    The Role

    Your role as an APS5 Financial Analyst within the Financial Accounting and Assets teams is accountable for the following:

    • Supporting the completion of Defence's external financial reporting functions including journal preparation and reconciliations, balance sheet management and financial statement analysis.
    • Analysing information and communicating key messages to stakeholders in a variety of formats including written and oral.
    • Managing financial governance requirements and ensuring compliance with the financial management framework.
    • Building and sustaining relationships with stakeholders and subject matter experts to deliver outcomes, which includes liaising with a broad range of people including auditors, business areas, procurement and the military.
    • Providing sound practical advice and guidance to stakeholders on technical financial accounting and asset assurance activities. Understanding, applying, aligning Defence's mission and business objectives to financial reporting and asset management.

    About our Team
    There is no single employer in the Commonwealth that offers the breadth of technical challenges that DFG tackle. Working in the Financial Accounting and Assets team means you will be applying your professional judgement and knowledge to a huge range of complex accounting issues. The Financial Accounting and Assets team are responsible for the full financial reporting function and financial management of Defence assets through their capability lifecycle.

    They are also accountable for policy advice, compliance assurance and conducting quality assurance checks on financial accounting activities. The teams' judgement is relied upon to deliver professional advice and reporting around complex assets, business processes, procurements, and multi-year billion dollar projects.

    The team is responsible for the financial accounting behind the largest asset base in the Commonwealth valued into the hundreds of billions of dollars. Think big, physical tangible "stuff" like aircraft, ships, submarines, plus a huge property portfolio, specialist military equipment, and complex Intellectual Property and bespoke technology. Career growth prospects are strong, because if you understand the assets underpinning Defence, you will understand a lot about the business.

    You get to analyse complex trends, work on the forefront of changes to accounting standards (e.g. lease and asset standards changes) and as well as help prepare policies that impact the whole organisation. You will gain a full understanding of the asset lifecycle from procurement to disposal. There will also be the opportunity to get involved in the largest ERP (SAP) implementation project in the Southern Hemisphere.

    Our Ideal Candidate
    Our ideal candidate will demonstrate:

    • Strong analytical skills and attention to detail.
    • Strong initiative, sound practical judgement and resilience.
    • Strong written and oral communication skills.
    • Ability to produce quality work within short timeframes.
    • Excellent interpersonal and stakeholder engagement skills.
    • A commitment to continuous improvement.
