Job Description
About the Role:

n
Working closely with an experienced CFO, you will take ownership of the core financial accounting across a number of businesses and legal entities.
n
The remit is deliberately broad. You will be responsible for the integrity of the balance sheet, month-end reporting, statutory accounts, audit, compliance and controls, with significant analysis and business partnering with operational stakeholders.
n
The business has multiple entities and a high volume of work, creating an interesting layer of complexity around work in progress & revenue accounting.

n
Strong communication skills and the ability to work effectively with both finance and operational stakeholders
n
A practical attitude and willingness to get involved across the broader finance function when required
n
An interest in process improvement, systems and developing better ways of working
n
n
Experience within construction, civil, infrastructure, manufacturing, resources or another operational environment would be well regarded, although it is not essential.
n
On Offer:
n This opportunity will appeal to somebody who wants to build a career without having to move into a large corporate environment with increasingly narrow responsibilities.
n You will gain:
n
n
Genuine breadth across a circa $200m multi-entity group
n
Direct exposure to an experienced CFO and Commercial Finance Manager
n
A defined opportunity to grow your responsibilities as the business expands
n
Exposure to an upcoming systems change and ongoing process improvement
n
A practical, down-to-earth working environment where finance is valued by the wider business

n
Circa $130,000 + superannuation, with flexibility for the right person
