About Us

National Intermodal is a Government Business Enterprise, wholly owned by the Commonwealth of Australia, building the intermodal precincts that will reshape how goods move along Australia's east coast. It's infrastructure with a purpose: better, more sustainable supply chains that ultimately improve the way communities access the things they need. Behind that mission is a tight-knit team of engineering, rail, infrastructure and logistics specialists who think long-term and execute with precision.

About The Role

National Intermodal is seeking a Senior Financial Modeller to join our Commercial team, based in our Sydney office. Reporting to the Chief Commercial Officer, you will develop and maintain the financial models that underpin business case development, feasibility assessments and major investment decisions across our intermodal precincts. This is a role for someone with genuine commercial acumen, not just a technical modeller, but an astute analyst who can assess commercial and financial data, and use that analysis to elevate decision-making across the business.

What You'll Be Doing

- Developing, maintaining and enhancing integrated financial models for major projects, capital investments, business cases and long-term planning activities, incorporating revenue, opex, capex, financing, cashflow, valuation, returns and sensitivity analysis.
- Preparing financial analysis to support project evaluation, investment decisions, funding submissions and business case development, including modelling cashflows, funding requirements, lifecycle costs and financial risk.
- Undertaking scenario modelling, sensitivity analysis and stress testing, and providing insight into affordability, value-for-money and commercial viability across a range of commercial scenarios.
- Partnering with Finance, Strategy, Delivery, Commercial and Procurement teams to validate assumptions,



interpret outputs and translate complex analysis into clear, practical insight for non-financial stakeholders.
- Preparing modelling outputs, summaries and decision-support materials for senior leadership, executives and Board reporting.
- Identifying opportunities to improve modelling methods, reporting processes and automation, bringing a continuous improvement mindset and a willingness to uplift capability across the finance function.

About You

- Tertiary qualification in Finance, Accounting, Commerce, Economics, Mathematics, Engineering or related discipline, with CA, CPA, CIMA or equivalent.
- Significant experience building and maintaining complex financial models in a corporate, infrastructure, project finance, investment, advisory or commercial environment.
- A commercially astute analyst, comfortable assessing and analysing various commercial scenarios and cost-to-go positions, with the judgement to identify what genuinely moves the needle for the business.
- Advanced Excel modelling capability, including integrated three-way models, scenario and sensitivity analysis, and model auditing.
- Robust understanding of financial statements, cashflow forecasting, valuation methods and investment metrics.
- Highly developed analytical and problem-solving skills, with exceptional attention to detail.
- Clear, confident communication style, with the ability to influence stakeholders and present complex analysis simply.
- Ability to leverage AI-enabled technologies to improve modelling efficiency, insight generation and decision support.
- Experience in infrastructure, logistics, construction, property, energy or other capital-intensive sectors is preferred.

At National Intermodal, we are committed to our people and their development. If this sounds like the kind of role where your analysis genuinely shapes the direction of the business, we'd love to hear from you.
