The Role

As Senior Financial Accountant, you will:

  • Oversee balance sheet controls, reconciliations, and compliance with internal policies
  • Support business transformation initiatives and process improvement projects within finance
  • Mentor and support junior members of the finance team

  • Strong technical accounting knowledge (IFRS essential)
  • Experience in statutory reporting, consolidations, and financial controls
  • Excellent stakeholder management skills and the ability to influence at all levels
  • A proactive, solutions-focused approach with strong analytical skills
  • Infrastructure, construction, or asset-heavy sector experience is advantageous but not essential
