Job description

CareChoice is a trusted NDIS and TAC/WorkSafe registered disability services provider, supporting people with disability and complex care needs since 2007. We deliver high-quality, person-centered services across home care, residential care, community access, and Specialist Disability Accommodation (SDA). Our dedicated team is committed to making a meaningful difference through compassionate, high-quality support.

• Hybrid working arrangement – 2 days per week in our Mulgrave Head Office
• Broad accounting role across financial reporting, management reporting, budgeting and forecasting
• Partner with leaders across a growing and purpose-driven organisation

Are you an experienced Accountant who enjoys working beyond the numbers, partnering with stakeholders and helping leaders make informed business decisions?

We're looking for an Accountant to join our team at CareChoice.

This is a broad and hands-on role that combines financial reporting, analysis, budgeting, forecasting and business partnering. You'll work closely with leaders across the organisation to ensure financial accuracy, provide meaningful insights and support strong financial performance.

You'll be more than just a transactional accountant. You'll play an important role in helping leaders understand their financial results, manage budgets, identify opportunities and support business growth.

About the Role

Reporting to the Finance Manager, you'll be responsible for ensuring financial accuracy and the timely delivery of accounting, reporting and analysis activities across the business. You'll support month-end and year-end processes, management reporting, budgeting, forecasting and statutory compliance requirements, while partnering with leaders to provide meaningful financial insights and support decision-making.

No two days will look the same. You might be preparing monthly financial reports, analysing business performance, supporting budget reviews, improving financial processes or contributing to annual planning activities.

Your role will include:

• preparing financial and management reports, reconciliations and month-end reporting
• supporting budgeting, forecasting and business performance analysis
• partnering with leaders to provide financial insights and support decision-making
• contributing to finance process improvements and providing support across payroll and broader finance activities when required

About You

You're likely to be an Accountant or Management Accountant who enjoys combining technical expertise with stakeholder engagement and business partnering.

You'll bring:

• experience in financial reporting, management accounting and reconciliations
• strong analytical capability and experience supporting budgeting and forecasting
• excellent stakeholder management and communication skills
• a proactive, organised and solutions-focused approach

A degree in Accounting, Commerce or Finance is essential, and CPA or CA qualifications (or progress towards them) will be highly regarded. Experience within disability, healthcare, aged care or community services would be beneficial, but is not essential.

Why CareChoice?

At CareChoice, our work makes a genuine difference in people's lives.

We are a registered disability services provider supporting people to live as independently as possible and to have choice and control over their lives. Our services span disability support, supported independent living, complex care, community participation and private aged care services.

As part of our Finance team, you'll have the opportunity to work across a growing and complex organisation, build strong relationships with leaders and contribute to business decisions that support quality services for our clients.

You’ll join a values-led organisation committed to:

• People First
• Brilliant Together
• Bring Our Best. Always.
• Relentless Optimism

If you enjoy the combination of financial analysis, business partnering and problem-solving, we'd love to hear from you.
