The Company is seeking an experienced Head of Finance to take on a senior leadership role with a focus on financial control and finance operations. The successful candidate will be responsible for leading a large team across various functions, including accounting, accounts payable, banking, and payroll. This role demands a hands-on approach, with the Head of Finance expected to provide strong technical accounting leadership, ensure the integrity of the financial control environment, and keep the finance operation running effectively, particularly during a busy period.
Key responsibilities include:
- Managing statutory, tax, and regulatory compliance
- Overseeing risk, governance, and compliance requirements
- Supporting external audits
The role also involves working closely with senior stakeholders and requires the ability to identify and address issues promptly. Applicants should have a significant background in a similar role, with a strong technical accounting foundation, ideally starting their career in a Big 4 environment. ASX-listed experience is critical, and a background in a large, complex retail or FMCG environment is highly valued.
The role requires a candidate with a CA/CPA qualification, a proven track record of leading sizeable finance teams, and the confidence to engage with senior stakeholders while remaining hands-on. A pragmatic approach and a willingness to be actively involved in the team's work are essential. The company is open to both full-time and part-time arrangements and is particularly interested in candidates who are available to start immediately or at short notice.
