ROLE OVERVIEW:

Our client is an end-to-end B2B SaaS platform delivering specialized workforce management software designed for operational precision across scheduling, compliance, time tracking, invoicing, and payroll. Operating in a high-volume, multi-entity environment undergoing rapid international expansion and strategic acquisitions, the organization is bringing its core finance operations fully in-house to support scalable long-term growth. Working closely with executive leadership, this critical role goes beyond traditional accounting to take complete ownership of financial consolidations, month-end close optimization, SaaS performance metrics, and commercial analysis. We are seeking a proactive leader with a Financial Controller mindset who can independently challenge assumptions, eliminate operational bottlenecks, and bring clear financial visibility to strategic executive decisions. 

RESPONSIBILITIES:

• Financial Close, Reporting & Multi-Entity Consolidation:
• Take end-to-end ownership of the month-end close cycle, including journal entries, accruals, prepayments, balance sheet reconciliations, and consolidated financial reporting.
• Lead the strategic transition of financial close and reporting activities from external advisers to the internal finance function.
• Audit and streamline close workflows to significantly reduce month-end closing timelines from 2–3 weeks.
• Prepare accurate, consolidated profit and loss statements, balance sheets, and cash flow reports across multiple domestic and international entities while maintaining audit-ready documentation.
• Management Accounting & Commercial Analysis:
• Deliver monthly management accounts supported by deep, commercially relevant commentary on business performance and profitability drivers.
• Perform budget-versus-actual and month-on-month variance analyses, actively investigating root causes rather than merely reporting numbers.
• Develop, maintain, and refine annual budgets, rolling forecasts, and multi-entity cash flow projections.
• Partner with executive leadership to evaluate operational margins, identify financial risks, and translate complex financial data into actionable growth strategies.
• SaaS Performance Metrics & Revenue Recognition:
• Track, analyze, and report on key SaaS metrics, including MRR, ARR, churn, customer retention, customer acquisition cost (CAC), and customer lifetime value (LTV).
• Reconcile complex subscription, recurring billing, and usage data with core management accounts in full alignment with revenue recognition principles.
• Acquisitions & Process Transformation:
• Support post-acquisition financial integrations, harmonizing accounting policies, chart of accounts, and financial frameworks across acquired businesses.
• Audit existing financial workflows, identify manual bottlenecks, and implement modern automation tools and robust internal controls.
• Coach and uplift existing bookkeeping and operational finance team members, establishing clear procedures, responsibilities, and reporting deadlines.

QUALIFICATIONS:

• Experience: Minimum 7+ years of progressive accounting and finance experience, including substantial senior management accounting, finance manager, or financial controller responsibilities.
• Industry Background: Proven experience operating within a B2B SaaS, subscription-based technology, or recurring revenue software business.
• Core Technical Competencies: Demonstrated ownership of financial consolidations, multi-entity accounting, month-end close streamlining, budgeting, forecasting, and variance analysis.
• SaaS Expertise: Deep working knowledge of subscription billing models, revenue recognition standards, and core SaaS unit economics (MRR/ARR/Churn).
• Education & Skills: Bachelor’s degree in Accounting, Finance, or a related discipline; advanced Excel skills for complex financial modeling; and exceptional written and verbal English communication skills for senior stakeholder management.

DESIRED (NOT REQUIRED):

• Professional qualification such as CPA, CA, ACCA, or equivalent.
• Direct reporting experience to a CFO, Finance Director, or senior executive.
• Exposure to Australian accounting standards, tax compliance, and business frameworks.
• Practical experience navigating fast-paced technology businesses undergoing mergers and acquisitions (M&A) or international expansion.
• Familiarity with integrated SaaS billing engines, ERP platforms, and automated reporting systems.
