Lead multi-disciplinary teams to deliver accurate, evidence-based financial reporting that supports long-term research sustainability.

Hold a degree in finance or a related field, with over 10 years of experience in strategic financial leadership and performance management.
Be a full member of a recognised accounting body (Australian or international equivalent).
Demonstrate proven leadership in financial strategy, planning, and advisory, particularly in supporting complex, research-intensive environments.
Have expertise in financial modelling and scenario planning to influence high-level decision-making.
Be a strategic thinker with exceptional communication skills and a collaborative approach to stakeholder management.
