**Introduction**
Defence requires a professional, talented and motivated individual to fill a position at the Senior Executive Service Band 1 level in its Defence Finance Group.

This is an incredible opportunity to contribute across the Defence organization and lead the largest branch in the Group.

Central to your success, you will bring the ability to think strategically while operating at pace. You will have a demonstrated depth of experience in leadership, be known for your communication skills (written and verbal) and be a self-starter.

Defence highly values culture. To be a good organizational fit, you will exemplify the Defence Values and Behaviours, you will be self-aware, positive in considering and respecting a diversity of ideas and the perspectives of others.

Defence Finance Group (DFG) is looking for someone who takes a strong focus on how work is achieved, as well as what is achieved, and someone who can link work to organizational purpose (why work is achieved). In DFG we recognise the importance of a high quality culture that invests in team members, peers and the business.

As part of the Senior Leadership Group, you will play a key role in promoting and influencing a shared commitment to the strategic direction of Defence. You will:

- Lead and manage a Branch practicing inclusive leadership and collaboration;
- Demonstrate strong judgement and capitalise on innovative alternatives to resolve complex problems;
- Effectively challenge the status quo when required; and
- Demonstrate resilience and personal accountability for the quality of advice and delivery of results through engaging, collaborating and partnering.

**Your Role**
Defence is seeking an outstanding senior executive to lead the Financial Systems and Operations Branch in the Defence Finance Group. This branch has the largest complement of staff in the Group and requires a leader that is able to bring together complex issues and work across branches and divisions.

As Assistant Secretary for Financial Systems and Operations, you will be responsible for:

- Leading and executing the day-to-day accounting operations in the areas of accounts payable, accounts receivable, and treasury. You will provide a proven track record of ensuring efficient processing and timely payments to Defence members and industry partners located in Australia and overseas.
- Collaborating within Defence and DFG to ensure that financial systems capture complete and accurate data, and are supportive of business processes to provide the necessary financial information for Defence leaders and clients.
- Leading change management across your branch relating to the new Defence ERP system (SAP). This will result in the requirement to change manage a range of processes across the Financial Systems and Operations landscape over the coming year.
- Leading process simplification that is optimised for efficiency and is continually improved with Integrated Service Delivery.
- Extending self service capabilities and implementing intelligent automation tools to improve processes and augment service delivery.

To be successful you will be known as a self-starter that exemplifies the One Defence Leadership behaviours and be innovative, consultative, resilient and personally accountable for the quality of advice and the delivery of results. You will be highly self-aware, positive in considering and respecting a diversity of ideas and perspectives, and have the courage to challenge the status quo.
