Who You’ll Work With
You will report to the Senior Finance Manager, a Big 4-trained finance leader with experience across mid-market businesses and a robust focus on financial analysis, systems, data and reporting architecture .
The Finance team is being developed around a simple principle:
Financial information should be structured, reliable, accessible and useful to the people running the business.
You are likely to enjoy this role if you are an analytical and systems-minded accountant who is curious about:
- how financial information is generated;
- how data flows through operational and finance systems;
- why reporting processes break down;
- how reporting can be made more useful;
- how finance can help operational teams understand their own performance;
- how technology can remove low-value manual work.
You do not need to be a Power BI developer.
What matters more is that you are comfortable with data, interested in systems and process improvement, and willing to develop those capabilities while bringing strong project accounting fundamentals.
A major part of this role is working directly with the people running the projects and service lines.
You will partner with Project Managers, operational leaders and other stakeholders to improve the way project and operational information is understood and used across the business.
The expectation is not that Finance simply prepares reports and sends them out. We want operational teams to increasingly take ownership of their own data, understand the financial consequences of their decisions, and use the reporting available to identify issues earlier.
About You
You are an analytical and commercially minded finance professional who combines strong accounting fundamentals with curiosity about the business.
You will bring:
- Demonstrated experience in project accounting, management accounting or a similar commercial finance role .
- Strong experience analysing project performance, budgets, forecasts, margins and actual results.
- Experience partnering with operational teams and explaining

As a company, we emphasise developing and building strong relationships with our partners and clients. Most importantly, we take pride in supporting our people.
About You
You’re an experienced financial accountant who knows the fundamentals inside out but is also excited about how AI and automation can change the way finance operates. You’ll bring strong technical accounting experience across financial reporting, treasury, compliance and month-end, along with the judgement to know when technology can improve a process and when human oversight needs to stay firmly in the loop.
You’re already genuinely using AI tools such as ChatGPT, Claude or Copilot in your day-to-day work and are interested in going beyond basic prompting to build smarter,
more efficient ways of working. Most importantly, you’re comfortable doing the work yourself. You understand that to effectively automate, review and improve a finance process, you first need to understand exactly how it should work.
About the Role
Join our National Shared Services Finance team as a Senior Financial Accountant, based at our Arundel Head Office on the Gold Coast. This is a finance role first.

- Preparing FBT, income tax provisions, Payment Times Reporting and TPAR
- Managing payroll tax and WorkCover allocations
- Owning balance sheet reconciliations and P&L; lines within your area and explaining variances prior to close
- Supporting the Financial Controller with year-end audit requirements and financial statements
- Providing backup support for NetSuite administration
- Leading and developing the AP Accountant and offshore AP team
- Identifying where AI and automation can genuinely improve finance workflows and where they don’t
- Building practical automations and agents that continue to deliver value after implementation
- Redesigning processes rather than simply using AI to complete the same work faster
- Reviewing and correcting AI-generated outputs using your own accounting knowledge and judgement
- Sharing what you build and helping the broader finance team adopt smarter ways of working
About you
- 5+ years’ financial accounting experience within a commercial or multi-entity group
- Strong working knowledge of Australian tax and compliance requirements, including GST, FBT, payroll tax and income tax effect accounting
- Demonstrated experience owning month-end close, treasury and cash flow forecasting
- Strong ERP and systems experience, with NetSuite highly regarded
- Strong capability working with spreadsheets, financial data and systems
- Genuine daily use of AI tools such as ChatGPT, Claude or Copilot beyond occasional experimentation
- Experience leading or mentoring AP or transactional finance staff, including offshore teams, will be highly regarded
- Experience documenting and rebuilding finance processes rather than simply inheriting established processes will also be highly regarded
What Buildsafe Can Offer You
- Permanent full-time position
- Competitive salary package
- Arundel Head Office location on the Gold Coast
- Professional car washes on site every fortnight
- Internal EAP through our Buildsafe staff care program
