Description

Company Description Wētā Workshop is famous for bringing fantastical worlds to life through hyper-realistic props, costumes, armour, creatures, miniatures, bigatures and a whole lot more. Our Finance Team partner closely with the business, providing the analysis and insights to help them reach creative heights. Job Description We’ve said farewell to a Finance Business Partner, off to a new adventure in Sydney – and we’re looking for the right person to step into this exciting role. We need a commercially-minded finance professional to join our team, responsible for: Delivering clear monthly financial reporting and analysis (revenue, margin, trends) to inform decision-making and future strategy. Tracking and reporting financial and non-financial KPIs to measure performance, highlight success, and identify risks early. Partnering with Business Units to strengthen financial accuracy, shared insight, and overall business performance. Leading annual budgeting and rolling forecasting across revenue, gross margin, expenses, and EBITDA, including pipeline and committed revenue tracking to optimise resourcing and opportunities. Driving continuous improvement of finance processes and systems to deliver efficient, cost-effective support to the business. For more information, please see our job description here. We’re looking for… Someone with strong experience in a commercial financial analysis role, ideally in a manufacturing or services environment, who can show they have experience: Delivering financial reporting and analysis Providing commercially focused recommendations Producing budgets and continuous forecasting Developing great working partnerships with your stakeholders You’ll be CA qualified (or equivalent) and have a good grasp of accounting/reporting software. Our roles are hands-on, too – so you’ll need to be as comfortable processing journals, checking the AP runs etc as you are partnering with the business on financial strategy. Why us? This is Wellington – a great city, but one that doesn’t have many private-sector finance business-partnering roles that give you a chance to be part of a globally-recognised New Zealand success story. You’ll get to work in a complex, project-based environment with constantly changing productions and products – influencing and shaping decisions with commercial challenges that other corporate environments can’t provide. For someone who loves solving complex problems, partnering with creative teams, and seeing the real-world impact of their work, this role is for you. You’ll also be joining a collaborative, customer-focused and caring finance team, with a focus on helping people grow and develop. More info If you’d like to know more, please reach out to [email protected]. We’re based in Miramar, Wellington, and most of the action happens onsite - so while we’re flexible where we can be, you will need to be in the office at least 4 days a week. If this opportunity sounds like you, we’d love to hear from you soon. We’ll be progressing conversations and interviews with shortlisted candidates throughout the advertising period. Additional Information If we can do anything to accommodate you during the recruitment or interview process, please let us know. All applicants will undergo a Ministry of Justice check as part of our recruitment process. Location: Wellington Employment Type: Permanent Full Time Employee Department: Finance & Purchasing
