• Shape a finance function with robust foundations already in place
• Coach and develop a committed team into its next stage
• Partner with the CEO and Board on SYC’s growth and impact agenda
SYC is a multi-service organisation delivering employment, education, housing and social services across Australia. With more than 65 years of impact, SYC supports Australians to create a life without disadvantage, build sustainable independence and experience wellbeing in all areas of their lives. With an established national presence, longstanding government relationships and a diverse service portfolio, SYC is strengthening its operating model to support organisational performance, sustainability and future growth.
Reporting to the Chief Executive Officer, the CFO will provide enterprise leadership across finance, IT, risk and property as a key member of the Executive Team.
SYC already has quality systems and a stable, committed finance team. The role is to shape what is in place, not to build it from scratch: set the bar, connect finance to the strategy,
and put the needs of the business at the centre of what finance delivers.
We are seeking an experienced CFO who:
- has seen what good looks like, having worked in a larger or higher-performing finance function
- coaches first: is technically strong, but whose instinct is to teach, show and empower the team
- has built business partnering and FP&A; capability from the CFO seat, and is credible with the executive and the Board
- wants to lift a capable function to a high-performing one, improving delivery into the business
You will be motivated by a profit-for-purpose environment and the chance to see your work show up in the communities SYC serves.
Applications should be forwarded to the attention of Chief People Officer, Kia Logan, enquiries are welcome on 0449 076 377.
Shape SYC’s finance function and develop a committed team, building sustainable growth and organisational capacity to deliver enduring community impact.
