  • Ensure compliance with relevant employment awards, tax obligations, and superannuation requirements.
  • Contribute to the preparation of budgets, forecasts, and Board reporting.
  • Supervise and mentor junior finance staff.
  • Drive process improvements and strengthen internal controls.

  • Strong leadership skills with experience mentoring finance staff.
  • High attention to detail, with excellent communication and organisational skills.
  • A collaborative mindset and ability to work effectively with diverse stakeholders.
  • Demonstrated cultural competence and respect when working with Aboriginal people and communities.

Experience in not-for-profit organisations or Aboriginal Corporations will be highly regarded.

What We Offer
  • An opportunity to contribute to meaningful outcomes for the Banjima People.
  • A fun and collaborative team environment.
  • Competitive salary and benefits - including salary sacrificing benefits.
