Are you a hands‑on, technically strong finance professional ready to shape the financial foundations of a global MedTech leader? This is your opportunity to further advance your Finance Manager experience in a high‑impact role where ownership, accountability, and problem‑solving truly matter.
At BD, possibility isn’t an idea - It’s what we do. We are the Makers of Possible.
As the Finance Manager, you’ll own the end‑to‑end financial accounting and compliance agenda for our 3 entities. Reporting to a recently promoted Financial Controller, you’ll play a critical role in shaping and strengthening robust financial processes, partnering with offshore shared services, and lifting the capability and culture of the ANZ finance team.
This role is perfect for someone who thrives in environments with change and ambiguity, brings sound judgement, and enjoys solving problems pragmatically - especially when the path isn’t always clear.
If you’re technically strong, resourceful, and excited by the chance to influence outcomes and build something meaningful, this role is made for you.
Your Day-to-Day
- Own the full end‑to‑end month‑end close process, ensuring accuracy, rigour and timeliness
- Review and maintain balance sheet integrity, including reconciliations, provisions and reserves
- Partner closely with the offshore Shared Services Centre to drive accountability, process clarity and continuous improvement
- Act as the technical accounting lead for ANZ, providing guidance on complex accounting matters
- Ensure full compliance with statutory and tax obligations including income tax, FBT and local reporting requirements
- Prepare and coordinate statutory financial statements
- Liaise with external advisors, auditors and internal stakeholders as needed
- Act as a key SAP user, ensuring accurate financial processing and system integrity
- Identify opportunities to simplify processes, strengthen controls and improve efficiency
- Translate complex accounting or compliance issues into clear, practical business guidance
- Lead and develop a Financial Accountant through coaching, prioritisation and technical guidance
About You
You’re technically strong, highly resourceful and thrive in environments where not everything is defined yet. You bring clarity to ambiguity and enjoy figuring things out. You have the confidence to own outcomes end‑to‑end and the humility to collaborate in a team where collective success matters.
Your ability to simplify complexity, influence without authority and connect the dots across financial data makes you a trusted partner, both within finance and across the business.
You’ll Bring
- Experience in a product‑based organisation (non‑negotiable)
- Strong technical accounting capability with demonstrated ownership of end‑to‑end month‑end close, balance sheet review & control and hands‑on general accounting delivery
- Proven tax and statutory compliance experience, including income tax, FBT and statutory accounts
- SAP proficiency (must‑have)
- M&A exposure and legal entity consolidation desirable
- Experience navigating US GAAP and IFRS differences
- Strong problem‑solving capability and ability to move from issue → solution quickly
- Ability to simplify complex concepts for finance and non‑finance stakeholders
- High attention to detail with the ability to identify patterns, trends and anomalies
- Collaborative leadership style and ability to influence outcomes without formal authority
