Accounts Payable (Part-time)

Accounts Payable Superstar (Part-Time) — Join the Sunlover Team!

24 hrs/week | Cairns | Xero + Traild wizardry welcome

Ever dreamed of a job where the office view includes the Coral Sea?

Sunlover Reef Cruises - taking travellers out to the Great Barrier Reef every day, and Hides Hotel Cairns - a landmark right in the heart of the city. Behind the reef trips, the pontoons, the hotel check-ins and the happy tourists, there's a finance team keeping the wheels turning — and we need a sharp, organised, detail-loving Accounts Payable person to help us do it.

The gig, in a nutshell: Part-time, 24 hours a week (we can talk about how those hours are structured — we're flexible for the right person). You'll be the person who makes sure our suppliers — from fuel providers to fabricators, caterers to contractors — get paid accurately and on time.

What you'll actually be doing:

• Processing supplier invoices and matching them against purchase orders/receipts
• Running payments through Xero and keeping our books immaculate
• Using Traild to streamline invoice approvals and keep everything auditable (previous Traild experience is a big plus, but we'll happily show you the ropes if you're quick on the uptake)
• Reconciling supplier statements and chasing down the odd missing invoice
• Liaising with our operations, sales, engineering and hotel teams to sort out queries before they become problems
• Supporting our small but mighty finance team with ad hoc admin and reporting

You'll be a great fit if you:

• Have solid AP or bookkeeping experience (bonus points for multi-entity environments)
• Know your way around Xero like the back of your hand
• Are the kind of person who gets a small thrill from a perfectly reconciled account
• Communicate clearly and don't let things slip through the cracks
• Can work independently but also enjoy being part of a genuinely friendly team
• Are Cairns-based (or planning to be!) and keen for a role that fits around life, school pick-ups, study, or your own reef-side lifestyle

Why Sunlover ?

• A genuinely iconic local business
• Part-time hours that respect your time
• A close-knit, down-to-earth team who'll actually know your name
• The occasional reminder that your workplace helps people tick "see the Great Barrier Reef" off their bucket list

Ready to balance the books for a business that balances on the edge of a World Heritage reef?

Hit apply and tell us a bit about your AP experience — and if you've got Xero and Traild runs on the board, we want to hear about it.
