Job description

Ready to partner with leaders and help shape the future of finance at Teachers Health?

Join Teachers Health as a Finance Business Partner, where you'll work closely with senior leaders to provide strategic financial insight, support major transformation initiatives, and influence key business decisions across the organisation.

This is more than a traditional business partnering role. You'll have the opportunity to help shape a newly created position, contribute to enterprise-wide change programs, and build strong relationships with stakeholders across a diverse range of business areas.

About The Role

As our Finance Business Partner, you'll partner with leaders across the business to deliver valuable financial insights, budgeting and forecasting support, and commercial guidance that enables informed decision-making.

Supporting our FP&A Manager, you'll play a key role in delivering strategic initiatives, including enterprise transformation programs and Finance system enhancements. You'll work across functions including Technology, Digital and Enterprise Projects plus other areas, helping leaders understand financial performance, identify opportunities, manage risks and deliver outcomes aligned to our business plan.

This role will suit someone who thrives in a fast-paced and evolving environment. There is no typical day. One moment you may be presenting insights to senior leaders, the next building financial models, supporting project governance, or analysing performance trends to drive better business outcomes.

If you enjoy variety, stakeholder engagement, solving complex business problems and working in an environment where you can genuinely influence outcomes, we'd love to hear from you.

Who are we?

Teachers Health was created over 70 years ago exclusively for the education community. We care for more than 500,000 teachers, education staff and their families. We're proud of our heritage and excited about the future as we continue to grow our impact.

Why join Teachers Health?

• A competitive remuneration package

• Flexible hybrid working arrangements
• Subsidised private health insurance
• Discounts across Teachers Health products and services
• A comprehensive wellbeing program supporting your physical, mental and financial wellbeing
• Professional development and career growth opportunities
• The opportunity to work directly with senior leaders and executives
• The chance to play a key role in finance transformation and business improvement initiatives
• A collaborative, supportive and values-driven culture
• Convenient and accessible Surry Hills location

At Teachers Health, you'll join a purpose-led organisation where people genuinely care, collaborate and support each other to do their best work.

What will you do?

In This Role, You Will

• Partner with business leaders to provide trusted financial advice, commercial insights and support strategic decision-making
• Lead budgeting, forecasting and management reporting activities, providing visibility of financial performance, trends, risks and opportunities
• Develop financial models, scenario analysis and business cases to support investment decisions, strategic initiatives and business planning
• Translate complex financial information into meaningful, actionable insights that support informed decision-making across the business
• Support enterprise transformation programs and projects through strong financial governance, accountability and performance monitoring
• Work closely with project and program managers to manage project financials, funding, forecasts and benefits realisation
• Identify opportunities for process improvement, capability uplift and cost efficiencies across the organisation
• Build strong partnerships across Finance and the broader business to influence positive outcomes and deliver organisational objectives

What do I need?

To Succeed In This Role, You Will Need

• Tertiary qualifications in Accounting, Finance, Business or a related discipline, with CA or CPA qualifications strongly preferred
• 7+ years' experience in a Finance Business Partner, Management Accounting or similar commercial finance role
• Demonstrated experience in budgeting, forecasting, management reporting and delivering commercial insights to support business performance
• Advanced financial modelling, analysis and business case development skills, with strong proficiency in Excel and financial systems
• Proven ability to partner, influence and build credibility with senior leaders, delivering trusted financial advice and strategic recommendations
• Exceptional stakeholder engagement, communication and relationship management skills, with the ability to translate complex financial information into meaningful business outcomes
