Finance & Reporting Lead
Overview:
Location: Regional Queensland. DIDO from Brisbane (3h) or Toowoomba (2h)
Hybrid Working: 3 Days in the Office (subsidised staff housing) | 2 Days Remote
Flexibility: Enjoy a Nine-Day Fortnight
Salary: $120,000 + Superannuation + Salary Packaging
Industry: Not for Profit / For Purpose
At Recruitment Labs, we’ve always gone out of our way to support businesses that make a genuine difference. Our commitment to the not-for-profit sector is more than just talk; it’s part of our ongoing effort to give back in meaningful and lasting ways. We're proud to be partnering with a respected NFP providing critical services to Queensland’s regional communities.
Role Profile:
The role is a full-time position with a business that absolutely embraces workplace flexibility. They understand that life happens and accommodate flexibility in start and finish times, as well as the opportunity to work a condensed nine-day fortnight. For those who choose to fully embrace the regional lifestyle, a relocation allowance is provided and for those who prefer to commute weekly from the city, subsidised staff housing is available (DIDO 3 Days in the office and two remote from home – Toowoomba and Brisbane probably make the most sense).
As the Finance Lead, you will manage a small, capable finance team while supporting the CEO with financial reporting, governance, and continuous improvement. This is a hands-on leadership role that blends operational rigour with meaningful impact.
Key responsibilities include:
* Leading day-to-day financial operations: accounts payable, receivable, payroll, and reconciliations
* Preparing and delivering monthly reporting for managers and the board
* Overseeing budgeting processes and coordinating year-end financial statements
* Supporting audit and compliance activities across multiple funding streams
* Mentoring and developing the finance team, with a focus on process improvement, cross-training and creating career pathways
* Engaging with operational leaders to support sound financial decisions and governance
* Help oversee a large capex project over the next 12-18 months with the construction of new facilities
* Play a lead role in a finance systems implementation on the cards within the next two years.
Successful Candidate Profile
We’re looking for a technically capable and values-driven leader who enjoys variety, autonomy, and purpose. You’re someone who gets the detail right, supports your team, and builds credibility across departments.
You’ll bring:
* A tertiary qualification in accounting, finance or commerce and ideally either be CPA/CA qualified or on your way to qualifying.
* Solid experience across financial operations, payroll, and reporting
* Strong compliance awareness
* Prior experience managing or mentoring others
* Systems savvy (there’s a desire to implement a new financial system)
* The ability to build trust with service managers and support financial stewardship
While an NFP background would be handy, this role would really suit any commercially minded accountant with a desire to do good. Someone from a multi-site, multi-service business would thrive, and anyone from a background in health, aged care, or education would have a leg up. If you're passionate about leading finance in an organisation that values people and place, we’d love to hear from you.
