ROLE LOCATED IN PORT MACQUARIE NSW

Are you a strategic thinker with strong financial leadership skills?

Do you want to work with purpose, flexibility, and autonomy — without the burden of managing a team?

Werin Aboriginal Corporation Medical Centre is on the lookout for a talented and values-aligned Chief Financial Officer (CFO) to oversee and drive financial operations that directly support culturally safe and community-focused healthcare delivery.

This role is ideal for someone seeking senior-level responsibility with real strategic influence, without direct reports — and offers a hybrid working arrangement tailored to your needs.

Lead budgeting, forecasting, compliance and cashflow management

Provide expert strategic and financial advice to the CEO and leadership team

Manage funding agreement oversight and statutory reporting

Ensure financial sustainability and performance across the organisation

Contribute to organisational strategy and financial literacy across teams

Work closely with external auditors and maintain relationships with funders

No two days will be the same — your insight will help shape the financial direction of one of the region’s most respected Aboriginal Community Controlled Health Organisations.

What’s in it for You?:

$125,000–$130,000 base salary (negotiable)

Full salary packaging available, including novated leasing

Flexible hybrid working arrangement — work from home + onsite

No direct reports — focus on strategic impact, not line management

Work closely with an inclusive, collaborative and purpose-driven CEO

Be part of a team creating real outcomes for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities

About You:

We’re looking for a mid-senior level professional who is:

CPA/CA qualified or has equivalent experience

Experienced in managing finances across small to medium multifaceted organisations

A strong communicator, collaborator, and strategic thinker

Well-versed in compliance, budgeting, forecasting and risk

Able to navigate funding agreements, audits, and legislative frameworks

Passionate about working in a values-driven and community-minded setting

Experience in health or NFP sectors is highly regarded but not essential.

Based in Port Macquarie, with hybrid/flexible work options available. A great lifestyle opportunity in a coastal community that values balance and wellbeing.

This is your chance to contribute your financial expertise to a community organisation where your skills will directly support better health outcomes.
