This is far more than a traditional finance leadership role. As CFO, you will lead the transformation of finance across a group of related entities, driving improvements in systems, processes, reporting and capability. You will play a key role in optimising a significant asset base, strengthening financial stewardship, and ensuring capital is deployed to maximise mission impact.

n

Success in the role will require strong commercial acumen, transformation experience, and the ability to influence across a complex stakeholder environment.



Equally important is the ability to build trusted relationships and work collaboratively with a diverse group of leaders.

n

This is a unique opportunity to combine commercial leadership with genuine social impact.

n

Skills and Experience:

n

Commercially minded leader capable of driving meaningful transformation while building trust and credibility across the organisation.

n

A robust track record leading finance transformation and uplift across people, processes, and systems.

n

Strong stakeholder management skills, with the ability to influence across complex stakeholders.

n

Exceptional relationship-building capability and a collaborative, authentic leadership style.

n

A strategic mindset coupled with a willingness to remain hands‐on when required.

n

Resilience, pragmatism, and the ability to navigate ambiguity and competing priorities.

n

Grounded in a strong sense of purpose and the Christian faith.
