Finance Manager

Why you should apply

This is the ideal role for you if you're a Finance Manager who likes being close to the numbers, leading a team, and having genuine access to senior decision-makers, as well being a driving force for culture and collaboration.

You'll take ownership of the financial accounting function within a successful Australian business with around $100m in revenue that is entering its next stage of significant growth. You'll be supported throughout by an experienced CFO who is keen to share their knowledge and someone who drives a positive team environment.

You're joining a business that has already done a lot of the hard work. They've invested heavily in infrastructure, built a modern operation and created a platform for further growth, and they need a Finance Manager who can help take that next step.

It's entrepreneurial enough that your work will matter but established enough that you're not walking into chaos and being asked to fix everything yourself.
Because it's founder-led, you won't be dealing with layers of corporate bureaucracy. If something needs fixing, you can have the conversation and do something about it.

That's a pretty good combination for an experienced Finance Manager: scale, growth, access, autonomy, and people who want you to succeed.

There's flexibility around start and finish times, and parking nearby.

What you'll be doing

You'll lead a team of five across Accounts Payable and Accounts Receivable, while overseeing the end-to-end financial accounting function. You'll be responsible for the quality of the numbers, month-end, compliance, and the day-to-day running of the team.

• Lead and develop a team of 3 AR and 2 AP staff
• Own the end-to-end financial accounting function
• Manage month-end close and balance sheet reconciliations
• Prepare monthly BAS and manage FBT
• Act as the key contact for external auditors and accountants
• Support the FP&A Manager with budgeting and planning
• Review and improve existing processes
• Work closely with senior stakeholders across the business
• Get into the detail when something needs attention
• Make sure the finance function continues to support the growth of the business

About you

You'll already be an experienced Finance Manager, Financial Controller or similar, with a strong financial accounting background and proven experience leading a team.

CA/CPA qualified is required, along with strong month-end and financial reporting experience.

More importantly, you understand accounting properly. You know AP, AR, debits, credits, reconciliations and how these flow through into the wider financial accounts.

• CA / CPA qualified
• Team management experience
• Strong Excel experience
• Business Partner who drives culture and collaboration
• Comfortable picking up the phone and speaking with customers when something needs sorting

Interview process:

Friday 25th September from 7am to 11am in RH office CBD
