This unique opportunity will suit qualified, energetic Finance Directors who wish to work in a team-oriented, collegiate, dynamic business environment with other like-minded professionals, living the portfolio lifestyle while providing excellent levels of service to clients.

Backed by our world class marketing and business support functions and spreading their time across multiple clients, our CFOs/FDs tell us they feel they have greater 'job security' than they previously had working for a single company, and renewed energy working with fast-paced businesses where you can really make a difference.

Further Information

How does it work?

The role is self-employed, whilst operating within a defined model, combining the benefits of being part of a team and supported by a well-established organisation, but with a level of autonomy and freedom in how you deliver outcomes for clients.

You'll love the challenge, variety and interest of working for multiple clients and appreciate the flexibility this way of working provides. A great listener, and even better at asking great questions, at first you'll wake up every day and think "how do I build my portfolio today" and then as your portfolio builds think "how do I add value and do something special for my clients today?"

We're the Global Market leader of part-time Chief Finance Officer's services to mid-sized businesses. As we say, for those businesses that don't want, don't need and probably can't afford a full time CFO, yet who want access to that skillset on an affordable part-time basis.

Who are we?

We're 800 people, in 5 continents, across 17 countries, operating in all states of Australia. The CFO Centre was started to change the game for mid-tier businesses

You'll join a collective team of former CEOs, Executives, CFOs, FDs, and successful business owners who are considered as being at top of their game, and who have experienced success in their former lives.

We're the Avengers team of the financial strategy world, bringing together thousands of years of collective experience to supercharge our clients' businesses.

We're a movement of people that left 'corporate' seeking a freedom-based lifestyle. This isn't about slowing down en route to an early retirement. It's about doing something purposeful and dynamic, working hard and having the freedom and balance that full-time roles rarely provide. It's also about being the captain of your own ship. Freedom is loving what you do, and about having choice.

What do we do?

Our purpose is to "define and deliver the numbers that really matter". What does that mean? While most CFOs/FDs are taken on by companies to deliver the financial strategy, we go one step further and work with the business owners to really understand their 'why' (what we refer to as 'the numbers that really matter'). If we can understand their true motivation for being in business and what it is they really want, we can help define and deliver the strategy that delivers a life-changing outcome.

Here are a few comments from CFOs who have joined our team:

"If you love variety and working alongside entrepreneurs within a number of exciting businesses, you should certainly consider The CFO Centre"

"If you are thinking of join, just join You will have the work-life balance that you have craved and the opportunity to work with some amazing clients and help them on their journey."

Diane Leacock, CFO

"I decided that corporate roles were no longer for me, and before committing to The CFO Centre which has been able to offer not only a broad support network, but was a range of tools, resources and methodologies which could be used to add immediate value for clients."

"I really enjoy the flexibility that portfolio working offers, as well as the stimulation of working with different personalities across a variety of industries. I find I am able to add real value to my clients which is really appreciated by the business owners I work with, and I'm now working less hours, through choice, so that I have more time to spend with my family."
