FOR 50+ YEARS, CARE HAS BEEN KEPT CLOSE TO HOME. NOW FINANCE IS COMING HOME TOO.
- For more than 50 years, this family-owned aged care organisation has built its reputation around something quite simple: care is personal.
- Relationships matter. People know each other. And that sense of family remains at the heart of how the organisation operates.
- Now, an important part of the business is coming closer to home too.
- After around 30 years of outsourced accounting, the organisation is creating its inaugural Financial Accountant position – bringing financial leadership in-house at an exciting point in its evolution.
- This isn't about stepping into somebody else's role.
- It's yours to establish.
WHAT'S THE OPPORTUNITY?
- You'll take end-to-end ownership of the financial function, working with an established accounts team and closely with the CEO, owners and Board.
- There's plenty happening.
- The organisation is transitioning from MYOB to Inerva and preparing for an approximately $40 million development pipeline, including a new 55-bed residential aged care service.
- Part-time (4 days a week) will be considered, otherwise this is a full-time opportunity.
- You'll pick up the good groundwork already done, bed down the new system, strengthen processes and become the person people trust to explain not only what the numbers are – but what they're telling us.
Your remit includes
- Monthly, quarterly and annual financial reporting
- Budgeting, forecasting and management reporting
- QFR, aged care funding and compliance
- Taxation, financial controls and governance
- Board reporting and presenting financial information
- Audit and external adviser relationships
- Supporting and guiding the existing accounts team
- Financial input into refurbishment and future development.
AND YOU ARE…?
- Technically strong, certainly. But that's only part of this appointment.
- We're looking for a seasoned aged care finance professional who understands that patience,
relationships and communication matter too.
- You're steady, curious and commercially minded. You listen. You don't become frustrated by another question. And you're happy to get into the detail while also seeing the bigger picture.
You'll bring
- CA or CPA qualification
- Aged care financial accounting experience – essential
- 3+ years' strong financial accounting experience
- Taxation knowledge and commercial judgement
- Knowledge of aged care funding, reporting and compliance
- Confidence presenting to and working with senior leaders and Boards
- Strong communication, judgement and attention to detail.
- You may currently be a Finance Manager, Senior Financial Accountant or Financial Accountant ready for greater ownership.
WHY MAKE THE MOVE?
- Because you won't be one accountant among many.
- You'll become the organisation's internal financial lead, with the opportunity to establish how the function operates and influence what comes next.
- You'll join a reliable, family-owned organisation entering a significant period of growth.
- And the practicalities stack up too: $160K + super, hybrid working of approximately three days onsite, flexible core hours and South-West Sydney location.
- Because in an organisation where care has always been personal, good financial stewardship is another form of care.
- Care for the detail. Care for the future. And care for the people depending on both.
CURIOUS?
- If you're ready to bring your aged care finance experience somewhere you can genuinely put your stamp on the function, we'd love to hear from you.
