Job Description:

  • True business partnering role with direct exposure to GMs and senior leadership
  • Influence commercial decisions across a complex, multi-division environment
  • High-impact role across contracts, financial modelling and asset optimisation
  • A growing, investment-backed business is strengthening its commercial finance capability to support expansion across multiple operating divisions.

    This is a true business-facing role, partnering with operational leaders to drive performance, decision-making and commercial outcomes across a complex, asset-intensive environment.

    The Opportunity

    This business critical role will act as the lead finance partner across key divisions, working directly with GMs and MD-level stakeholders.

    This is not a reporting role -  it’s about influence, insight and impact across contracts, asset performance and strategic decision-making.

    Key Responsibilities
    • Partner with operational leaders across multiple divisions to drive performance and commercial outcomes
    • Build business cases and support contract negotiations and renewals
    • Provide financial modelling and analysis to support strategic and operational decisions
    • Support investment decisions across capital projects, asset performance and long-term planning
    • Provide insight into asset utilisation, performance and optimisation opportunities
    • Work closely with leadership on strategic decision-making and growth initiatives
    • Support budgeting and forecasting processes (led by FP&A leader)
    • Operate within a complex, contract-driven and multi-entity environment
    What Makes This Different
    • High visibility with senior operational stakeholders
    • Exposure to a complex, asset-intensive and multi-division business
    • Opportunity to influence asset performance, commercial outcomes and strategic direction
    • Work alongside an evolving FP&A function backed by strong leadership
    About You
    • Proven experience in a true business partnering role within asset-heavy, infrastructure, energy, mining, logistics or project-based environments
    • Strong financial modelling capability, with exposure to business cases, capex or asset performance
    • Experience operating in contract-driven or complex revenue environments
    • Strong commercial acumen and stakeholder engagement skills
    • Comfortable operating in complex, evolving environments
    • Someone who enjoys being at this level and influencing outcomes
    Working Environment
    • Flexible culture (office-led but not policy-driven)
    • Travel optional (operational exposure encouraged)
    • High-calibre leadership team
    This role suits someone who enjoys being embedded in the business, influencing decisions, and working closely with operational leaders in a complex, asset-driven environment.
