Finance Business Partner
- Support month-end close and financial reporting.
- Assist with budgeting and forecasting, linking credit trends with revenue.
- Oversee day-to-day credit operations alongside the National Credit Manager.
Role Overview
Reporting directly to the CFO, this Finance Business Partner role combines core finance and business partnering with oversight of the credit function. You'll support month-end, reporting, budgeting and forecasting, and give commercial insight that helps the business make better decisions.
Key Responsibilities
- Support month-end close, rebate management, financial reporting and sub-ledger reconciliations
- Prepare management reports, variance analysis and commentary for management meetings and commercial leadership
- Assist with budgeting and rolling forecasts, linking credit trends with revenue and margin projections
- Provide ad hoc financial analysis to support pricing, contract negotiations and commercial decisions
- Help the business improve profitability and deliver against its KPIs
- Oversee day-to-day credit operations alongside the National Credit Manager, including customer accounts, disputes, ageing and credit risk reviews
Why This Role Stands Out
- Global multinational with a world-class brand and real scope to build an international finance career
- Direct reporting line to the CFO, with exposure to regional finance leadership
- Newly created, broader role with a clear pathway into other finance roles over time
- Small, collaborative team where your work is visible and valued
- Attractive bonus scheme, additional employer superannuation and extra wellness leave
- Hybrid working (3 days office, 2 days from home), with a brand-new Melbourne office from December
Ideal Candidate
You're a qualified or near-qualified accountant with a strong grounding in month-end, reporting and forecasting, and you want to broaden into commercial business partnering. Credit experience isn't essential, as it's something you can learn here. You're a confident communicator who builds strong relationships with commercial teams and customers, and you can translate financial detail into clear, practical insight.
Key Requirements
- Bachelor's degree in Finance or Accounting
- CA/CPA qualified or currently completing
- 4+ years' experience in financial accounting, audit or commercial finance
- Audit or Big 4 background advantageous
- Advanced Excel skills; Microsoft Business Central experience a plus
- Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills
