A great Kiwi success story with really down-to-earth people who are genuinely proud of what they’ve built. Based in modern offices on the North Shore, they have a tight knit team where everyone mucks in and looking to raise funds. They’re growing, the work is interesting, and they’re now gearing up for a significant fund raise, which is where this project role fits in.
About the Role
This is a proper project role — not BAU, the current team are running the day to day so require support on this project. They need someone to come in and help lift their statutory reporting to the next level. The big focus is restating prior years into a higher reporting tier and making sure future statements are clean, consistent, and timely.
You’ll be working closely with the Finance team and external advisors. There’s also a solid due-diligence component around the fund raise, so accuracy, clarity, and confidence in the numbers are key.
