Who We Are: At Hunt St, we help Australian companies hire top remote talent in the Philippines. For this role, you will be engaged directly by the client as an independent contractor. We are not an outsourcing agency. All of our roles are 100% remote so you'll be able to work from home.

You'll be the senior-most finance person in the business, responsible for bringing structure, accuracy, and forward-looking insight to a growing operation.

Key Responsibilities:

• Own end-to-end financial management of the business, including monthly management accounts, budgeting, forecasting, and cash flow reporting
• Act as a strategic partner to the Managing Director, providing financial insight to support pricing, fleet investment, and growth decisions
• Monitor and manage working capital, including equipment financing, asset depreciation schedules, and inventory-related costs
• Develop and maintain robust financial controls, policies, and procedures to support the business as it scales
• Lead annual budgeting and rolling forecast processes across departments
• Liaise with banks, auditors, insurers, and other external financial stakeholders as needed
