Spain, Philippines jobs in POEA

This is a remote position.

Role Overview

We are seeking a highly experienced, detail-obsessed Senior Bookkeeper to take full ownership of day-to-day financial operations for an Australian-based business.

This is not a basic data-entry role. You will operate at the level of a junior accountant — responsible for maintaining clean, accurate financials, ensuring compliance with Australian tax obligations, and producing reliable reporting that supports decision-making.

You will be expected to work autonomously, identify issues proactively, and maintain a high standard of financial integrity.

• Award interpretation (if applicable), leave tracking, and compliance

Import / Export & Multi-Currency

• Understand GST and tax implications of imports and exports

Reporting & Analysis

• Prepare monthly financial reports (P&L, Balance Sheet, Cash Flow)
• Identify discrepancies, trends, and anomalies
• Support budgeting and forecasting with accurate data
• Provide insights, not just numbers

Process Improvement

• Identify inefficiencies and improve financial workflows
• Maintain clean, audit-ready books at all times
• Implement controls to reduce errors and risk

Work Environment & Expectations.

While this is a work-from-home position, it is important to note that this is a full-time role—not a freelance or flexible-hour arrangement. You will be expected to work a fixed shift and maintain a high level of professionalism and accountability, just as you would in an office environment.

✅ This role requires:

• Discipline and commitment to set working hours (strict shift times, not flexible)
• Use of time tracking software during work hours
