Our client is a well-established, privately owned group, currently in the middle of the most ambitious growth chapter in its history.

Big decisions run on numbers, and the numbers run on models. That's where you come in.

They're rebuilding finance around up-to-date tools and AI from the ground up, and they need someone who thinks in numbers, not just records them.

Responsibilities:

You won't be buried in transactional work. You'll be the person building the models behind acquisitions, infrastructure investment cases, and contract profitability - with your work landing directly in front of the people making the calls.

- Owning financial models end to end - three-way models, project cash flows, sensitivity and scenario work, investment cases that can survive real scrutiny
- Putting AI to work properly - using it to build faster, test assumptions, write variance commentary, and clear out the repetitive stuff so you're spending your time on judgement, not data wrangling
- Keeping month-end sharp and accurate - journals, accruals, intercompany reconciliations, and reporting that actually explains what happened, not just what the numbers say
- Sitting with the business to turn what's actually happening operationally into numbers leadership can act on
- Finding smarter, more automated ways to run reporting and finance processes

You’ll need:

- A degree in Accounting, Finance,



Commerce or similar
- CPA/CA - completed or well on the way (support provided)
- A model you can genuinely walk someone through, including the decision it influenced
- Real AI fluency - not just casual use, ideally backed by a formal credential (or the willingness to get one, fully funded, early on)
- Strong Excel skills (Power Query, dynamic arrays)
- Experience with ERP systems such as Xero, MYOB, NetSuite or D365
- Power BI experience would be highly regarded

Whats on offer:

- Real ownership comes from day one, with your models actually being used to make decisions
- This role puts you at the table with the executive team, giving regular exposure to the decisions your work directly shapes
- The scope genuinely stretches beyond standard month-end reporting, pulling you into infrastructure, acquisitions, and contract profitability.
- Modern tools replace legacy systems here, with a finance function being built around AI and automation from the ground up.
- The team is genuinely invested in where you're headed, not just what you can already do.

If you're 3-6 years into your career and ready to move beyond traditional accounting, this could be the role for you. Commercially minded and genuinely curious, you're as comfortable in a conversation as you are behind a model.
