About the role

Chandler Macleod is recruiting on behalf of our client for an exceptional opportunity within a high-profile Federal Government agency supporting Australia’s most significant long-term capability program.

This is a unique chance for an experienced APS6 Finance Business Partner to join the Australian Submarine Agency (ASA), contributing to a nationally significant defence initiative that will shape Australia’s security, workforce, industrial capability and supply chains for decades to come.

About the Role
Working within the ASA environment, the APS6 Finance Business Partner is accountable (under broad direction and with a high degree of autonomy) for providing strategic financial analysis, assurance and advice to support the delivery of budgets and outcomes, including across the capability development process.

The acquisition of conventionally armed, nuclear-powered submarines is an historic and transformative endeavour for Australia. This whole-of-nation effort will transform Australia’s economic and national security landscape for decades to come.
Within the ASA Finance Branch, you will support agency and program-wide decision-making through the development and implementation of processes that enable accurate, timely financial information and insight in a complex, fast-paced, high-profile environment.

About the Team
The ASA Finance Branch supports the Chief Financial Officer, the Assistant Director General Program Costing, and the broader ASA through the provision of expert strategic support and advice relating to the acquisition, sustainment and disposal of nuclear-powered submarines (NPS).
ASA fosters an inclusive culture that emphasises respect and collaboration and prioritises safety and security. You will be working at the cutting edge of capability delivery, supported by professionalisation pathways and unique career opportunities.

Key Responsibilities
You will be responsible for supporting and delivering finance business partnering outcomes, including:
  • Providing strategic financial analysis, assurance and advice to support budgets, outcomes and capability delivery
  • Developing and maintaining collaborative finance business partnerships, including identifying financial risks and opportunities
  • Supporting business leads with budget proposals and performance reviews, including assessing contracts/agreements for financial impacts against schedule
  • Contributing to financial aspects of asset management (e.g., asset reconciliations, Asset Valuation Models (AVMs), Project Capitalisation Plans, asset rollouts, aged/uncleared balances)
  • Preparing high-quality briefs and reports that identify issues and provide practical recommendations
  • Working within relevant Commonwealth financial and budgeting frameworks, legislation, policy and processes
  • Managing competing priorities while exercising initiative and judgement to achieve outcomes
About You:
You will demonstrate:
  • Proven experience providing strategic financial advice and analysis in complex stakeholder environments
  • Strong collaboration and relationship-building skills (you can partner effectively with senior stakeholders)
  • Sound understanding of commercial cost drivers and the financial impacts on deliverables
  • Experience preparing briefs, reports and recommendations to support decision-making
  • Ability to work independently with autonomy, initiative and accountability in a high-paced environment
Mandatory qualifications / experience (required)
Relevant experience as a Finance Business Partner / Finance Adviser (APS6 level or equivalent), ideally within government or similarly complex environments.

Applicants must be able to obtain and maintain a Negative Vetting Level 1 (NV1) security clearance.
Flexible working arrangements may be supported where aligned with operational and business requirements.
