At Taste Food Distributors, our core focus is
connecting people through world foods
. From our Sydney base in Botany, we import and build culturally iconic food brands that bring people closer to the tastes and memories of home — wherever home may be.
We're evolving from a change-making distributor to a true
brand builder of iconic world foods
. Our purpose is deeply rooted in celebrating community through food, and our culture is driven by three core values; Move Quick, Learn More and Be Real. We are a team with momentum, on a mission to scale sustainably, and we're looking for a like-minded finance leader to help shape our next chapter.
Position Overview
We're hiring a commercially astute and operationally sharp
Financial Controller
to step into a high-impact, hands-on role, replacing our outgoing Head of Finance. This is a
minimum 3-day per week
role with flexibility.

Cash Flow & Trade Finance
Manage cash flow planning and execution, ensuring liquidity to support operations and capital investment. Work closely with banking partners to optimise trade finance and working capital facilities.
Financial Oversight
Lead the finance function, including oversight of accounts payable/receivable, payroll, and offshore bookkeeping. Maintain rigorous internal controls, month-end procedures, and accounting accuracy.
Inventory & Systems Management
Ensure inventory accounting is robust and reconciled (Cin7 experience preferred). Drive process integrity across financial systems and lead initiatives for system improvements and automation.
FX Management
Execute and monitor the company's FX hedging strategy to manage exposure across EUR, GBP, and USD — ensuring cost-effective and timely supplier payments.
Compliance & Statutory Reporting
Ensure full compliance with all legal, tax, and financial reporting obligations. Liaise with external accountants to prepare accurate quarterly and annual accounts.
Qualifications & Experience
- CPA or CA qualified
- 5–10+ years in senior financial roles, ideally in FMCG, wholesale, or import/distribution
- Proven inventory accounting and reconciliation experience (Cin7 or similar)
- Strong commercial acumen and experience with financial modelling and scenario planning
