Flexibility that genuinely works for you

We understand that experienced finance professionals may be looking for more flexibility than a traditional full‑time office‑based role.

For the right person, we are extremely flexible about how this role is structured. You may choose to work from the office, from home, or a combination of both. We are also open to full‑time, part‑time or adaptable/casual working hours depending on your circumstances and what works for both you and the business.

You will be supported by an existing accounting team responsible for the day‑to‑day finance functions, allowing you to focus on financial leadership, reporting, commercial analysis and helping management make better business decisions.

We are more interested in finding the right person and achieving the right outcomes than prescribing where or when you work.
