Job Overview

We are exclusively partnering with our client on a unique, senior-level management opportunity within their Accounting and Tax division that stands out in the ANZ market right now.

Our client is a highly regarded global business management software provider supporting 60,000+ customers across sectors including hospitality, manufacturing, not-for-profit, construction and more. Within the Accounting and Tax division specifically, there are 8,000 customers already in play in ANZ, creating a significant embedded base for cross-sell, innovation, and commercial expansion.

What's particularly compelling is the level of investment. The business is investing heavily in developing current products, including Gen AI-powered capabilities, with the clear ambition of leapfrogging competitors in the region. This isn't incremental improvement – it's about redefining how accounting professionals work through intelligent automation, workflow optimisation, and data-driven insights.

Our client continues to gain market share through both strong organic growth and strategic acquisitions, and the Accounting and Tax portfolio is a key strategic pillar. This role will be highly visible and well-supported by senior leadership and the CEO – you'll have genuine backing to shape direction, influence investment decisions, and execute at scale.

Responsibilities

- You’ll define and communicate the product vision and strategy, owning the end‑to‑end lifecycle from ideation through to launch and optimisation.




- You’ll translate complex accounting workflows and regulatory requirements into intuitive, high‑impact product features.
- You’ll leverage deep customer research, competitive analysis, usage data, and industry trends to shape differentiated roadmaps.
- You’ll drive profitability through integrated solutions, pricing and packaging optimisation, and strong go‑to‑market collaboration with Sales and Marketing.
- You’ll manage and mentor a team of 11, elevating the product practice, fostering a culture of experimentation and customer‑centricity.

What Makes This Role Stand Out

- Scale and established market presence.
- Heavy investment in AI and innovation.
- Strong acquisition and organic growth momentum.
- Executive-level visibility and support.
- Clear opportunity to shape the future of accounting software in the region.

About the Role

It's a highly commercial, customer-facing, and cross-functional role – working closely with Engineering, UX, Customer Success and executive stakeholders in a dynamic, high-growth environment.

While the role is ANZ-based and focused primarily on regional execution, there's also exposure (circa 15%) to broader European and global growth strategy – giving you international influence without diluting your core mandate.

Who Should Apply

For someone with deep B2B SaaS experience, ideally within accounting, financial services or tax technology, and a track record of leading product teams through growth and transformation, this represents a rare opportunity.
