Role Highlights:
This is a career-defining opportunity to join a fast-evolving FMCG business undergoing significant transformation. The role offers broad exposure across marketing finance, commercial fixed cost management and FP&A within a high-performing ANZ finance team. You will partner closely with senior commercial leaders and play a key role in driving financial insight, discipline and decision support across the region.

Role Overview

This position sits within a dynamic ANZ Commercial Finance function responsible for driving financial performance across marketing investment, fixed costs and broader planning and analysis activities. Regularly, you will be deeply involved in month-end reporting cycles, forecasting updates, and budget tracking, while working closely with marketing and commercial teams to ensure spend is controlled and aligned to business objectives. You will also support balance sheet integrity through reconciliations and purchase order oversight.

In addition, the role plays a key part in shaping financial decision-making across ANZ by delivering meaningful analysis, insights and reporting. You will be responsible for translating complex financial data into clear recommendations that support investment decisions, cost optimisation and business performance improvement. This is a highly visible role requiring agility across systems, strong analytical capability and the confidence to partner with senior stakeholders across multiple geographies.

Responsibilities

• Lead financial business partnering across ANZ Marketing, ensuring effective tracking and control of marketing spend
• Own month-end close activities and performance reporting in collaboration with regional finance teams
• Manage marketing-related balance sheet reconciliations including PO tracking and governance

You are adaptable and comfortable working across multiple systems and stakeholders in a matrix structure.

A proactive mindset, attention to detail, and the ability to operate at pace and with accuracy will be key to success in this role.
