Management Accountant

164422
Accounting and Finance
Christchurch, Canterbury
April 23, 2026
  • Supportive team environment
  • Great mix of financial & commercial work
  • Lovely offices near the airport

If you’re looking for a role that blends month-end structure with genuine business partnering, this is a fantastic opportunity. Landpower is a well-established trans-Tasman organisation with a strong reputation. This position will give you the chance to support their New Zealand retail dealership network while being part of a collaborative Christchurch based finance team. On offer is a role with real variety, from preparing monthly accounts through to presenting and translating financial information into practical, easy-to-understand insights for operational teams.

The Role

As the Management Accountant, you’ll provide centralised finance support to the NZ retail entities. Month end accounting will be a key part of your role, but this isn’t a back-office position. You’ll also work closely with Branch Managers and Administration Managers, preparing results and commentary and providing analysis to support them to make sound commercial decisions.

Responsibilities will include:

  • Preparing monthly accounts, journals, and balance sheet reconciliations
  • Supporting the Finance Business Partner presenting P&L results and commentary to retail branches
  • Supporting budgeting and forecasting cycles
  • Ensuring the integrity of financial data across retail entities
  • Coordinating GST and FBT requirements
  • Reviewing CAPEX reporting vs budget
  • Building trusted relationships with branch leaders and administration teams
  • Identifying opportunities for process and systems improvement

This is a role with plenty of scope to grow your commercial capability, while still keeping your technical accounting skills sharp.

About You

You’ll bring a solid grounding in accounting, perhaps from a BAS or a commercial accounting role, and you’re ready for a position where you can take ownership and work closely with the business. You’ll enjoy the balance of month-end structure, with the business facing management accounting work that lets you build relationships across the organisation. An interest in the agri sector is a bonus, but absolutely not essential.

You’ll work across a suite of tools including the Pronto ERP system, Workday Adaptive for budgeting and reporting, and Power BI as the business continues to move towards deeper analysis.

 Why This Role

  • A genuinely varied mix of financial and management accounting
  • Supportive leaders and a collaborative team
  • Exposure across budgeting, forecasting, reporting and commercial analysis
  • Office based role in modern premises near Christchurch Airport
  • A business with strong values and long-standing industry presence
