Job Details

Ready to step into a role where finance leadership is as much about people and partnership as it is about the numbers?  We’re working with a respected national business seeking a commercially savvy Finance Manager to take charge of its Finance & Administration team, based in Adelaide.

This isn’t your typical back-office finance role. Here, you’ll sit at the centre of operations: collaborating daily with executive leaders, branch managers, and suppliers — all while steering a skilled finance team toward best practice and commercial impact.

Why this role is different

• Breadth and variety  I  Your remit goes beyond financial reporting — from inventory controls and payroll to sales support, system improvements and customer reporting.
• True partnership  I  You’ll work shoulder to shoulder with the CEO and executive team, providing analysis that guides key decisions across the business.
• Build and lead  I   Coach and empower a dedicated finance & admin team, fostering a positive, collaborative and industrious culture.
• Balance strategic and hands-on facets  I  Drive improvements, refine processes, and roll up your sleeves to support daily business demands.

What you’ll bring

• CA/CPA qualified (or working toward);
• Proven background in senior appointments leading finance teams, ideally across multiple sites or business units (required);
• Strong technical skills in budgeting, forecasting, payroll and management reporting;
• Dexterity with Excel (required) and familiarity with ERP systems (exposure to inventory and stock processes advantageous);
• A proactive, resilient and solutions-focused approach.

Why you’ll want this role

• Senior leadership role with influence across the business, reporting directly to the CEO;
• Diverse scope that combines big-picture leadership with operational delivery;
• Competitive salary and benefits;
• Employee discounts on products and services;
• Access to Employee Assistance Program (EAP) and wellbeing support;
• Opportunities to shape process and leave your mark as the business continues to evolve.

As the go-to advisor for the CEO and senior leadership team, translating data into clear insights that drive commercial outcomes, your ability to balance strategic oversight with practical, day-to-day delivery will make you central to the business’s continued success.
