Commercial Management Accountant (023-1218)
Looking for Philippines-based candidates
Job Role: Management Accountant (Commercial)
Compensation range: $2,800 AUD - $3,500 AUD / Monthly
Engagement type: Independent Contractor Agreement
Work Schedule: This role is expected to align with the AU business hours (approx. 9 AM - 5 PM, Monday to Friday) for collaboration, but as a contractor, you’ll have flexibility in how you manage your time.
Who We Are: At Hunt St , we help Australian companies hire top remote talent in the Philippines. For this role, you will be engaged directly by the client as an independent contractor. We are not an outsourcing agency. All of our roles are 100% remote so you'll be able to work from home.
Who The Client Is: We operate within the financial advisory and business consulting space, helping small and medium-sized businesses improve financial performance and achieve sustainable growth. We provide practical financial guidance across areas such as cash management, financial reporting, profitability, revenue modelling, strategic planning, and business systems.

Role Overview: We are seeking an experienced Commercial Management Accountant to join our growing CFO and advisory team supporting Australian SMEs.
The Commercial Management Accountant must have a practical working knowledge of the Australian tax environment.
This is not a tax-agent or tax-compliance position, and the successful candidate will not be expected to provide tax advice outside their professional authority.
However, commercial and CFO recommendations frequently have potential tax consequences. The successful candidate therefore needs sufficient Australian tax knowledge to recognise these implications, incorporate them appropriately into their commercial thinking, and identify when specialist tax advice should be obtained before a strategy is recommended or implemented.
The objective is not to replace the client's tax accountant. It is to ensure that our commercial recommendations are developed with appropriate awareness of the Australian tax environment.
The successful candidate will work across management reporting, budgeting and forecasting, cash flow, profitability, financial modelling, dashboard reporting and commercial analysis.
Most importantly, they will be expected to move beyond preparing numbers to understanding:
- What do the numbers mean?
- Why is this happening?
- What information are we missing?
- What should we investigate?
- What could the business do differently?
- What decision does the business owner need to make next?
Our CFO service sits in the space between traditional bookkeeping/accounting and an internal senior finance function.
We help growing SMEs build the financial capability they need as they become larger and more sophisticated — until they ultimately have the capability and scale to build their own internal finance leadership.
Our philosophy is High Tech + High Touch.
We use technology, AI, automation, systems and repeatable methodologies to remove unnecessary manual work while preserving the human elements that create the greatest value: commercial thinking, challenge, education, relationships and decision support.
We believe strongly in education and knowledge transfer.
Our goal is not to make clients permanently dependent upon us. We help business owners and their finance teams understand their numbers and progressively develop stronger internal financial capability.
The Commercial Management Accountant will therefore be both a commercial problem solver and an educator.
Key Responsibilities:
The Commercial Management Accountant will work as part of a collaborative CF
