Finance Business Partner

**About Us**

At Sportsbet, we’re united behind our purpose to “Bring Excitement to Life” for our 2 million customers (and growing). We do this by over-delivering through our commitment to fun, challenging the status quo and living our values. As part of the Flutter Group, we’re a global player, but in Melbourne, Sydney and Darwin we’re a tight knit group of 1,300 teammates (of which over half are in our Tech and Data Science teams).

We are a significant contributor to the Australian economy through racing and sporting codes and we are committed to having a positive impact in society by supporting our customers, our communities and our employees. Our commitment to responsible gambling is genuine and demonstrated through the wide range of responsible gambling initiatives and tools.

In 2023, we were a recipient of LinkedIn’s Top 25 Companies for our focus on career development and awarded the Top 10 Workplaces for Women through Work180. Our commitment to making Sportsbet the best place to work is never-ending.

**About the Role**

In this Finance Business Partner role, you will support various business functions at Sportsbet by providing critical financial analysis, reporting, and forecasting. While you won't have a dedicated portfolio, you'll play an important part in supporting key stakeholders across the business, ensuring effective financial planning and performance management. You will assist with the consolidation of the annual budget, quarterly forecasts, and play a role in financial modelling for investment decisions.

You will have the opportunity to manage key tasks and processes, stepping in to cover for team members during leave or temporary absences. This is an excellent opportunity for a junior finance professional looking to gain hands-on experience in business partnering, financial reporting, and budgeting within a dynamic and fast-paced environment.

**Responsibilities include**:

- **Budgeting and Forecasting**: Support the preparation and management of departmental budgets and forecasts, providing insights and analysis to assist senior leaders in decision-making. You will also help consolidate the overall P&L and provide commentary on financial performance.
- **Business Partnering**: Collaborate regularly with business departments to communicate financial performance, flag risks and opportunities, and provide insights on budget management. You'll also support the leadership team with updates and business momentum presentations.
- **Reporting and Analysis**: Prepare and deliver high-quality commentary and analysis for regular reporting cycles, including weekly and monthly financial updates. You'll also support ad-hoc projects and help drive improvements in reporting processes.
- **Financial Modelling**: Assist with the development of financial models, including scenario and sensitivity analysis, to inform investment decisions and track business spend against budget.

This role is ideal for someone who thrives in a collaborative environment and is eager to develop their skills in financial analysis, business partnering, and strategic planning. You will gain exposure to senior leaders and have the opportunity to contribute to high-impact projects across the business.

**The Perks**

We work hard and play hard, so along with a competitive salary and generous performance-based bonus, here’s some of our other perks:

- 25 days annual leave (that’s right, a whole extra week)
- Genuine flexible working policy with a $800 work from home office allowance
- Weekly concierge service including free massages, manicure/nail appointments - all onsite
- Daily fresh fruit, free breakfast, sparkling water and Kombucha on tap in the office (did we mention we have a bar fridge for Thursday night drinks?)

**What’s the Green Tick Feeling?**

Well, it’s different for everyone, yet unites us all. It’s the feeling you get when you succeed, no matter what success looks like to you. It could be developing your career, it could working on an industry leading project, or it could be making it to school pick up in time. It's all the little and big things that make you feel like you’re thriving when working at Sportsbet.
