Purpose, people and profit are all equally important to you and maintaining a balance of head and heart. You are someone who takes trust and reputation seriously, while holding yourself and life lightly.
You are a Certified Public Accountant with over 3 years of experience in commercial organisations. You are an expert in financial modelling and data analysis, have great attention to detail, and take initiative, constantly looking for areas that can be optimised.
You have a hands–on approach to financial management and reporting. As a skilled business partner, you identify financial risks and opportunities and provide valuable insights to support decision making.
You're adaptable, thrive in a dynamic and highly collaborative environment, and have the flexibility to work remotely with a distributed team across multiple time zones. That means early starts and/or late finishes every now and then, though we all work to minimise this and be respectful of your personal and family time. This also means the flexibility to shape your working hours in a way that works for you and for us.
