About the role

We’re looking for a motivated finance professional to join our Finance Operations team, working closely with the Senior Finance Manager. In this role, you’ll be part of a collaborative and supportive team that takes care of the operational finance needs for our Direct and Intermediate businesses, including Accounts Payable and Credit Control.

This is a role where you’ll gain exposure across multiple parts of the business, build strong relationships with stakeholders, and have the opportunity to contribute to process improvements that make a real difference.

What you’ll be doing:

  • Take ownership of month-end processes — preparing and posting journal entries, ensuring accuracy in the general ledger, and supporting Australia and New Zealand operations.
  • Deliver balance sheet reconciliations and reporting, while driving improvements for stronger controls and efficiency.
  • Work closely with business partners to provide accurate and timely reconciliations and financial data.
  • Prepare cashbooks and monthly bank reconciliations for underwriting facilities.
  • Monitor bank account activity, support cashflow forecasting and provide insights to help decision-making.
  • Review premium debtors each month and provide analysis that adds value to the business.

What’s in it for you:

  • A role with variety and exposure across multiple finance areas.
  • The chance to be part of a supportive team that values collaboration and knowledge-sharing.
  • Opportunities to contribute ideas and help shape more efficient finance processes.
  • Strong career development pathways
  • Work in a business that values both technical expertise and the ability to build strong working relationships.
  • Excellent work-from-home flexibility.

About You

  • You bring solid financial accounting experience, ideally within financial services.
  • CA/CPA qualified, or on the pathway to completion.
  • Strong Excel skills, with the ability to turn data into meaningful insights.
  • Strong communication skills — you’re just as comfortable preparing reports as you are working with stakeholders.
  • Exposure to the insurance or broader financial services industry is a bonus
