Company Information

Our client is a well-established and highly respected organisation based in Sydney Olympic Park. Known for its vibrant and collaborative culture, the business operates in a fast-paced environment and is currently navigating a period of transition. You'll be joining a close-knit team that values initiative, accountability, and strong communication.

This is an ideal opportunity for a finance professional who thrives on variety and enjoys being hands-on. The role is based onsite with free parking available and offers a unique chance to work closely with senior leadership in a visible and impactful role.

Responsibilities & Duties

Skills & Experience

The ideal candidate will be an experienced Finance Manager or Financial Controller who has held similar hands-on roles in dynamic environments. You will be CA or CPA qualified (or equivalent), with a strong grasp of technical accounting standards and reporting requirements.

You'll bring excellent interpersonal and communication skills, along with a proactive, hands-on approach and the ability to hit the ground running. This role would be well suited to someone currently in between roles and looking for a short-term assignment to stay engaged and add value. Immediate availability or a short notice period will be highly regarded.
