Canberra, ACT, Australia Elliott Gray Full time $120,000 - $140,000 per year

We're currently partnering with a high-performing finance team that's looking to bring on a confident, capable Finance Manager to step into a fluid, fast-paced role. This isn't a static position, it's designed for someone who can move across the business, adapt quickly, and bring leadership and clarity wherever they land.

One of the existing Finance Managers will be stepping away shortly, and we're seeking someone who can seamlessly take over their portfolio. From there, the role will evolve to supporting short-term vacancies across different areas, with a strong focus on budgeting, forecasting, and business partnering. It's a fantastic opportunity for someone who enjoys variety, thrives on challenge, and leads with both technical skill and emotional intelligence.

The environment is nuanced, and the ability to read a room is essential. We're looking for someone who understands organisational tone, communicates with sensitivity, and brings a steady, composed presence to every interaction. Leadership here isn't just about managing numbers, it's about guiding conversations, building trust, and influencing outcomes.

Candidates must be CPA or CA qualified, with solid experience in financial planning and analysis. TM1 experience is highly regarded, though we're open to professionals familiar with similar BI tools and the principles behind them. Whether your background is in commercial or government, what matters most is your ability to apply financial frameworks with confidence and clarity.

We're also recruiting for several other finance roles, including Deputy Finance Manager and Senior Finance Officer. If you feel your experience may be better aligned with one of these positions, we encourage you to apply directly via our website.
