This is a hands-on, end-to-end finance operations role with primary focus on the US. Reporting into our Group Finance Manager, you'll sit at the intersection of accounting, billing, and operational finance — working across time zones, building strong relationships with internal teams, and making sure the numbers are right. We want someone who takes ownership, asks good questions, and sees process improvement as part of the job.

This is a Hybrid role based in Auckland. The role required some flexibility to work early morning hours (7:30AM onwards) as it will need to liaise with the US team.
