A well-established FMCG division is looking for a commercially minded Divisional Financial Controller to take a leading role in driving financial and operational performance across a significant part of the business.
This is not a traditional reporting role. You'll be at the heart of the operation — partnering with senior leaders, challenging performance, identifying opportunities and turning financial insight into action.
You'll lead a sizeable finance team across a multi-site environment while maintaining a strong connection to the commercial and operational drivers of the division.
Based in Brisbane, the role will involve regular travel to a key operational site.
The Prospect.
- Take ownership of the division's financial performance and provide clear visibility of results, risks and opportunities.
- Work alongside operational leadership to identify and deliver improvements in profitability, productivity and cost performance.
- Bring commercial rigour to major business decisions through robust analysis, modelling and financial insight.
- Lead and inspire a high-performing finance team operating across multiple locations.
- Build strong relationships with senior stakeholders and ensure finance is embedded in commercial decision-making.
- Play a key role in shaping divisional strategy, business improvement initiatives and future growth.
- What You Bring
- Senior finance leadership experience gained in FMCG or a complex consumer / services products environment.
- A strong commercial mindset with the ability to connect financial performance to operational outcomes.
- Strong commercial judgement, analytical capability and confidence operating at pace.
Why This Role?
This is a genuine opportunity to shape performance, influence strategy and make an impact within a well-established FMCG / services division.
You'll have the scale, team and senior stakeholder exposure to make a difference — with finance firmly positioned as a key driver of the business.
