Hello. We’re Virgin Australia. And we’re back (in a big way).

We’re the airline that’s always done things a little different. Our way. The Virgin way.

- Develop and maintain productive relationships with Finance team members, key front line customers (GCC, GR, Velocity, Vis etc), other internal stakeholders and service providers
- Establish and maintain an understanding of the requirements of internal customers so as to provide support, guidance and advice on Accounts related matters

**_What we're looking for:_**
- At least 2 years experience in leading a medium/large size team in a dynamic environment
- Aviation/ airline experience and knowledge - Exposure to and use of GDS / reservation system

We’re a winning team and we attract the best: challengers, innovators, and seriously fun individuals with big hearts. At Virgin Australia Group, we pride ourselves on recruiting the right people to join our team and help us rise to the challenges ahead. No matter our role - we are united by our ambition to be the most loved airline in Australia, and always go one step further for our customers, colleagues and our wider community.

**Virgin Australia Group**

Virgin Australia Group is now embarking on an exciting new chapter in the next stage of our journey. In September 2020, US private equity firm Bain Capital acquired Virgin Australia in a $3.5 billion deal. The airline has now re-launched as a mid-market carrier with a renewed focus on small and medium sized businesses, price-sensitive corporates, and premium leisure travellers and holiday makers.

Virgin Australia has been working on a plan to set itself up for future success. The Group has worked to ramp up flying, simplified its organisational structure, confirmed plans for new aircraft to renew and grow the fleet, and signalled deeper investment in technology and customer experience.

Virgin Australia Group prides itself on recruiting the right people to meet the challenges ahead. No matter their role - our employees share an enormous amount of passion for our guests and ambition to be the most loved airline in Australia.
