About You

You’re an experienced Finance Manager or Financial Controller who knows your numbers inside out, but, just as importantly, you genuinely enjoy leading people.

You’re a warm, personable and encouraging leader who knows how to get the best from a capable team. You’ll set explicit expectations, provide direction and accountability, while also coaching, developing and bringing others along with you.

Technically, you’re razor sharp. You’ll bring extensive Australian taxation knowledge across FBT, payroll tax, GST/BAS and company tax, along with the confidence to take ownership of the compliance and reporting obligations that come with an organisation of this scale.

You’re commercially minded, analytical and exceptional when it comes to detail. You can juggle competing priorities, meet multiple strict global deadlines and stay calm when there’s plenty happening at once.

You’re also a confident communicator who can build meaningful relationships throughout the organisation, influence when needed and translate complex financial information into something everyone can understand.

Ideally CA/CPA qualified, you’ll have proven experience at Finance Manager or Financial Controller level and be ready to bring both the technical horsepower and leadership capability this position needs.

About the Role

This is where things get interesting.

As Finance Manager Australia, you’ll lead the finance operations function for the Australian entity, stepping into a newly created position at a time when there’s real momentum for change.

You’ll inherit a smart and established team who know their stuff. They don’t need someone to come in and reinvent the wheel. They need a leader who can provide direction,



challenge the way things have always been done and take them into the next stage of their journey.

You’ll own the integrity of the financial accounts and accounting records, oversee day-to-day operations and ensure the Australian entity meets its taxation, compliance and reporting requirements.

But this is about much more than keeping the numbers right. You’ll have the scope to enhance systems and processes, introduce fresh thinking and genuinely shape how the function operates moving forward.

If you’re the kind of Finance Manager who enjoys guiding talented people, finding better ways of working and leaving something better than you found it, there’s plenty here to get excited about.

It’s a genuine chance to join an organisation going through meaningful change and play an important part in what comes next. You’ll have the backing, scale and resources of an established international company, together with the scope to make an impact and help shape the local function.
