At GHD, we don’t just believe in the power of commitment, we live and breathe it every day.

Together with our clients, we create lasting community benefit. Every day, our people bring curiosity, expertise and commitment to solving some of the world’s most complex infrastructure and environmental challenges.

Who are we looking for?

We’re looking for a strategic and influential Finance Leader to join our Queensland Regional Leadership Team.

This is more than a traditional finance leadership role. As Queensland’s Finance leader, you’ll help shape where the business is heading, not simply report where it has been. You’ll work alongside regional leaders to bring commercial insight, strategic thinking and constructive challenge to the decisions that drive performance, growth and long-term value.

As a trusted advisor and business leader, you’ll provide a forward-looking perspective across business planning, commercial strategy, major pursuits, pricing and investment decisions. You’ll help leaders navigate complexity, identify opportunities early and translate insight into meaningful action.

Beyond business performance, you’ll play a key role in building the next generation of Finance leaders, strengthening commercial capability across the region and creating greater capacity through technology, automation and smarter ways of working.

While focused on Queensland, this role also contributes to broader Australian and APAC Finance priorities, providing opportunities to influence beyond the region.

Working with an energetic and high-performing team, you will:

- Partner with the Queensland Regional Leadership Team to shape strategy, business planning and long-term growth.
- Provide forward-looking insight across profitability, pipeline, project performance, utilisation, forecasting and cash performance.
- Lead the Finance contribution to major pursuits,



pricing strategies, commercial negotiations and key business decisions.
- Influence leaders through trusted advice, commercial expertise and constructive challenge.
- Strengthen commercial and operational discipline across project health, billing, WIP, working capital and financial performance.
- Lead, coach and develop a high-performing Finance team while building the next generation of Finance leaders.
- Champion technology, automation and responsible AI adoption to improve capability, efficiency and decision-making.
- Contribute to Australian and APAC Finance leadership initiatives and enterprise priorities.

What you will bring to the team

- You are a trusted adviser who combines strong commercial judgement with the ability to influence, inspire and lead others.
- CPA or Chartered Accountant qualifications.
- Significant senior Finance leadership experience, ideally within a complex, project-based or skilled services environment.
- A demonstrated ability to influence senior leaders and translate financial insight into commercial outcomes.
- Experience in pricing, forecasting, project performance, commercial strategy and business partnering.
- Strong leadership capability with a track record of developing people and building future leaders.
- The confidence to navigate ambiguity, challenge constructively and bring clarity to complex decisions.
- Experience within engineering, infrastructure, construction,



professional services or project-based industries will be highly regarded.
