Provide insight on revenue and cost trends across the business

Contribute to annual budgets and quarterly forecasts

Manage company credit cards through the expense management system

Use AI tools such as Claude, Copilot,



or ChatGPT to automate reconciliations, first draft reporting, and stakeholder correspondence, reviewing all output before it is used

Requirements

CA or CPA qualification is preferred, though strong candidates without it will still be considered

3 to 5 years in a financial or management accounting role

Robust Excel skills, including VLOOKUP, INDEX MATCH, and pivot tables

Experience with Power BI, SQL, or Power Query is well regarded

Practical experience using AI tools in a finance context is well regarded

Strong written communication skills, able to explain the story behind the numbers clearly

Available to work on site 5 days a week at Macquarie Park
