Roomstay (SaaS) and Dijitally (agency) operate across Australia, the UK, and Ireland with multi-entity, multi-currency finance operations. We are hiring a hands‑on Finance Manager to take full ownership of the finance function across both businesses.
This role is suited to a commercially minded accountant who can run finance operations end‑to‑end, improve structure, and provide clear financial insight to leadership. This is not a traditional finance role focused only on reporting — this role is responsible for bringing control, structure, and visibility to the entire finance function.

4. Cashflow & Forecasting
- Build and maintain rolling cashflow forecasts
- Provide visibility on expected inflows and outflows
- Highlight cash risks and constraints
- Forecast working capital requirements
5. Commercial Finance & Insight
- Act as a finance partner to the founder
- Identify client / project profitability
- Track SaaS revenue performance
- Highlight margin leakage and cost inefficiencies
- Provide proactive insight, not just reporting
6. Process & Control
- Design and implement structured finance processes across both businesses
- Improve efficiency and reduce manual work
- Ensure consistency across multi‑entity accounting and intercompany transactions
- Introduce clear ownership and accountability across finance activities
Finance Ownership & Operating Model
- Take full ownership of invoicing, payroll, and financial operations end‑to‑end
- Remove reliance on founder involvement in day‑to‑day finance processes
- Replace meeting‑driven workflows with structured, system‑led processes
- Establish clear ownership between account management and finance teams
- Ensure invoicing, collections, and payroll operate consistently without manual coordination
- Identify inefficiencies and redesign workflows to improve speed, accuracy, and control
Cross‑Team Workflow Ownership
- Own the interface between account management and finance
- Ensure revenue inputs from delivery teams are accurate, timely, and structured
- Remove reliance on meetings to validate invoicing inputs
- Implement clear, repeatable workflows for billing and revenue recognition
Skills and Experience
- Qualified accountant (CA / ACA / ACCA / CIMA or equivalent)
- 5+ years’ experience in Finance Manager / Financial Controller role
- Strong experience with Xero

Highly Desirable

- Experience managing offshore or outsourced finance support
- Familiarity with Airwallex, Wise, or FX platforms
