Working Hours & Conditions: Mondays to Fridays; 9:00AM to 5:00PM Australian Standard Time

OVERVIEW:

The company is seeking a Senior Management Accountant to join our team as a full-time offshore professional based in the Philippines. This is a high-impact, strategic finance role that goes well beyond traditional management accounting — you will own the full finance function, drive quarterly and long-range forecasting, support strategic planning, and be a true commercial partner to the Australian leadership team.

You will take responsibility for revenue, cost, and resource forecasting across the company's growing portfolio of energy infrastructure projects — substations, powerlines, BESS, solar, and wind — while producing the business intelligence reports that guide executive decision-making. You will also be the integration owner between Procore (project management) and Xero (accounting), ensuring seamless financial data flow across the business.

As the company is still a new business, we are looking for someone to build alongside us — designing and owning our finance systems from the ground up, and growing into a Finance Manager or Head of Finance role as the business scales.

3. Quarterly Forecasting

• Own and lead the quarterly forecasting cycle across the business — revenue, costs, resources, and cash.
• Prepare and present quarterly forecast packs to leadership, incorporating actuals-to-date, pipeline visibility, and updated assumptions.
• Maintain a rolling 12-month and 24-month forecast model, refreshed each quarter with updated project, pipeline, and operational data.
• Identify risks and opportunities within each quarterly cycle and present clear scenarios to support decision-making.

4. Revenue Forecasting

• Build and maintain detailed revenue forecasting models by project, contract, and business segment.
• Translate project pipeline and contract milestones into forward revenue schedules.
• Align revenue recognition to accounting standards, including percentage-of-completion and milestone-based bi
