Thanks for stopping by. We know job hunting can be a little time-consuming, and you’re probably keen to find out what’s on offer—so we’ll get straight to the point.
Where and how you can work
Our flagship campus is in Sydney, Australia, but with many of our Canvanauts calling the Philippines home, our office in Manila is a buzzing place. Your role is designed to help you succeed both at the office and at home, so we’ve created an environment that truly empowers you to thrive.

- Handling ad-hoc payments and supporting management with custom financial reporting needs
- Reviewing and reconciling credit card statements, ensuring correct GL account and cost tagging in Netsuite
- Ensuring compliance through the organization and review of supporting documents (e.g., invoices, receipts) for audits
- Partnering with the wider finance team and business units to achieve goals, including meeting Shared Services SLAs and assisting with year-end audits
You’re probably a match if:
- You’re someone who brings a strong foundation in accounting, ideally with hands-on experience in travel and expense management.
- You’re confident navigating general accounting principles and have worked with ERP systems like Netsuite
- You are familiar with Journal creation in Netsuite and reconciling vendor bills in line with Month End close processes
- Tools like Navan, Expensify, or similar tools are already in your toolkit, and you’re not just familiar—you’re fluent
- Your keen eye for detail and knack for reconciliation make you a go-to for getting things right the first time
- Communication is your strength, and your documentation game is strong
- Plus, you know your way around Google Workspace like a pro
