At least 5 years in technical accounting, statutory reporting or audit-focused roles
Solid grounding in Australian Accounting Standards, consolidations and internal controls
A confident communicator who's just as comfortable with auditors as with operational stakeholders

What's on offer:
A business that backs its people and genuinely lives its values day to day
Broad exposure - Group reporting, M&A; activity and joint venture structures all in the mix
A supportive CFO and finance team, with scope to grow into wider group responsibilities
