close pack and management reporting

Who you are:

You're an ambitious, self-directed accountant who takes pride in accuracy and owns your work. You're comfortable managing a broad scope independently, you notice when something doesn't add up, and you follow it through without needing being asked.

You'll need:

2–4 years' experience in an accounting or finance role - AP, bookkeeping, or assistant accountant level
CA or CPA or working towards becoming qualified
Familiarity with Xero or similar cloud accounting software
A basic understanding of GST, BAS, and Australian payroll
Strong attention to detail and the ability to juggle competing deadlines
Strong bias towards teamwork and working as part of a collective

Nice to have:

Any exposure to month-end tasks - reconciliations, accruals, FAR, or prepayments
Experience with expense platforms such as Airwallex, Dext, Traild or ApprovalMax
Experience in a fast-growth or multi-entity international environment
Exposure to UK bookkeeping, VAT returns and HMRC filings

What we offer:

Competitive salary & meaningful ESOP
Fully flexible working arrangements with a well-stocked office in Redfern
Regular office events
The real benefit is working in a genuinely complex, innovative and industry-leading technology company that's making a genuine difference in the world around us.

Neara values diversity, belonging and equal employment opportunities. We encourage individuals from all backgrounds to apply.

Please note that you will require current and unrestricted working rights to be considered for the role. Unfortunately, we are not in a position to offer visa sponsorship at this time.

No agencies or third-party service providers, please.
