Account Administrator

Role overview

We are seeking a highly organised and detail-oriented Office Administrator / Accounts professional to join a long-standing, family-owned manufacturing and industrial company in Rosebank, Avondale. This is a practical, hands-on position that covers a broad mix of finance, payroll, inventory, and general office support. You will work alongside a small and supportive team, with a real opportunity to make a meaningful contribution to day-to-day operations.

Experience with Accredo would be helpful, although it is not a requirement. If you have worked with a similar accounting or ERP platform, you should be able to learn the system quickly.

Working hours

The role is scheduled for Monday to Friday, 9:30am to 2:30pm, across 5 days each week. The hours are flexible and can be discussed for the right candidate.

Key responsibilities

You will support the full finance and operations cycle, with duties spanning accounts, payroll, inventory, reporting, and general administration.

Accounts and bank reconciliations

• Enter daily receipts and payments into the accounting system.
• Carry out accurate and timely bank reconciliations.
• Process creditor payments, including payments to overseas suppliers.

Payroll and compliance

• Run payroll and ensure all calculations are correct.
• Handle IRD-related obligations such as PAYE, GST, and FBT.
• Calculate, submit, and process payments within compliance deadlines.

Accounts payable and receivable

• Process invoices, credit notes, and rebates related to sales and returns.
• Maintain both debtor and creditor ledgers.
• Assist with month-end closing across AR, AP, cashbook, stock, and the general ledger.

Inventory and systems

• Create and update inventory codes, BOMs, and product records.
• Record goods received and keep system information current.
• Support stocktakes, reconciliations, and end-of-count adjustments.
• Maintain pricing and product catalogues in Excel.

Reporting and month-end support

• Help with month-end tasks across all relevant modules.
• Prepare general ledger accounts up to balance sheet level.
• Assist the accountant with journals and year-end adjustments.

What we are looking for

We are looking for someone with solid accounts administration or broader all-round finance experience. You should be comfortable working with payroll, GST, and basic IRD compliance, and you will need a practical approach with strong attention to detail. This role suits someone who works well in a small team and is happy to contribute wherever needed. Experience with Accredo or another similar system would be an advantage, but it is not essential.

Why this opportunity stands out

This is a stable, long-term position in a family-run business where people are recognised personally, not just by role. The job offers variety, responsibility, and the chance to take ownership of your work while being backed by an experienced team. If you enjoy a hands-on environment and like working across multiple finance functions in a straightforward manufacturing setting, this could be a great fit.
