PikPok Looking for Graduate Accountant at Wellington, Wellington Region, New Zealand Full Time

PikPok is Aotearoa New Zealand’s oldest and largest video game developer and publisher. We strive to successfully provide rich game experiences, crafted by talented teams who are curious, take ownership, and collaborate well. We are committed to providing a safe and supportive workplace that enables our teams to make games which will be enjoyed worldwide across mobile, desktop, and console.

About the role:

We’re looking for a Graduate who is working towards their full professional accounting qualification (CA or CPA) but who wants to work in a corporate environment. You will be responsible for all day-to-day processing and operations of the finance function, while being supported and mentored professionally by the Finance Manager and CFO. PikPok has a strong culture of supporting and developing its people and this would be an excellent entry level opportunity with scope to grow professionally. We want someone who is open minded, motivated to learn and grow, and who can cope with our passionate gamers and developers (who are definitely not accountants). Being a young company, we are still maturing. As you learn our systems and processes, you can start to contribute to helping refine and improve them, and maybe have some fun along the way!

The Graduate Accountant’s responsibilities include:

• Daily downloads from the bank portal and updating of the cashflow forecast model and bank/ credit card reconciliation in XERO
• Daily inputting of inbound bills and expenses to the AP ledger
• Monthly extract and load of Revenue journal and invoice production (Including supporting statements and analysis)
• Monthly/quarterly production of the royalties payable including NRWT calculation and associated journals and invoice generation
• GST/FBT/NRWT return preparation to review level
• Monthly manual journal preparation and posting
• Post month end balance sheet reconciliations
• Production of draft monthly/quarterly Financial Statements
• Supporting with ad hoc requests for analysis and generally support the Finance Manager and CFO as required

Requirements

• Have a graduate degree in business with a major in accountancy from a New Zealand or Australian university (or on track to complete by the end of 2023)
• Be a CAANZ provisional member (or equivalent with CPA Australia or alike) or able to attain provisional membership by the end of 2023
• Some basic experience in simple accounting processing would be helpful, as would exposure to XERO (does not have to be a paid role)
• Be accurate at inputting of data and self-check work
• The ability to communicate effectively and with confidence
• Must have a clean criminal record
• Cannot have been subject to bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings
• A positive ‘can-do’ attitude, great work ethic and strong sense of initiative
• Excellent team skills, we are a small tight team, and we often have to support the wider unit when capacity is constrained
