A bit about your role

As the Senior Manager, Finance Enterprise Partnering, you will provide high‑quality finance business partnering across the organisation to enable delivery of nbn’s long‑term business plan. You will act as the enterprise finance lead for gross resourcing costs and will guide all operating expenses, gross resourcing costs and leases for multiple business units including minor capex programs. You will set a clear rhythm for long‑term operating expense forecasting, scenario planning and analytics, creating shared understanding that helps leaders make confident, timely decisions.

This is a high‑profile role that supports nbn’s cost efficiency agenda and works closely with GMs and EGMs across the business. You will provide transparent, timely analysis and reporting that influences commercial actions, bringing clarity to complexity and aligning spend to strategy. The portfolios you steward are of significant strategic importance and underpin nbn’s operational and financial success. You will cultivate strong cross‑company relationships, play a visible leadership role within Finance and the wider organisation, and apply a thorough knowledge of the nbn Corporate Plan to support teams to deliver on their objectives with care and accountability.

A bit about you

You are a collaborative and purpose‑led finance leader with a bachelor’s degree in finance, Accounting, Business Administration or Economics, and you are CA or CPA qualified. You bring proven experience in financial reporting, planning or commercial finance, with a strong track record in FP&A or Commercial Finance across business partnering, reporting, budgeting, forecasting and analytics.

You are hands‑on with budgeting and forecasting tools such as Hyperion and / or Anaplan, comfortable working within fully integrated ERPs like Oracle or SAP, and highly proficient in Excel. Experience in the Technology or Telco sector will help you step in with confidence from day one.

You communicate with warmth and precision, translating complex modelling into clear, user‑friendly insights that build trust and enable action. You influence thoughtfully, negotiate outcomes constructively, and synthesise diverse information—balancing data, intuition and experience to guide balanced, commercial choices. You are at ease navigating ambiguity and tight timelines, managing projects and dependencies with care, and using change management frameworks to ensure stakeholders remain informed, prepared and engaged. Above all, you bring people together around a shared purpose, champion disciplined resource stewardship, and model a calm, solutions‑focused approach that helps nbn deliver for communities across Australia.
