Finance Partner

Hello. We're Virgin Australia. We're the airline that's always done things a little different. Our way. The Virgin way. We're on a mission to make flying better than 'nice'. And to do that, it takes a team of talented people who are passionate about customer experience, doing the right thing always, with a focus on safety – in the air, on the ground and in our workplaces. A team who values real diversity and inclusion, in a big brand with big ambitions.

What you'll be doing:

As a Finance Partner, you'll play a pivotal role in driving commercial performance, strategic planning, and financial efficiency across our Commercial departments. You'll take ownership of key financial deliverables including the consolidation of monthly financial packs, while delivering deep, commercially focused analysis on revenue drivers, cost of sales, and operational metrics. Your insights will directly influence business decisions, helping to identify revenue opportunities, mitigate leakage, and optimise return on investment across channels and segments. You'll partner closely with the Department GMs, and colleagues across FP&A to deliver insights that shape business decisions and unlock value. This role is deeply embedded in a cross-functional environment, where your ability to build trusted relationships and influence outcomes is just as critical as your financial expertise. You'll co-develop business cases, build/review forecasts, identify risks and opportunities, improve business processes and support transformation initiatives, always with a focus on shared goals and collective impact

You'll also play a central role in the adoption and optimisation of new budgeting and planning tools, working alongside peers to enhance reporting capabilities and streamline processes. Your contributions will help elevate the team's analytical capabilities and foster a culture of continuous improvement. The Commercial portfolio spans diverse revenue streams and cost categories, offering exposure to high-impact areas and the opportunity to collaborate with teams across Revenue Management, Distribution, Sales, Marketing and Product & Customer Strategy. You'll be part of a dynamic, performance-driven environment where knowledge sharing, coaching, and mutual support are key to success.

This role offers a unique opportunity to deepen your understanding of commercial finance, contribute meaningfully across functions, and grow within a collaborative, performance-driven environment.
