Most intermediate accounting roles put you inside a machine someone else built, on a narrow slice of the close. Here you are helping build the machine.

You will work across multiple entities at once, which is the fastest way to learn how businesses actually differ. Consulting revenue recognised against tracked hours behaves nothing like recurring software revenue, which behaves nothing like a data centre lease. You will see all of it in the same month.

You will also sit two steps from the investment team.

When Onni

Capital acquires a business, the accounting integration is real work with a real deadline, not a theoretical exercise.

We expect you to automate the parts of your job that should be automated. Nobody here is measured on hours spent in a spreadsheet.

How We Work

Onni Capital is being designed as a high ownership, low bureaucracy team. We work in small project groups, test ideas quickly, put early products in front of users, and make decisions based on evidence rather than hierarchy. Team members are expected to:

Challenge assumptions and communicate directly

Take responsibility for outcomes, not simply produce recommendations

Use modern AI tools to work faster and produce better results

Share unfinished work early and improve it through feedback

Move comfortably between strategic analysis and hands on execution

Know when to continue investing in an idea and when to stop

Operate effectively without a detailed playbook

This is not a role for someone who wants months of consensus building, a rigid , or a narrowly defined set of responsibilities. It is for someone who learns quickly, takes initiative, enjoys solving ambiguous problems, and wants to help build something from the ground up.

What You Will Do

Own the month end close across multiple entities, including journal entries, accruals, prepaid amortisation, depreciation schedules, and account reconciliations

Maintain the general ledger and chart of accounts for the operating companies Onni Capital builds, and keep them consistent with the group structure

Prepare bank, credit card, and intercompany reconciliations, and investigate and clear reconciling items rather than carrying them forward

Process accounts payable and accounts receivable, manage payment runs within approval limits, and maintain vendor and customer records

Prepare monthly working papers and supporting schedules to a standard that stands up to external audit without rework

Support the quarterly investor reporting cycle and the annual audit, including preparation of items on the auditor request list

Prepare and file GST, PST, and other indirect tax returns, and support corporate tax preparation with external advisors

Maintain fixed asset registers, lease schedules, and debt schedules

Support the billing and revenue recognition process for Panni Consulting, including tracked hours, internal preferred rates, and external market rates

Assist with the setup of accounting systems, banking, expense tools, and approval workflows for new entities as they are formed

Prepare variance analysis and flag anything that looks wrong before it reaches the Controller

Use modern AI and finance tooling to automate reconciliation, data entry, and reporting tasks

Document processes and operating standards so the close can be run consistently and handed over cleanly





What You Bring

Three or more years of full cycle accounting experience, with ownership of a month end close rather than participation in one

CPA designation, or active enrolment in the CPA program with meaningful progress made

Strong technical accounting fundamentals, including accruals, revenue recognition, working capital, and the ability to explain why an entry is correct rather than only that it balances

Experience with multi entity accounting, including intercompany transactions

Advanced Excel capability, including comfort building and auditing a schedule from scratch

Hands on experience with QuickBooks or a comparable accounting system, including initial setup or migration

Demonstrated ability to use contemporary AI tools to automate and improve accounting work

Strong attention to detail, and the discipline to reconcile rather than assume The confidence to raise something that looks wrong, including when it originated with someone senior

Comfort working in a small, fast moving team where the process may not exist until you write it

High personal standards for accuracy, quality, ownership, and follow through

Nice to Have

Experience in private equity, fund accounting, investment management, or professional services

Experience in construction, industrial services, real estate, or technology

Experience supporting an external audit as a preparer

Experience setting up the accounting function for a newly formed company

Exposure to indirect tax across multiple jurisdictions

Familiarity with tools such as Claude, Linear, Slack, Float, Stripe, or similar platforms

What Success Looks Like

Success in this role is measured by whether the close runs on time without anyone chasing it, and whether the working papers behind it hold up when someone external looks at them.

Within the first 90 days:

You have taken ownership of the month end close across the entities assigned to you and are running it to a fixed calendar

Bank, credit card, and intercompany reconciliations are current, with no unexplained items carried forward

Accounts payable and receivable are running cleanly, with payment runs executed within approval limits

You have identified at least one recurring manual task worth automating and started on it

Within the first year

The close is consistently on time across every entity, with no repeat issues from month to month

Working papers go to the external auditor and come back without material rework

Indirect tax filings are accurate and on time across every jurisdiction

Billing and revenue recognition for Panni Consulting is running correctly, across internal preferred rates and external market rates

New entities are set up properly at formation rather than cleaned up six months later

You catch errors before the Controller does, including errors that originated upstream of you





Enough of the routine work is automated that transaction volume can grow without the close taking longer The Controller can be away for two weeks without the close slipping

What Makes This Role Different

You will work across every business Onni Capital builds rather than one set of books. In a single month, you may be involved in:

Closing the books for a software company, a consulting business, and an investment platform

Setting up the general ledger for an entity incorporated three weeks earlier

Reconciling intercompany balances across the group

Preparing audit working papers that go straight to an external auditor

Building an automation that removes a recurring manual task permanently

Sitting in on the accounting integration of a newly acquired business The expectation is high ownership. The close is yours, and it needs to be right.
