  • Leading the budgeting and forecasting cycles across all departments

  • Performing guided and ad hoc financial analysis to provide meaningful insights into port operations and support decision-making
  • Working closely with operational teams to combine financial and operating data for strategic improvements
  • Supporting the Finance Manager with business improvement initiatives and planning
  • Advising internal stakeholders and contributing to broader team success

Strong stakeholder engagement, analytical capability, and a genuine interest in business performance will be critical to success in this role.

What’s on Offer:

  • A competitive total salary package with relocation assistance and temporary accommodation on offer to help you settle in.
  • Long-term career opportunity with a highly regarded organisation in the heavy industry sector – This is a visible, impactful role with exposure to operations, planning, and strategy
  • Enjoy an affordable coastal lifestyle with access to world-class beaches, national parks, scenic hikes, and fantastic camping options from beachfront holiday parks to remote bush and island camping spots.

Whether you're looking to step into a more commercially focused position or seeking a lifestyle change without sacrificing career progression, this is an opportunity worth exploring.

What We’re Looking For:

  • Degree qualified in Accounting, Finance, or a related discipline
  • CA/CPA qualified (or progressing towards)
  • Strong background in budgeting, forecasting, and financial analysis
  • Experience within heavy industry, mining, infrastructure, or a similar operational environment would be ideal.
  • High-level Excel skills and familiarity with ERP systems (SAP preferred)
  • Strong communication and stakeholder management abilities
