Job summary
job detailsRandstad are currently partnered on a retained basis with a family owned transport business in Melbournes inner west who are looking to strengthen their executive team with the appointment of a Chief Financial Officer. During the pandemic, the business has leveraged its rich history operating across the whole of Australia to solidify itself as a market leader in the fields it operates and as a result has seen impressive growth. The executive team and board of directors are searching for a commercially astute, hands on CFO to help drive the business through its next phase of growth. This is an exciting opportunity for an established CFO to join the business and support the ELT and board to harness the true potential of this historic organisation.
You would be responsible for
- Strategy development alongside the executive leadership team and board of directors
- Management and development of the Finance and HR functions of up to 15 people
- Leading all corporate finance activities including M&A, funding and debt facilities
- Engendering a business partnering mentality across the business
- Utilising data analysis to inform strategic decision making
- Drive and own the FP&A activity across the organisation
- Be a primary stakeholder for both internal and external parties including banks, lenders and insurance providers
- Ensuring a robust tax planning process
- Developing finance, ERP and BI systems
- Management of the group property portfolio
To be successful in this role you will hold a recognised accountancy qualification (CA, CPA or equivalent) and will have demonstrable experience as a senior finance leader within a blue collar organisation. You will have a hands on management style and will lead from the front displaying best practice wherever possible. You will have a continuous improvement mindset and will be adept at identifying areas for improvement.
Experience working for a family owned/run business is a distinct advantage and you must be comfortable commuting to Melbournes inner western suburbs on a daily basis. Exposure to M&A activity is desirable as is the implementation and upgrade of financial systems. Executives who have previously managed IT functions alongside Finance and HR are encouraged to apply.
At Randstad, we are passionate about providing equal employment opportunities and embracing diversity to the benefit of all. We actively encourage applications from any background.
