Financial Controller

Drive Financial Excellence at a High-Growth FinTech | Own Global Operations, Reporting & Strategy in AU & US | Shape the Future of B2B Payments Security with Eftsure

Join the team revolutionising digital security for B2B payments.

We’re looking for a commercially sharp and detail-obsessed Financial Controller to lead our finance operations across Australia and our growing US office in Dallas. Based in North Sydney with a flexible hybrid setup, this is a hands-on, high-impact role for someone who thrives in fast-paced environments and wants to shape the future of a scaling FinTech SaaS business.

You’ll report to the VP of Finance & Operations and take full ownership of everything from AP/AR and financial reporting to audits, revenue recognition, tax, payroll, and risk. We're after someone who’s not afraid to get in the weeds, spot opportunities for process improvement, and drive end-to-end finance projects that enable scale and clarity as we grow.

What success looks like in this role

You’ll be responsible for building a world-class finance function that keeps pace with our growth and sets the standard for operational excellence. Success looks like:

  • 7-Day Global Close: Timely and accurate month-end across global entities
  • Board & Investor Reporting: Clear, consolidated insights with SaaS KPIs and variance analysis
  • Audit-Ready Financials: Unqualified audits and full statutory compliance across jurisdictions
  • Contracts: Clean application of IFRS 15 / ASC 606 across complex SaaS contracts, ensuring accurate and timely customer invoicing.
  • Payables & Expense Management: Timely management and payment of vendors and employee expenses.
  • Accounts Receivable: Maintain clean book of receivables and credit control.
  • Transfer Pricing & GST Compliance: Accurate intercompany accounting and tax compliance
  • Payroll Compliance & Coordination: Seamless payroll delivery in AU and US, in partnership with P&C
  • Cash & FX Reporting: Real-time cash forecasting and visibility on FX exposure
  • Tax Management: Timely and accurate filings with support from external tax partners
  • Insurance Program: Comprehensive and up-to-date coverage across key risk areas
  • M&A Support: Accurate accounting and integration of acquisitions
  • Cap Table Management: Clean records and accurate accounting of equity grants
  • Finance Stack Integration: Smooth data flow across ERP, CRM, AP, and HR systems
  • Team Leadership: A motivated, high-performing internal and outsourced finance team

What you’ll be doing day to day

This is a hands-on, high-impact role where you’ll lead the financial engine of a scaling SaaS business. You’ll:

  • Own and improve financial operations, month-end close, and group consolidation
  • Ensure accurate revenue recognition under IFRS 15 / ASC 606
  • Oversee compliance with local and international tax, audit, and statutory obligations
  • Coordinate payroll, benefits, and reporting with People & Culture teams across AU and US
  • Manage risk and insurance programs, ensuring appropriate and current coverage
  • Support board reporting and investor relations with clear, actionable financial insights
  • Continuously optimise our finance systems and processes for scale and efficiency

You’ll thrive in this role if you have:

  • A CA or CPA qualification and 7+ years’ experience in finance leadership
  • Deep understanding of SaaS metrics and business models (ARR, NRR, deferred revenue, margins)
  • Hands-on experience with IFRS 15 / ASC 606, especially for multi-year or usage-based contracts
  • Strong technical accounting and group consolidation skills (multi-entity, multi-currency)
  • Experience navigating global tax, transfer pricing, and statutory reporting
  • A track record of leading clean external audits and managing audit processes
  • Exposure to payroll, P&C processes, and benefits across different regions
  • Experience managing commercial insurance programs and cap table/equity accounting
  • A process-first mindset with a passion for automation and tech
  • Confidence working across systems like Sage Intacct, HubSpot, Zudello, EmploymentHero, and Justworks

What’s in it for you?

We’re passionate about helping you grow your career while building a company that’s changing the game in B2B payments. Here’s what you can expect:

  • A pivotal role with direct exposure to executive leadership and the board
  • The opportunity to design and scale a best-in-class finance function
  • A fast-paced, purpose-driven environment where your work matters
  • Flexibility to balance work and life, without losing the team connection
  • The satisfaction of knowing you’re protecting businesses from fraud and financial crime

Some of the perks:

  • Birthday Leave
  • Floating Cultural Holidays
  • A day off to support a charity of your choice
  • Annual wellness reimbursement of $250
  • Flexible working arrangements to support work-life balance

If this sounds like your kind of role, we’d love to hear from you. Come join us at Eftsure and help shape the financial foundations of a company that’s building trust into every transaction.
