  • Partner with the CEO and function leads to translate numbers into commercial stories and opportunities.
  • Oversee financial operations including AP/AR, processes and systems (we use Xero).
  • Manage cash flow, controls and governance across all business units.
  • Support new initiatives, from studios to product launches, with commercial and financial input.
  • Continuously improve processes and identify automation opportunities that make our systems smarter and faster.

What you'll bring

  • 5+ years' experience in finance, accounting or financial management.
  • Strong technical expertise in financial reporting, budgeting and forecasting.
  • Proven experience in FMCG with experience using an inventory management system.
  • Experience with subscriptions or a consumer facing bysiness is a bonus.
  • Advanced Excel or Google Sheets skills and proficiency in Xero (or similar).
  • A sharp analytical mind with the ability to translate data into actionable insights.
  • Strong communication skills that help simplify complex financials into clear and human language.
  • A proactive, detail-oriented approach and the ability to thrive in a lean, collaborative team.

Why Kic?

You'll join a small but mighty team working to redefine what wellness looks like in Australia and beyond. We move fast, we back each other, and we believe in creating an environment where everyone feels connected, trusted and inspired to do their best work.

We offer:

  • 12 weeks parental leave with superannuation paid for 12 months
  • Paid miscarriage leave
  • Quarterly team events
  • A hybrid working model of 2 days in our South Yarra office and 3 days from home
