Senior Finance Partner | 6 Month Contract | Adelaide | Remote working | EL1 / EL2
Are you a senior finance leader seeking a high-impact role that blends executive responsibility with genuine work-life balance?
We are partnering with a major SA Public Sector Health organisation who are at the heart of providing essential care to communities across a vast region. They are seeking a Senior Finance Partner for a pivotal 6-month contract, commencing in January 2026.
This is not just a back-office accounting role; it's a true 2IC (second-in-command) and a key strategic advisor to the head of finance.
The Opportunity
You will lead, mentor, and support the established Finance and Business Advisory team, which oversees all financial operations for numerous geographically dispersed sites.
Your primary focus will be to act as a "translator," bridging the gap between complex financial data and the non-financial leaders who rely on it. A key function will be preparing and presenting clear, insightful, and compelling reports for governance groups and the Governing Board.
Why This Role is Different
... A Role That Respects Your Life: This is a genuine 100% remote-first opportunity. We are seeking the best talent, regardless of location. You'll only be required to visit the central office monthly, allowing you to build the work-life integration that's right for you.
Purpose-Driven Leadership: Your work has a direct community impact. Your strategic advice will be instrumental in supporting the delivery of essential health services across the state.
A Collaborative Culture: This role is built for a leader who values partnership. You will be a trusted advisor to clinicians, service leaders, and executives, helping them understand their financial landscape to make the best decisions.
About You
You are a qualified (CPA/CA) and experienced finance executive.
You are an exceptional communicator with a high degree of emotional intelligence, able to explain complex ideas with clarity and empathy.
You have proven experience in the public sector or a similarly large, complex, and geographically dispersed organisation.
You are a natural at building relationships, mentoring teams, and influencing at an executive level.
If you are a strategic leader ready to make a tangible difference in a role that values your expertise and your time, we would love to hear from you.
