About the role

M87 is looking for an organised and detail-oriented Accounts Assistant to manage the day-to-day administration of our finances.

This is a hands-on financial administration role, focused on keeping our accounts organised and running smoothly, rather than providing accounting or tax advice.

  • Creating, sending and following up on invoices in Xero
  • Reconciling bank account transactions and keeping financial records up to date in Xero
  • Coordinating artist and agency payments, including invoicing deposits and balances, processing artist payouts and issuing commission invoices
  • Working with our Touring Coordinator and Bookings & Programming Lead to keep artist payments and tour settlements on track
  • Flagging upcoming payments, outstanding invoices and anything requiring attention ahead of our weekly pay run
  • Keeping our financial records organised and working with our accountant to meet BAS and reporting deadlines

About you

  • Studying, qualified or experienced in accounting, finance or bookkeeping
  • Hands-on experience using Xero, with Airwallex experience highly regarded
  • Comfortable with invoicing, reconciliations and day-to-day financial administration
  • Highly organised with strong attention to detail
  • Confident managing a regular weekly workflow independently
  • A proactive communicator who's comfortable following up with team members and external partners
  • A genuine love for electronic music and live events

The details

  • Ongoing independent contractor engagement (ABN required)
  • Flexible hours, typically around 1 day per week, increasing during our busy summer event season
  • Hybrid arrangement, with at least one day per week based in our Collingwood office
