Preparing financial analysis, forecasts, budgets and performance insights for business leaders
Partnering with operational managers to support commercial decision-making
Overseeing payroll, accounts payable and accounts receivable functions
Managing balance sheet reconciliations, financial controls and reporting accuracy
Coaching, mentoring and developing finance team members




Identifying and implementing process improvements to enhance efficiency and reporting capability
Supporting the CCO with board reporting, budgeting and strategic financial initiatives
Liaising with external accountants, auditors and key stakeholders
What We're Looking For

You will bring:
Experience in accounting, finance or management accounting roles
Previous experience leading, coaching or supervising team members
Robust management accounting and financial reporting experience
Exposure to payroll, accounts payable and accounts receivable functions
Experience preparing budgets, forecasts and financial analysis
A track record of improving systems, processes and efficiencies
Strong communication skills with the ability to build relationships across the business
Experience in a commercial business environment (highly regarded)
CPA or CA qualification, or progress towards qualification, is welcomed but not essential
Why Strike Force Services?
Be part of a growing and diversified business
Report directly to the Chief Commercial Officer and contribute to strategic decision-making
Lead and develop a dedicated finance team
Genuine opportunity to influence systems, processes and business performance
Collaborative and supportive leadership team
Flexible work arrangements, including work-from-home opportunities
