Job description

ASC is Australia’s submarine company. We built the Royal Australian Navy’s Collins Class submarines, sustain them, and are now delivering their Life of Type Extension to increase the boats’ service lives.

Our work is interesting and meaningful, contributing directly to Australia’s national security. We offer rewarding roles that provide the opportunity to grow your career, and the flexibility to balance life and work. A career at ASC is like no other, delivering a deeper purpose we can all be proud of.

About the Opportunity

You bring experience in financial administration, budgeting, forecasting, and performance reporting, with the ability to interpret data and provide meaningful insights that support informed decision-making. You are comfortable working across multiple projects simultaneously, maintaining robust financial controls while ensuring compliance with governance and reporting requirements.

A proactive and collaborative team member, you build strong relationships with a diverse range of stakeholders and can confidently liaise with managers, project teams, subject matter experts, and finance professionals.

• Develop and maintain financial tracking tools, metrics, and reporting systems to ensure accurate governance, compliance, and project visibility.
• Build and maintain strong relationships with stakeholders across the business, partnering with project teams to promote sound financial management practices.
• Contribute to a safe, inclusive, and high-performing culture while supporting projects that enhance workforce capability and organisational growth.

About you

• Relevant tertiary or vocational qualifications in Finance, Project Management, or a related discipline, or equivalent professional experience.
• Strong financial analysis, reporting, and stakeholder management skills, with the ability to communicate effectively with a broad range of audiences.
• Proficiency in project management and finance systems, including Microsoft Excel, SharePoint, Jira, and other reporting tools.
• Experience working in a project-based environment, ideally within Defence or a similarly complex industry, will be highly regarded.

This role is well suited to professionals with experience in finance administration, accounts payable, procurement, project financial support, or broader finance coordination roles who are looking to apply their skills in a project-focused environment.
