Job Description

All Roads Wholesale Fund is seeking a commercially minded Senior Executive to join the business in a broad hybrid leadership role spanning finance, private credit, investment, liquidity, risk and governance.

n

Our ideal candidate will bring experience across one or more of the following areas: Chief Financial Officer, Investment Management and Senior Credit Executive, with the commercial judgement and adaptability to operate effectively across all three.

n

This is not a conventional corporate CFO position. The role requires someone who understands accounting, financial management and liquidity, but who can also think like a lender.

n

All Roads operates within a privately owned, entrepreneurial small-business environment. The Managing Director has interests across a number of associated businesses, and our people work collaboratively across those businesses where their expertise is required.

n

While this is a senior executive appointment involving significant financial responsibility and multi-million-dollar transactions, we do not operate with the layers or narrowly defined functions of a large corporate environment.

n

We are looking for someone equally comfortable in the Boardroom and in the detail.

n

You may be assessing a significant lending transaction or presenting a recommendation to the Board one day, and investigating an inter-entity discrepancy, challenging a budget assumption or reviewing an unusual transaction the next.

n

We value people who take ownership of the outcome rather than the boundaries of a job description.

n

The Role

n

Working closely with the Managing Director, Board, Investment/Credit Committee, Responsible Managers, finance team and external advisers, your responsibilities will include:

n

n
- Overseeing financial reporting, budgeting, forecasting, performance analysis and Board reporting across the Fund and associated businesses.
n
- Managing cashflow, liquidity, funding commitments, capital deployment and cost of funds.
n
- Maintaining oversight of day-to-day financial records and ensuring financial information across the businesses is accurate, current and reliable.
n
- Reviewing underlying transactions and financial information to identify discrepancies, unusual movements, control weaknesses and emerging risk issues.
n
- Managing and reviewing inter-entity transactions and balances and providing reliable actual financial data for budgeting and forecasting.
n
- Assessing property-backed lending and development funding opportunities, including borrower capacity, serviceability, feasibility, valuations, LVRs, security, pricing, cost of funds and exit strategies.
n
- Evaluating the commercial merits and risks of proposed transactions and recommending appropriate conditions, mitigants and actions.
n




- Preparing and reviewing Credit Papers and acting as a central member of the Investment/Credit Committee in making recommendations to the Managing Director and Board.
n
- Coordinating due diligence, documentation and settlement with lawyers, valuers, Quantity Surveyors and other external advisers.
n
- Facilitating drawdown and payment authorisation processes and ensuring required approval and settlement conditions are satisfied before funds are released.
n
- Monitoring existing loans, including repayments, arrears, covenants, maturity, security, construction progress and emerging risks.
n
- Supporting wholesale investor and fundraising activities where required.
n
- Providing oversight of the Fund's AFSL, AML/CTF, compliance and risk management framework in conjunction with Responsible Managers and compliance personnel.
n
- Identifying financial, operational and risk-management flags early and ensuring matters are investigated, escalated and followed through to resolution.
n

A Hands-On Executive Role

n

The successful candidate must be capable of operating at both strategic and operational levels.

n

We are looking for someone with the experience and judgement to manage significant financial and investment responsibilities, but also the humility and flexibility to get into the underlying detail when required.

n

If a balance does not make sense, a transaction appears unusual or financial information cannot be relied upon, you will be willing and able to investigate the issue rather than simply delegate it.

n

You will understand that in a small business, seniority does not remove responsibility for the detail.

n

This role will suit someone who enjoys variety, autonomy and responsibility and who is prepared to roll up their sleeves when required to achieve the right outcome.

n

n
- Experience assessing property-backed lending or development funding transactions.

- Strong cashflow, liquidity, budgeting and forecasting capability.
n
- Experience preparing or reviewing Credit Committee, Investment Committee or Board papers.
n
- The ability to move from high-level financial reporting into transactional detail and identify discrepancies or emerging risks.
n
- Exposure to AFSL, wholesale funds management or regulated financial services environments would be highly regarded.
n
- Relevant tertiary qualifications in accounting, finance, commerce, economics, property or a related discipline.
n
- Advanced Xero & Microsoft 365 skills, together with strong systems aptitude.
n
- CA, CPA, CFA or equivalent professional qualifications would be highly regarded.
n

n

Just as importantly, you will have high emotional intelligence and strong people skills.

n

You will be able to read a situation and the people involved, understand the real issue behind an objection or competing position, and adapt your communication accordingly.

n

You will be comfortable having difficult conversations, challenging assumptions and negotiating a practical way forward while protecting the commercial interests of the business.

n

We are looking for someone who:

n

n
- Communicates confidently and builds trust quickly.
n
- Is dynamic, commercially minded and driven by results.
n
- Is low ego, collaborative and willing to assist wherever required.
n

- Can navigate objections and competing interests to reach a commercially sensible outcome.
n
- Remains calm and solutions-focused under pressure.
n
- Takes ownership and follows matters through to completion.
n
- Can move comfortably between detailed analysis and the broader commercial picture.
