About Manukora Manukora is a New Zealand-based Manuka honey brand on a mission to bring the world's most authentic, ethically sourced honey to people who care about what they put in their bodies. We sell direct-to-consumer, on Amazon, and through retail partners across the US, GCC, and UK. We're a fast-growing team that moves with urgency, values real relationships, and sets the bar — not just meets it. About the Opportunity You will be the engine of Manukora's finance function — delivering world-class accounting and compliance performance across the close, the balance sheet, and a growing piece of our audit and costing work, as we scale globally. We want a Financial Accountant with real fundamentals and a great attitude to match: someone who makes sense of ambiguity fast, owns their work end-to-end, and never stops looking for a better way to do it — then moves fast and gets it right. You'll work closely with our Finance Manager as the function scales, with real license to shape how things run. What You'll Own Monthly close — accurate, on time, every time, no exceptions. You'll drive your lanes of the close calendar end-to-end: journals, accruals, and reconciliations completed to a standard that survives review untouched. Inventory reconciliation is a key focus — variances get hunted down and closed out inside the cycle, never carried forward. Audit-readiness and compliance, built in, not bolted on. You'll help deliver our consolidated annual IFRS financial statements, keep every balance sheet account you own backed by a completed workpaper at month-end sign-off, and help rebuild our accounting policies and controls documentation from the ground up. Local and global tax filings are handled on time, without exception. Standard costing, sharpened as we grow. You'll help develop Manukora's standard costing methodology — BOMs, landed costs, overhead absorption — working shoulder-to-shoulder with Operations so it reflects how product actually moves, and keeping Xero and Cin7 master data clean and governed. Who You Are • You hold yourself personally accountable for the accuracy of the numbers — if something's wrong in your area, you own it. No deflecting. • You treat the close as a commitment, not a moving target — sequencing the work, chasing dependencies, clearing blockers before they land. • Your accounting fundamentals are rock solid — debits and credits, first principles, no shortcuts — and you know when to dig in yourself versus when to escalate. The rest, we'll teach. • You default to automation — every manual task is a problem waiting to be solved, and you're already fluent with AI tools to move faster and sharper. • Due dates are your worst-case scenario, not your target — if a return can be filed the day the period closes, that's what you aim for. • You're hungry to develop — this is a launchpad to the next level, not a place to coast. Experience Required • 2-3 years' experience in accounting, finance, or industry • Working towards CA (or similar qualification) • Public accounting background preferred • Comfortable with AI tools and structured workflow tools Why Manukora? • Be part of a high-growth, purpose-driven brand that truly cares about its people and its product • Complimentary health insurance with Southern Cross • A monthly product allowance — so you can taste the goodness for yourself As part of the application process, please submit your CV and cover letter. Within your cover letter, please include a link to a Loom video (up to 5 minutes) covering: a quick self-intro and your work history/experience so far, why you'd be a great fit for this specific role, and what's drawn you to Manukora. No written summary needed — just the video. Applications without a cover letter and loom link will not be considered.

Right now there are 11,726 open accountant positions on WorkMundi. The US leads with 3,242 jobs, followed by India (2,285), Australia (1,359), Philippines (629), and Singapore (441). If you've been thinking your options are limited to one country, look again.
One practical move: search by country first, not just by job title. The accountant role differs in scope, compliance, and day-to-day work depending on where you'd be based. A position in Australia may involve different tax codes, audit standards, and reporting cycles than one in India or the US. Narrowing by location before you read descriptions saves time and helps you spot roles that actually fit your expertise.
When you interview for an accountant role, expect this question: "Walk me through how you'd handle a transaction that doesn't reconcile." Hiring managers ask it because they want to see your troubleshooting method, not just whether you found the error. Practice explaining your logic step-by-step — what you check first, how you document it, and how you escalate if needed. That matters more than the final answer.
