Canberra, Österreich Yass, NSW, Australia Vollzeit

You're an experienced Financial Accountant, confident in your role, and everything in your remit runs smoothly. That is your job, right? But are you challenged? Are you learning, growing, and on a pathway to a CFO role? What if your next position had you working alongside a highly experienced CFO, tackling real financial challenges, and playing a critical role in ensuring financial sustainability and strategic long term financial planning? At Yass Valley Council (YVC), financial transformation is underway. With a clear appetite for reform, you have an opportunity to step into a complex financial environment, sharpen your strategic thinking, work with and build capability within a small team, and be mentored by a CFO who is actively investing in succession planning. You’ll lead financial reporting, compliance, treasury management, investment portfolios, and long‑term financial planning, ensuring financial integrity and best‑practice operations. Beyond the technical responsibilities, this role offers a rare chance to gain exposure to high‑level decision‑making, develop leadership skills, and make a real impact on the financial sustainability of a significant public organisation. You’ll build and maintain strong relationships across all levels of the organisation, and lead, develop and mentor a dedicated finance team to achieve section and organisational goals. You will also oversee the maintenance and enhancement of financial systems and controls to ensure compliance with legislation, grant acquittals, benchmarking, and tax obligations, and play a key role in shaping Council’s long‑term financial future. The CFO is hiring for a financial professional with experience in financial and statutory reporting. Exposure to local government or a complex regulatory environment will be welcomed, and you have CPA or CA qualification (or be working towards it), strong analytical skills, and a desire to influence financial strategy and governance. This is more than just another Financial Accountant role it's a career‑shaping opportunity to step up, tackle real financial challenges, and position yourself for a future CFO role. Other benefits of working with YVC include a nine‑day fortnight and a definite lifestyle choice if you live that way If not, many people commute to and from Canberra and the surrounding region so your motivation may be to take a position that elevates your experience and skills, giving you a strong platform from which to progress.
