A well‑known Melbourne‑based tech business with a significant global audience is searching for a Finance Director to join their leadership team. The business operates across multiple international markets, is backed by a respected European parent group, and is in the middle of a genuinely exciting commercial transformation.
The incoming Finance Director will inherit a strong foundation and a talented team — and will be expected to build on it, not rebuild it. You'll own the full finance function end to end and partner directly with a world‑class CEO as their closest commercial and financial advisor.
The formal reporting line sits with a Group CFO based in Europe — an experienced executive with a strong international pedigree. You'll be the most senior finance leader on the ground in Melbourne, operating with genuine autonomy and genuine accountability.
The Role
Full ownership of the finance function — reporting, FP&A, controllership, compliance, treasury and tax
Direct CEO partnership on commercial strategy, financial planning and the execution of a significant new revenue growth initiative
Group‑level reporting into a globally distributed leadership structure across multiple time zones
Lead, develop and inspire a small, high‑performing finance team
Drive continuous improvement across financial systems, processes and reporting quality
Hands‑on and strategic in equal measure — this business needs someone who can think at the executive level and still get into the detail when it matters
What We're Looking For
CA or CPA qualified
Proven experience owning the full finance function end to end
Background in a lean, high‑growth or scale‑up environment
Comfortable with a globally distributed stakeholder structure
Demonstrated ability to influence and advise at the executive level
AI‑forward mindset — the business has a genuine and active culture of AI adoption and you'll be expected to contribute to that, not observe it
The Detail
Location: Melbourne (hybrid model, with office presence encouraged)
$220k - $260k base + superannuation + 20% STI
