Make a meaningful difference with us
We’re looking for someone who wants to make the world a little better through small moments that leave big impacts.
As a Technical Accountant, you’ll step into a broad, hands-on role where curiosity, critical thinking and fresh ideas are genuinely valued. Working closely with the Technical Accounting Manager and teams across the business, you’ll analyse complex transactions, solve challenging accounting issues, support statutory reporting and strengthen financial reporting practices across the UnitingCare Queensland Group.
You’ll gain exposure to a diverse and complex group operating across health, aged care, retirement living, community and disability services, providing opportunities to work on a wide variety of accounting, reporting and strategic business matters.
If you’re self-motivated, accountable and confident taking ownership without needing constant direction, this is an opportunity to make a real impact beyond the scope of a traditional financial accounting role. We are seeking someone with strong intellectual curiosity, a passion for understanding how businesses, transactions and systems work, and a genuine desire to learn. You’ll enjoy exploring the “why” behind complex issues, continuously developing your technical expertise and contributing fresh thinking to the way we solve problems and improve processes.
This role is ideal for someone who enjoys asking questions, understanding how things work, and going beyond the numbers to understand the underlying business, commercial and operational drivers behind transactions and outcomes.
Please note, this position is Full Time, Permanent. Flexibility is important to us, and we know it is to you, too - this role supports hybrid working by agreement.
