Join an established Australian pressure washing and property maintenance business as the person who keeps its books and its days in order. Fully remote, long-term, and with real room to grow as the company scales.
Role Summary
This role owns the full bookkeeping cycle for the business in Xero, from bank and account reconciliations, payroll and BAS preparation through to invoicing, collections and cash flow reporting, giving the owners an accurate and current picture of the business at all times. Alongside the books, you will run the administration that keeps a busy trades operation moving, including the shared inbox, job scheduling and team rostering in AroFlo, quote preparation and follow-up, and light social media support. You will work directly with the business owners as their all-round administrative and financial support, and as the company grows there is scope for the role to expand with it.
Key Responsibilities
- Perform regular bank and account reconciliations in Xero, keeping the books accurate and up to date
- Prepare the BAS ahead of each lodgement deadline, ensuring GST and reporting obligations are met on time
- Process payroll accurately and on schedule, including superannuation and leave records
- Raise and send customer invoices from completed jobs in AroFlo, and follow up outstanding payments professionally and persistently
- Prepare regular financial reports, including cash flow forecasts, profit and loss and aged receivables
- Manage the business inbox, responding to customer enquiries and triaging messages so nothing slips through
- Schedule jobs and manage the team roster in AroFlo, coordinating bookings, technicians and site details
- Prepare and send quotes, follow up on outstanding quotes and help convert enquiries into booked work
- Support the business social media, posting project photos and updates and responding to messages and reviews
- Handle general administration, including supplier coordination, record keeping, insurance and compliance documents, and process improvements as the business grows
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
