We offer a genuine hybrid work-from-home environment and are set up to work remotely where you can flex your time between any Uniting site and home.

Your team of motivated Business Partners and Analysts are geographically dispersed, although most head into our Lonsdale Street office 2 or 3 days per week.

You will have autonomy and ownership of the FP&A team and their core activities. Your customer group is the Exec team so it’s a great opportunity to influence and support robust financial decision-making and promote accountability.

Join an organisation that uses its connections, size, scale, and knowledge to push into places where we feel like we should be doing more.

You’ll also receive 17.5% leave loading and the ability to increase your take-home pay by accessing up to $15,900 in salary packaging benefits. There is also the option to increase your annual leave entitlements through our purchase leave program.

You are an experienced financial leader with strong commercial acumen and experience in fast-paced, results-driven organisations. You have proven capabilities in relationship-building and influence and you are collaborative by nature.

You’ll also bring with you:

• Relevant tertiary qualifications, CPA / CA accreditation or equivalent such as CIMA accreditation
• Experience working with complex funding models (ideally Government funders) in a highly compliant environment.
• Demonstrated understanding of financial accounting principles and standards including management and statutory reporting
• Experience in treasury management including securing external debt, evaluation and management preferred.

We have a strong growth agenda in our Housing and Property Division, so exposure or experience in this area would build our bench strength and give you a strong head start in the role.  We are also committed to new and better ways of working so any process improvement experience would also be put to good use in this role.
