Financial Accountant | 9 Month Contract

Working for Movember, you’ll help raise millions for men’s health (not for a CEO’s bonus). And all those dollars do a whole lotta good.

Men are dying too young – and it doesn’t have to be that way. 

Around the world, men are facing a health crisis: prostate cancer, testicular cancer, poor mental health and suicide. At Movember we’re on a mission to change the face of men’s health by making it easier for men to talk, act and live longer healthier lives.

Every project, every campaign, every idea adds up to real change. You’ll be part of a moustache-powered crew who believe making an impact and having fun should go hand in hand. Your mission is calling.

DO GOOD. Work for Movember.

Your Mo-Mission (should you choose to accept it):

You'll be the financial backbone supporting our UK, Europe, Ireland and Canada portfolios, operating from our Melbourne base with a genuinely global remit. This isn't a tick-and-flick accounting role. It's hands-on, high-ownership work that keeps Movember's finances accurate, compliant and audit-ready so that every dollar raised goes exactly where it should.

Day to day, you'll own the entry and reconciliation of payments flowing in and out of our bank accounts into NetSuite, making sure nothing slips through the cracks. Month end is yours too: posting journals for prepayments and accruals, preparing balance sheet reconciliations across four territories, and pulling together revenue reconciliations that give the business a clear financial picture.

You'll take the lead on invoicing and cash collection, and manage the recording of online donation income across multiple countries, including monthly reconciliation of payment gateways. One of the more unique parts of this role is processing and preparing annual Gift Aid claims to HMRC, a meaningful piece of compliance work that directly supports Movember's charitable fundraising in the UK.

When audit season rolls around, you'll be in the thick of it, collating work papers for the annual audit process across Movember Europe and Movember Canada. And beyond the core responsibilities, you'll be a reliable support to the Head of Financial Control, pitching in on ad hoc reporting, GST return preparation, and whatever else the business needs.

If you're someone who takes genuine pride in clean books, a strong audit trail, and finance work that actually matters, this one's for you.

No Moustache Required - but the following are:

• A CA, CPA or CIMA designation with at least two years' experience in a similar role

• Sharp attention to detail and the ability to juggle multiple deadlines without dropping the ball

• Strong written and verbal communication skills — you'll be working with colleagues across multiple countries

• Solid Microsoft Office skills, particularly Excel

• A collaborative, team-first mindset and a genuine can-do attitude

• Comfort working flexibly across time zones as part of a global finance team

Not Mission Critical - but for extra street cred:

• Experience with NetSuite and/or Concur

GOOD CAUSE:

Working for Movember, you’ll help turn ideas (and moustaches) into millions for men’s health. Every bit we raise changes the face of men’s health by funding research, improving treatments, and supporting programs that help save lives

We’re even shaping government policies on men’s health worldwide. By meeting directly with lawmakers, and helping them understand how more investment on men’s health benefits not just men, but all the communities they serve.

GOOD VIBES:

We love weekends. That’s why our Fridays finish early for nine months of the year. But we also love our office vibe. Because here, it always feels like something big is about to happen. Be it an office-wide surprise birthday party (with cake!) or an open invite for all to hit the pub.

Come the hairy season, the energy cranks up. We’re talking celebrity visits. Live stunts on-site for TV and radio. And when we hit a fundraising milestone, the office gong might even go off. But, for those who prefer calm, no probs: hybrid working means you work where you feel best.

GOOD CREW:

Spoiler alert: we’re a no-ego, all-impact crew. That means everyone gets a say, from new starters to those leading the charge. Collaboration over hierarchies, curiosity over rigid process. And it’s true across all our offices worldwide. We work as one, sharing expertise and celebrating wins. All in the name of making the biggest impact across the globe. United, we Mo.

We offer:

• Flexible hybrid working from home and our modern Richmond office

• Finish work at 2pm on Fridays (Dec-Aug)

• NFP salary packaging (pay less tax)

• 13 weeks paid parental leave and 5 weeks annual leave

• Fun & collaborative culture with employee social events

• Free Headspace subscription and other wellbeing initiative

• Relaxed dress code

Boy, do we know the feeling of being judged. (Over how we look, and other things that shouldn’t matter.) Being different is how we started. And it’s also helped us raise $1 billion for men’s health. So, we know the power of diverse experiences, skills and perspectives.

And another impressive number is our WGEA gender pay gap: it sits at a big, fat, round 0%. If you’ve got the relevant skills and the right attitude, let nothing stand in your way of firing off your application.

Movember is stronger when Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples are part of our crew. We want you to feel supported in exploring opportunities with us. That’s why before applying, we invite you to yarn with Raymond Rosendale, Australian Indigenous Programs Manager, in a virtual catch-up to talk about the role, our community work, or just to share ideas.

Do you want to DO GOOD?
If so, we’d love to hear from you.
