At Fliteboard, we’re building the world’s most loved foiling brand — across powered and unpowered water sports. In just five years, we’ve grown from start-up to a global business generating ~$80M in annual sales, with operations and customers across more than 90 countries. Backed by Brunswick Boat Group, the world’s leading marine products group, we’re entering our next phase of growth — scaling our portfolio, our teams, and our global operations, with ambitions to exceed $200M in revenue over the next three years. If you’re excited by working in a high-growth, international environment where strong financial stewardship underpins innovation and performance, you’ll feel at home at Fliteboard.
The Opportunity
This role offers a unique opportunity to lead Flite’s Group Finance team whilst working closely with the global leadership team and the parent entity’s corporate finance function in the USA.
Reporting to the CFO, this broadly scoped role has accountability for end-to-end financial management, including financial management and reporting, budgeting & forecasting, treasury, statutory reporting, taxation compliance and financial controls.
You will take a hands-on approach to overseeing day to day finance operations, while also partnering with the CFO and Management team, to provide high-quality financial analysis, insight and advice to support strategic decision making and operational excellence across Production Planning, Logistics, Marketing & Sales and Customer Experience.
In addition, you will build strong working relationships with local and international stakeholders and lead a high performing finance team focused on continuous improvement, value creation and maintaining robust financial systems, processes and controls appropriate for a growing global business.
About you
This is a rare opportunity for a commercially astute and self-motivated finance professional to join an entrepreneurial, award-winning organisation whilst working in the highly desirable Byron Bay region.
You will be a qualified CA/CPA with a strong ethical foundation, a collaborative leadership style and the ability to operate effectively in a fast paced, evolving environment. You will bring broad technical accounting experience, strong management reporting and analytical capability and a sound understanding of governance and internal controls.
Prior experience in a product-based environment e.g. FMCG/Manufacturing/Logistics or Supply Chain is advantageous but not essential. More importantly you will be able to demonstrate a track record of driving continuous improvements in financial control systems & processes and building trusted relationship across diverse groups of stakeholders.
