Senior Accountant - Corporate Reporting

Your Role

Reporting to the Corporate Reporting Manager, you will play a pivotal role in shaping Megaport’s reporting framework. This role elevates beyond standard month-end ledger consolidations to focus directly on key reporting deliverables: leading the project implementation of Megaport’s ESG and sustainability reporting framework, executing complex technical accounting assessments, and driving the global statutory reporting process.

Working closely with the Corporate Reporting Manager, CFO, external auditors, and global teams, you will perform first-level reviews of financial statements for overseas subsidiaries and ensure compliance with emerging technical standards (including AASB S1/S2 climate disclosures and IFRS updates). You will combine strong technical precision with cross-functional collaboration to deliver high-quality, investor-grade disclosures in a fast-paced environment.

Sustainability Reporting: Lead the design and implementation of Megaport’s sustainability reporting framework, establishing data-gathering processes aligned with AASB S1/S2 climate disclosure requirements and global ESG reporting standards.

Global Statutory Reporting: Oversee the delivery of annual statutory financial statements across Megaport’s international subsidiary entities. Perform first-level reviews of financial statements and work papers prepared by local accounting teams and outsourced compliance partners.

Technical Accounting: Lead the preparation of technical accounting papers for complex transactions, new IFRS/AASB accounting standards, and group policy updates to support the business and satisfy auditor requirements.

External & ASX Reporting: Support the Corporate Reporting Manager in drafting interim and annual financial reports, board packs, and ASX market disclosures.

Audit Management: Act as a key technical liaison for external auditors during interim and year-end audits, coordinating audit deliverables and resolving complex technical queries.

Process Improvement: Identify and drive automation and process improvement initiatives across group reporting, international compliance, and ESG workflows.

CA or CPA qualification (essential). 

5+ years of post-qualification experience (PQE) in financial reporting, statutory accounting, or technical accounting advisory, gained within a public-listed corporate or a Big 4/mid-tier audit background. 

Strong technical IFRS knowledge, with demonstrated experience preparing complex technical accounting papers.

Solid understanding of, or active exposure to, corporate ESG/sustainability reporting standards (e.g., AASB S1/S2 or ISSB).

Experience reviewing international statutory accounts and managing outsourced accounting or compliance service providers across global jurisdictions.

Track record of supporting ASX (or equivalent listed) reporting requirements. 

Strong analytical, project management, and written communication skills with the confidence to communicate technical concepts to executive stakeholders. 

Ability to work independently, manage competing priorities, and step out of day-to-day transaction processing to focus on elevated reporting requirements.
