Your opportunity: You're a commercially minded Finance Business Partner who wants to step into a role where Finance is genuinely part of the decision-making process.
Let's be upfront, this role involves travel.
But if you're someone who enjoys getting out of the office, likes having genuine access to the business, and values flexibility, autonomy, and a change of scenery, swapping Brisbane for Cairns for a week each month could make this a very different Finance opportunity for you.
You'll have genuine influence on what happens next, rather than simply explaining what happened last month.
You'll have access to the people running the business and work closely with the CEO, COO, operational leaders and Group Finance, providing the commercial insight they need to make better decisions and improve the way the business operates.
You'll use your commercial acumen and business partnering skills to challenge assumptions, build financial models, analyse investment decisions and help shape the performance of a $35m business within a larger, well-known organisation.
You'll spend one week each month in Cairns, working directly with the local leadership team with the remainder of your month based in Brisbane.
You'll also have 2-days WFH per week, parking onsite and flexible start/finish times.
Who you are: This is for you if you're a genuine Finance Business Partner with solid commercial acumen who enjoys understanding how a business works.
You will have exceptional communication and know how to ask the right questions, explain the 'how' and the 'why',



and be comfortable pushing back when needed; not for the sake of it, but because you understand the commercial drivers of a business and can influence the people making the decisions.
You will need strong financial modelling skills, and the ability to turn that analysis into something useful for the business.
