Our Client
Our client is an established national organisation with a diverse operational footprint and a well-developed finance function. The business operates in a fast-paced, commercially focused environment and offers the scale and complexity of a larger organisation, while still providing individuals with the opportunity to take ownership, influence outcomes and make a visible impact.
About the Role
Reporting to the General Manager Finance, this is an excellent opportunity for an up-and-coming finance professional looking to take the next step into a Finance Manager position. The role combines strong technical accounting responsibilities with the day-to-day leadership of a small finance team. You will remain hands-on across month-end, financial reporting, audit, taxation and balance sheet management, while also taking responsibility for coaching, mentoring and developing the team.

Key Responsibilities
- Lead month-end and year-end close, including journals, reconciliations, management accounts and financial analysis
- Oversee the day-to-day activities of the finance team, providing technical guidance and setting priorities
- Coordinate statutory compliance including BAS, GST, FBT, payroll tax and external audit requirements
- Coach, mentor and develop team members while building accountability and capability
- Drive improvements across finance processes, reporting, systems and internal controls
About You
- CA or CPA qualified, or nearing completion
- Strong technical accounting background, ideally from a Senior Financial Accountant, emerging Finance Manager or similar role
- Demonstrated experience with month-end reporting, balance sheet reconciliations, audit and Australian taxation requirements
