Job Description
What you’ll do…
- Set up the finance function for a brand-new hotel – chart of accounts, USALI reporting, controls, systems and the team.
- Take ultimate responsibility for accurate records, statutory accounts and reporting; the hotel is self-accounting.
- Own Australian tax and statutory compliance – GST and BAS, FBT, payroll tax, STP, superannuation and the annual audit.
- Lead planning, budgeting and forecasting, and partner the GM on strategy, value opportunities and owner reporting.
- Lead, develop and inspire a high-quality finance team.
What we’re looking for…
Individuals. You’re looking for a place where you can be you; no clones in suits here. You leave your ego at the door, you’re up for doing things differently, and you want to be part of a team that works hard, supports each other and has fun along the way.
- Five plus years of hotel finance experience, ideally already as Financial Controller or Director of Finance.
- CA or CPA qualified, with strong current knowledge of the Australian tax and statutory environment.
- Pre-opening or new-build experience – you’ve set a finance function up, not just inherited one.
- Technical depth across compliance, hotel operations and standard systems.
- Methodical and process-driven, but flexible and creative when it comes to deadlines and solutions.
What’s in it for you…
- The chance to open the first Hoxton in Australia – a genuine once-in-a-career project.
- Peep, our Ennismore team perks platform – discounted stays and dining across The Hoxton, Ennismore and the wider Accor family, plus everyday lifestyle offers.
- Four weeks’ annual leave plus Victorian public holidays, and super on top.
- Food on us during your shift, and a free night at The Hoxton with a meal for two when you start.
- Training and ongoing development that sets you up to think, make and thrive.
- Hox Hero and Nifty Fifty rewards, paid time off to volunteer with our partner charities, and regular team get togethers – from High Fives to our (pretty special!) team parties.
You must have the right to live and work in Australia. We’re an equal opportunity employer – tell us if you need any adjustments to the process.
