Finance Manager | Growing Fintech | 140-150k + Super

The Company

Join a pioneering fintech that is redefining the future of business payments.

This is not your typical finance role. Our client is a rapidly growing payments platform empowering Australian businesses to alleviate cash flow pressures and enabling them to grow on their own terms. By combining innovative financial structures with smart technology and seamless integrations into accounting platforms like Xero, MYOB and QuickBooks, they're setting new standards for how businesses manage cash flow.

At the heart of our business is an entrepreneurial founder and CEO with a strong track record of building successful ventures. Backed by leading investors and an ambitious growth strategy, the company is scaling fast, only scratching the surface of what's possible.

The Role

Our client is seeking a Finance Manager to take full ownership of the finance function. This is a standalone, autonomous role where you'll be trusted to shape strategy, deliver governance, and drive execution in equal measure. Reporting directly to the Founder and CEO, you'll act as a custodian of the business' financial health while embedding finance into the product, operations, and decision-making process.

• Financial Control - Build and implement frameworks to ensure consistent reporting, governance, and trust across the business.
• Reporting & Analytics - Define impactful reporting structures and leverage data to provide insights that scale with the business.
• Treasury - Manage liquidity and funding requirements through robust analysis, supporting strategic capital decisions.
• Leadership - Shape the finance function from the ground up, mentoring others as the business grows.
• BAU Finance - Oversee payroll, BAS, audits, accounts payable, and consolidated reporting with a focus on efficiency and accuracy.
• Stakeholder Engagement - Collaborate cross-functionally with product, technology, and leadership, and present insights to the board and investors.

About you

You're an experienced finance professional who thrives in dynamic, high-growth environments. With a strong technical foundation and a curious, data-driven mindset, you're equally comfortable in the detail of financial reporting as you are advising leadership on strategic decisions. Ideally you will be:

• CA/CPA qualified, with a degree in Finance, Commerce, Economics or similar.
• 7+ years' finance and accounting experience, ideally within fintech, financial services or a high-growth tech environment.
• Expertise in financial reporting, consolidation, and audits.
• Strong ability to work cross-functionally, particularly with product, engineering, and data.
• Proven capability to define frameworks and communicate them to senior stakeholders.

Why join?

• Be part of a high-growth fintech backed by an impressive founder and visionary leadership.
• Enjoy autonomy, ownership, and the opportunity to shape the finance function.
• Work at the intersection of finance, data, and technology, where your insights move quickly into action.
• Contribute to a mission that directly impacts thousands of Australian businesses by transforming how they manage cash flow.

This is a rare opportunity to make your mark in a business with momentum, where finance is at the core of innovation, not sitting in a silo.
