Boroondara, Australia Coles Group Full time

We've been trusted to serve Australian communities since 1914 and grown to become a top 30-listed company on the Australian Securities Exchange 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 Australian lives—you'll also get to see your impact.

About the Team

Our Financial Planning and Analysis 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.

We have a great opportunity for an experienced Financial Business Partner to join our Financial Planning and Analysis team. With a team of over 400, Coles offers large scope for personal development and career opportunities. Working with key business units, you will gain insight into how our business runs and be part of key strategic initiatives.

About the Role

The Financial Business Partner for our Financial Planning and Analysis team is a highly visible role, playing a key part in influencing, coaching and engaging across the Transport and wider finance teams to support decision making, business initiatives and financial management.

You'll also:

  • Engage with key stakeholders to understand business needs and proactively drive improved business insight and decision making through robust financial analysis and reporting for Coles Transport
  • Negotiate and influence outcomes by challenging appropriately using data to deliver the right outcome for the business
  • Ensure risks (financial and non-financial) are clearly articulated and addressed in decision making
  • Complete and review business plans, forecasts and reports for Coles Transport
  • Provide finance and administration support for creation, management and procurement of contracts within Coles transport
  • Prepare business cases and benefit reviews for new business initiatives to support continuous improvement
  • Partner with the stakeholders (finance and non-finance) to drive positive change and enhance information provided to senior stakeholders to support the transport agenda

About You and Your Skills

We are after a passionate and energetic Financial Business Partner with strong communication and stakeholder management skills. An ability to manage competing workloads and deliver the best outcomes for stakeholders is key to success in this role.

You'll also need:

  • Ideally CA, CPA or similar business qualification
  • Excellent interpersonal and communication skills, stakeholder management, change management, problem solving and influencing skills
  • Strong commercial and analytical skills to support understanding of key performance drivers, and raise recommendations on actions required to improve performance
  • Experience of working with both financial and non-financial stakeholders and ability to distil and effectively communicate complex information/problems to a broad range of audiences
  • Experience of financial KPIs across the P&L, balance sheet and cash flow

We're continuing to build a gender equitable team, and a culture that's just as diverse, inclusive and welcoming as the communities we serve. 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 disabilities. Find out more in the 'Our Recruitment Process' section of our careers site.
