For more than 30 years, Carers Queensland has been committed to supporting the well-being and resilience of carers across Queensland. Established to empower and advocate for the needs of the now more than 600,000 unpaid family carers in Queensland, Carers Queensland operates both as the Peak Body for Carers in Queensland, as well as providing a range of services that either directly or indirectly support carers.  These services include educational and employment services, emotional support and social connection, as well as the largest Local Area Coordination service in the country in partnership with the NDIA. By addressing the unique challenges faced by carers, Carers Queensland's over 600 staff play a crucial role in enhancing the quality of life for both carers and the individuals they care for, fostering a more inclusive and supportive community.

We have an opportunity for an experienced and dynamic Chief Financial Officer to join the Executive Leadership Team under the leadership of a new CEO. The CFO will play a pivotal role in providing strategic financial advice and reporting to the Board and CEO as the organisation works to achieve its next stage of evolution as an impactful not-for-profit organisation in the Queensland human services sector. Consideration of new business and tender opportunities will be a key part of the role into the near future.

The role will also be responsible for providing leadership and operational management for Finance, Property, IT, Payroll and Business Intelligence, delighting operational colleagues with collaborative and high-quality services that both support and enable the organisation to deliver on its strategy. 

We anticipate that your extensive track record of financial leadership will have been gained at least in part in a Not-For-Profit environment and must be underpinned by the possession of CPA/CA accreditation. Strategic thinking and a growth mindset will be key personal attributes, along with the ability to communicate effectively with a wide range of stakeholders. Experience in leading IT services or projects will be a distinct advantage.
