Are you an accounting professional who enjoys understanding the story behind the numbers and helping leaders make better business decisions?
Suncorp Valuations is seeking a hands‑on Manager, Finance & Accounting who combines strong accounting fundamentals with analytical curiosity, people leadership, and a desire to help improve how an organization operates.
This role is ideal for a robust accounting professional who wants to broaden their impact, develop their leadership capability, and grow into a more strategic finance role over time.

As you become established, you'll partner with leaders across the organization to translate financial and operational data into meaningful insights, identify opportunities for improvement, and support stronger business outcomes.
You'll also help develop a capable Finance team through coaching, mentoring, and knowledge sharing.
Success in this role means becoming a strategic Finance leader who ensures the numbers are accurate and helps the business understand what they mean and what to do next.
