The Opportunity

An exciting opportunity has arisen for an experienced Financial Controller to join a well established Australian consumer goods and retail business embarking on a significant growth journey.

Reporting directly to the CFO as the Finance 2IC, this role will play a critical part in strengthening the finance function, embedding robust controls and governance frameworks, and helping prepare the business for its next phase of expansion.

This is not simply a "steady-state" Financial Controller position. The successful candidate will join a business that is investing in growth and requires a hands on leader who can build capability, improve processes and drive financial discipline while supporting a fast paced and entrepreneurial operating environment.

Key Responsibilities

  • Lead all financial control, compliance and governance activities
  • Oversee month end, year end and audit processes
  • Manage treasury, cash flow forecasting and working capital outcomes
  • Drive balance sheet integrity and financial reporting accuracy
  • Strengthen internal controls, policies and finance processes
  • Lead and develop the transactional finance team
  • Partner with operational stakeholders across the business
  • Support system, reporting and process improvement initiatives
  • Contribute to strategic projects and business growth initiatives

About You

You are a commercially aware Financial Controller who enjoys operating in dynamic and evolving businesses. Comfortable rolling up your sleeves, you have the ability to balance strong technical capability with a practical, solutions focused approach.

You will ideally possess:

  • CA or CPA qualification
  • Proven Financial Controller or Senior Finance Manager experience
  • Experience within retail, FMCG, consumer products or related industries
  • Strong financial reporting, controls, governance and treasury capability
  • Demonstrated success improving processes and building finance functions
  • Strong people leadership skills and experience developing finance teams
  • The ability to influence stakeholders and operate effectively in a growing business environment
  • A proactive, adaptable mindset and willingness to drive positive change

What's on Offer

  • Opportunity to work closely with an experienced CFO and executive leadership team
  • Key leadership role within a growing consumer focused business
  • Significant scope to influence systems, processes and finance operations
  • Broad role offering a mix of financial control, leadership and transformation
  • Competitive salary package of between $160,000-190,000 plus super depending on experience
