US Senior Bookkeeper (Finance Lead) - Work From Home

One of Australia’s standout consumer brand success stories is taking its next bold step- expanding into the US and building a global footprint. With strong growth at home and an exciting pipeline of new venues launching internationally, this marks a pivotal moment for the business.

The Senior Bookkeeper will work closely with the Finance Director to establish and lead bookkeeping operations for newly created US-based joint ventures. Sitting right at the heart of this expansion, you’ll play a key role in shaping how finance is run as the business scales- supporting the opening of multiple venues, building structure, and bringing clarity to a fast-moving environment.

This is far more than a traditional bookkeeping role. It’s an opportunity to step into real ownership - driving US financial operations, building processes from the ground up, and growing into leading a small team as the business expands. We’re looking for someone confident, proactive, and excited by the chance to be part of something being built, not just maintained. You’ll be expected to go beyond the numbers - providing analysis and commentary on monthly results, identifying trends, and helping the business make better decisions.

You’ll build a real understanding of how the business works, partnering with both the Australian finance team and local US operations to drive performance.

This is a hands-on, high-growth environment. You’ll be at the heart of a brand that’s rapidly scaling across multiple markets, with the chance to shape how finance supports the business as it grows. You’ll have direct exposure to senior leaders and decision-makers, and your insights will help steer the business. If you’re curious, commercially minded, and want to learn fast, you’ll thrive here. You’ll need to be comfortable with ambiguity, able to think on your feet, and ready to make an impact from day one.

Our client is on a journey to become a global brand - this is a rare chance to be part of something big, with the energy and ambition of a company that’s just getting started!
