About the role

This is an exciting opportunity for a motivated and forward thinking finance professional to join TAFE Gippsland as a Financial Reporting and Analysis Accountant. Reporting directly to the Manager of Financial Planning, Reporting and Analysis, this role offers more than the delivery of financial services, it provides a platform for ongoing development, growth, and progression into higher-level responsibilities over time.

You'll partner with business units to support decision making, manage financial risks, and contribute to financial reporting, project reporting, budgeting and forecasting. The role also supports system and process improvements, with a strong focus on efficiency and data integrity.

This is a great opportunity for someone looking to grow their career in finance. The successful applicant will be supported to take on increasing responsibility over time, contribute to strategic initiatives, and develop leadership capability within a collaborative and values-driven team.

About you

You are a detail oriented and proactive finance professional with a strong foundation in accounting and a passion for continuous improvement. You have a solid understanding of accounting standards, financial reporting, and budgeting processes. Your strong analytical skills allow you to interpret financial data, identify risks, and provide clear, actionable insights to support decision making.

Confident using financial systems and navigating complex data, you are always looking for ways to improve processes and enhance reporting accuracy. You communicate effectively with stakeholders at all levels and thrive in a team environment that values integrity, excellence, and service.

Most importantly, you're ready to grow. You're looking for a role where you can expand your skills, take on greater responsibility, and contribute to both operational and strategic outcomes as part of a dynamic and supportive team.
