Geelong, Australia Barwon Water Full time

**Location**: Geelong
- ** Statuses**: Casual
- ** Duration**: 12 months

**About the Role**
- Help shape the future of finance in a transforming future focused organisation
- Community values-centric
- Flexible work and supportive working options

Are you a dynamic finance professional ready to be part of something bigger? Do you thrive in environments that embrace change, champion inclusion, and foster genuine flexibility? Join Barwon Water’s Finance team as we reimagine our function and build financial resilience for today and tomorrow.

This is more than a finance role - it’s a chance to be a catalyst in our ongoing transformation. As a trusted partner to your portfolio, you’ll play a pivotal role in delivering Strategy 2030, providing strategic oversight of budgets and forecasts, and enabling data-driven decision-making across the business.

You’ll work closely with senior leaders, including the Executive, to deliver key metrics, review and provide financial information, and give advice on financial matters as they arise. Your insights will shape both operational efficiency and long-term direction.

This role sits at the heart of our Finance transformation—where digital innovation, process uplift, and a reimagined business partnering model are underway. You’ll help embed new ways of working, support the rollout of enhanced systems, and contribute to a future-ready structure that’s demand-led and resilient.

This is a 12-month casual arrangement to cover a secondment and you will be payrolled through a third-party agency.

You’re a forward-thinking CPA who embraces change and seeks out opportunities to improve. You bring strategic thinking, strong communication skills, and a passion for collaboration. You’re energized by transformation and excited to contribute to a Finance function that’s evolving to meet future needs.

You’ll be comfortable presenting to senior leaders, and your previous experience in business partnering or similar roles, will be key to your success. You’ll thrive in a workplace that values your voice, supports your growth, and celebrates the enjoyment of work.
