About the Role
We are seeking an experienced Financial Accountant
to join our Adelaide-based finance team, supporting both Air Radiators – Industrial Pty Ltd
and Air Radiators Beverley Pty Ltd. This role is pivotal in delivering accurate and timely financial reporting, supporting strategic decision-making, and fostering close relationships across finance and operations.
Working closely with the Segment Group Accountant and Group Financial Controller, you’ll split your time between the Gillman

sites (minimum 2 days at each), ensuring visibility and relationship-building with teams on the ground.
Key responsibilities include:
- Preparing monthly and half-yearly financial reports with accompanying analysis and commentary
- Cash flow management and bank transaction review
- Balance sheet reconciliation and general ledger maintenance
- Supporting AP/AR and payroll functions (oversight, not processing)

This is a hands-on, solutions-focused role ideal for someone who thrives in a fast-paced environment and values building trust through clear, proactive communication.
About You
You're a confident, curious and commercially minded finance professional who enjoys both the technical detail and the bigger picture. You’ll bring a proactive attitude, a strong grasp of financial fundamentals, and the ability to explain the "why" behind the numbers.
To succeed, you will have:
- Tertiary qualifications in Accounting or Finance (CPA/CA qualified)
- Minimum 3 years’ experience in a similar financial accounting role
- Strong Excel and general systems skills (experience with Pronto and Adaptive an advantage)
- Experience in manufacturing, project accounting, or cost accounting (highly regarded)
- Excellent communication skills and the ability to liaise with non-finance stakeholders
- A natural problem-solver who can work independently and manage competing priorities
- A strong sense of initiative and a hands-on approach to driving results
What’s on Offer
- Competitive salary, depending on experience
- A permanent full-time opportunity within a stable and growing company
- Supportive leadership and a collaborative culture
- Exposure to both manufacturing and project-based financials
- Real impact – this is a role where your insights and input will be valued
