You'll lead a capable finance team and help embed robust frameworks that will support CHCs operations for years to come.
As a CPA or CA-qualified senior finance professional you bring a depth of experience across the full transaction lifecycle, including but not limited to structuring finance for infrastructure and/or property transactions. Ideally, this includes experience accessing funds from capital markets beyond traditional banks. Your proven ability to navigate and structure complex financial deals will be vital as CHC accelerates its strategic ambitions. Underpinning your technical expertise, is a strong values alignment and you are a strategic thinker who knows how to align finance with mission driven outcomes.
