About the business and the role

Aarque Group Limited is a New Zealand privately owned, leading supplier of commercial wide format printers and consumables to the digital commercial printing and design industry.

An opportunity has opened up to join our Administration / Finance team in a Company Accountant role which reports directly to the Chief Operating Officer [COO]. This role will be responsible for the accurate and timely preparation of financial information that complies with tax, audit and statutory requirements and provides the Senior Management team and Board with the financial information required for managing the company.

The role is varied and your responsibilities would include; financial accounting preparation and reporting, tax and compliance reporting, daily cashflow management, forex, budgeting, forecasting, analysis of financial information and assistance with the auditing process. You will also maintain the integrity of the general ledger through posting accurate journals, conducting regular balance sheet reconciliations and complete payroll processing.

It is likely that in a previous role, you have obtained your Chartered Accountancy qualification and are now looking to build on your commercial experience.
