Melbourne, Victoria, Australia Adaptalift Group Pty Ltd Full time $120,000 - $180,000 per year

About Us:

At Adaptalift Investments (AALI), we're committed to making informed, strategic decisions that drive financial success and long-term business growth. As the investment and innovation arm of the broader Adaptalift Group, we manage a diverse portfolio of companies across property, technology, manufacturing partnerships, and materials handling.

We're a small but highly dynamic team working closely with our executive leaders and operational teams to identify opportunities, manage risk, and optimise performance across multiple entities. With a strong focus on technology and innovation, particularly through our involvement with Speedshield Technologies, we are shaping the future of our businesses through smart investment, strategic governance, and operational excellence.

Why Join Us:

  • Make a Real Impact - influence strategic decisions and drive performance across a growing portfolio
  • Diverse Exposure - work across multiple business entities, with a strong focus on innovation and technology
  • Collaborative Culture - join a small, high-performing team where your contributions are valued
  • Career Progression - step into a role designed to grow into a senior finance leadership position
  • Be Part of Something Bigger - play a key role in shaping the financial strategy of the Adaptalift Group's investment and innovation ecosystem

About the Role:

Reporting directly to the Executive Chairman, the Financial Controller will play a critical role in steering the financial direction of several businesses within the portfolio. You'll partner closely with leadership teams, providing strategic insights, governance, and commercial guidance, while also being hands-on with financial operations.

With a strong initial focus on supporting our technology and innovation business (Speedshield Technologies), the remainder of your attention will span our other AALI entities. You'll work on-site at our Hawthorn office five days a week, with occasional visits to other Melbourne facilities.

This is a role where you'll make a tangible impact: bringing structure, spotting risks and opportunities early, and supporting sustainable growth across our group of companies.

What You'll Be Doing:

  • Lead annual budgeting and forecasting across multiple business entities
  • Deliver insightful monthly, quarterly, and annual financial reporting to senior leadership
  • Partner with operational and executive teams to provide commercial modelling, financial analysis, and strategic recommendations
  • Monitor and improve cash flow, cost control, and operational efficiencies
  • Ensure compliance with statutory reporting, tax obligations, and accounting standards
  • Oversee month-end and year-end close processes including journals, accruals, and reconciliations
  • Support and mentor accounting staff while driving continuous improvement initiatives
  • Play a key role in strategic projects, including potential acquisitions and technology-led innovation
  • Liaise with external auditors, banks, and other stakeholders to ensure smooth financial governance

What We're Looking For:

  • A commercially minded finance professional with the technical expertise and leadership skills to navigate a fast-paced, multi-entity environment.
  • A problem-solver who spots trends before they become risks and supports growth through actionable insights.
  • CA or CPA qualification
  • Degree in Accounting, Commerce, or related field
  • At least 3+ years' experience in a similar Financial Controller, Finance Manager, or Senior Finance role
  • Experience in manufacturing or technology-driven environments highly regarded
  • Proven capability in financial modelling, analysis, and forecasting
  • Strong knowledge of Australian Accounting Standards and compliance
  • Exceptional attention to detail, analytical thinking, and stakeholder engagement skills
  • Proactive mindset with the ability to balance hands-on delivery with strategic input
