SUPPORT OUR GROWTH PLANS AS OUR NEXT HEAD OF ACCOUNTING

Lead and transform our group-wide accounting function, combining deep expertise across General Ledger, Financial Reporting, Tax, Treasury, Accounts Receivable, and Accounts Payable with strong leadership, process improvement, and change-management skills. You’ll own the integrity, accuracy, timeliness, and control environment of the company’s financial records while helping shape a more scalable, automated, and standardised finance organisation.
