Financial Controller

3 days ago

Maroochydore, Queensland, Australia Private Advertiser Full time $90,000 - $120,000 per year

About the Company

Our client is an established Sunshine Coast business looking for a capable Financial Controller to take ownership of their finance function. You'll be part of a small, collaborative team that values initiative, clear communication, and a practical approach. If you enjoy variety, balance, and the satisfaction of seeing your work make a difference, this role offers both flexibility and purpose.

This opportunity suits someone who enjoys being hands-on with numbers, processes, and people—balancing accuracy with a practical approach to day-to-day operations.


The Opportunity

Working closely with the business leadership team, the Financial Controller will oversee the full financial rhythm across several related entities. The role involves managing reporting cycles, ensuring compliance obligations are met, keeping cashflow under control, and producing information that genuinely helps operational decisions.

This position is offered at around 30 hours per week, with flexibility to structure hours and days. A casual engagement option is also available.


Key Responsibilities

  • Prepare and maintain monthly management profit reports and summaries for senior stakeholders.
  • Support and track aged debtors, follow up discrepancies, and keep communication lines open with operations.
  • Oversee general accounting functions including billing, payroll inputs, accounts payable/receivable, and general ledger integrity.
  • Manage BAS preparation, compliance lodgements, and liaise with external accountants and the ATO when required.
  • Maintain cashflow forecasting, highlight risks, and support timely financial decisions.
  • Contribute to budget preparation and forecasting, ensuring accurate data flows and appropriate controls.
  • Identify opportunities for cost savings and process improvements to enhance overall efficiency.
  • Supervise a capable finance/administration assistant and assist with ad-hoc administrative projects where required.

About You

  • Proven experience in a similar finance or management accounting role, ideally across multiple entities or business units.
  • Excellent understanding of accounting fundamentals, BAS, and cashflow management.
  • Clear, proactive communicator who can translate financial data into meaningful insights.
  • Strong organisational ability, attention to detail, and comfort working both autonomously and collaboratively.
  • Formal accounting qualifications (Degree, CPA, CA) are welcomed but not essential—experienced bookkeepers or financial managers with the right capability are encouraged to apply.
  • Based on the Sunshine Coast with flexibility to attend the office part-time following initial onboarding.

Why This Role Stands Out

  • Flexible part-time structure or casual arrangement to suit your lifestyle.
  • Balanced hybrid model with the ability to work remotely half the time.
  • Supportive, outcomes-focused leadership that values initiative and clear communication.
  • Opportunity to influence systems and financial practices across a growing group of entities.
  • Genuine variety in the work—spanning reporting, compliance, forecasting and continuous improvement.

How to Apply

If you're a finance professional who enjoys bringing clarity to the numbers and building systems that make life easier for everyone around you, we'd love to hear from you.

Please submit your CV and a short cover letter outlining your relevant experience and availability.
