About Stanwell

Stanwell provides the spark for a bright future, and that future starts now. With our corporate office in Brisbane's CBD and sites in the South Burnett and Rockhampton regions, we are a supplier of energy solutions to Queensland, the National Electricity Market, and large energy users throughout Australia. With more than 3,000 MW of renewable generation projects and firming capacity under development, we have an extensive renewable energy pipeline, with a goal of 9 to 10 GW of renewable energy and between 3 and 3.5 GW of energy storage in place by 2035.

We care. We adapt. We deliver. These values are the driving force behind everything we do. And as we grow and deliver that pipeline of projects in the coming years, we will continue to serve our communities and deliver the power that Queensland needs.

About the role

This is a full time opportunity located in Brisbane CBD, with occasional travel required as it also supports Meandu Mine (near Kingaroy).

  • Lead and engage with divisional teams to formulate comprehensive financial plans, covering budgeting, forecasting, and scenario analysis.
  • Execute month-end accounting and reporting processes, update and oversee key operational drivers, ensuring accurate reconciliation.
  • Take the lead in consistently monitoring financial performance throughout the month, proactively identifying opportunities for optimisation and growth.
  • Effectively communicate financial insights and recommendations to Senior Management. Collaborate with team leaders and departments to ensure financial alignment with overall organisational objectives.
  • Provide guidance on appropriate accounting treatments for expenses, capital expenditures, and revenue.

About you

  • Experience in senior finance leadership roles within the energy industry or related sectors.
  • Strong communication and relationship-building skills, with the ability to influence and collaborate effectively.
  • In-depth knowledge of industry and trends, with a forward-thinking approach to finance.
