The Opportunity
Bring your accounting expertise and leadership experience to a diverse role spanning Childcare and Property. As Group Finance Manager, you'll combine technical finance and compliance with HR administration and IT oversight, working closely with the Directors in a small, collaborative team. This is a hands-on role for a finance professional who thrives on variety, responsibility, and the opportunity to influence operations across multiple entities.
About Us
Based on St Georges Terrace in Perth, we are a small but successful group with interests in both childcare and property funds management. We provide high-quality childcare services that nurture children's growth and development, while also managing property investments with a focus on social infrastructure and long-term value creation. Our size means variety – every role is multi-faceted and hands-on – and our success comes from a close-knit team where each person makes a direct impact.
This role is offered as a 6-month parental leave cover contract, with flexible part-time (20-24hrs) working hours, offering the opportunity to balance career and lifestyle while taking ownership of a critical function in the Group.
The Role
As Group Finance Manager, you will lead the finance and administration functions across the Group. You will oversee the Accounts Officer in the processing of accounts payable, receivable, and payroll, while directly managing financial reporting, statutory lodgments and compliance, HR administration, and IT systems. This is a multi-faceted, hands-on role covering the end-to-end finance cycle and wider business operations. If you are a finance professional who thrives in a small team and values both autonomy and collaboration, this position offers the chance to work across industries and be central to the Group's success.
Key Responsibilities
- Oversee Accounts Officer in AP/AR and payroll processing.
- Manage cash flow, reconciliations, and end-of-month processes.
- Prepare BAS, IAS, PAYG, superannuation, and other statutory lodgments.
- Lead HR administration, including contracts, onboarding, and policies.
- Oversee IT systems and vendor relationships.
- Produce management and financial reports; liaise with external accountants/auditors.
- Drive process improvements across finance and administration.

- 5+ years' experience in a similar role (Finance Manager, Financial Controller, or equivalent).
- Proficient in Xero and Excel.
- Strong knowledge of finance, reporting, and statutory compliance requirements.
- Hands-on, organised, and comfortable managing across multiple entities.
- Excellent problem-solving and communication skills.
- Experience in childcare, property is desirable, but not essential.
