JOB DESCRIPTION

We've been trusted to serve Aussie communities since 1914 and grown to become a top 30-listed on the ASX with 120,000 team members and a portfolio of iconic brands. At Coles Group, you'll not only get to make a difference to millions of Aussie lives—you'll also get to see your impact.

About the Team

Finance makes it easier for us to win together as a business. Our team works side-by-side with every other team to help bring commercial thinking into what they do and make moves that support our strategic business decisions.

Our Automated Distribution Centre (ADC) located in Redbank uses world-class technology to modernise our Supply Chain. Epic in scale and design, our new facility represents the future of logistics. This is a fantastic opportunity to join the Coles Finance team and work closely within Supply Chain & Logistics to empower our retail teams across the country.

As Finance Business Partner, you will provide support to our Commercial Managers in delivering quality business partnering to the Redbank and Kemps Creek Automated Distribution Centres (ADC's). The breadth of support will include all aspects of the finance, accounting, and commercial functions, including reporting, budgeting, and analysis in accordance with Coles Commercial framework and accounting standards.

You'll also:

  • Partner with key operational stakeholders to develop a deep understanding of business processes
  • Work closely with and influence the operations team and other key stakeholders to monitor & manage performance against budgets/targets
  • Develop robust reporting and analysis, turning operational metrics into financial results
  • Produce daily, weekly and monthly financial reporting to allow the site/s to drive performance
  • Develop financial plans and forecasts, offering guidance on future initiatives
  • Identify key drivers of cost and opportunities for business improvement, and support all business improvement initiatives by providing commercial thought leadership and ensuring benefits are accurately tracked and reported
  • Deliver insightful & objective analysis and commercial recommendations to ADC Management Team as required


About You and Your Skills

Our ideal candidate will have previous experience presenting financial information in a clear and concise way, aiding operational and non-financial stakeholders in understanding the insights learned and key drivers of performance.

You'll also need:

  • Varied finance background covering financial control, financial reporting, planning & analysis, and business partnering
  • Tertiary qualification in Accounting or Finance
  • Advanced analytical and problem-solving skills in order to identify business opportunities/challenges and recommend course of action
  • Demonstrated experience streamlining reporting processes and improving data visualisation

Not essential, but desirable:

  • Experience in logistics, an automated distribution facility or manufacturing environment
  • Continuous Improvement/Lean Six-Sigma Training & experience

Take your next step into something bigger, apply now

With us it's not about the discounts (although you do get those), it's about joining a team where your wellbeing and professional development is our investment and celebrating your contributions is the norm. And because everyone leads unique lives, we offer flexible work, additional leave and parental leave entitlements.

We're continuing to build a gender equitable team, and a culture that is just as diverse, inclusive and welcoming as the communities we serve. We are committed to creating a workplace that is safe and respectful for our team. We encourage applications from people of all ages, cultures (including Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples), abilities, sexual orientation and gender identities.

We're happy to adjust our recruitment process to support candidates with disability. For further information and additional contact details visit the 'Our Recruitment Process' section of our careers site or email
