Commercial Finance Manager

Mamamia is Australia's largest independent women's media group and our core purpose is to make the world a better place for women and girls. We reach seven and a half million women each month across written, video and social platforms and we have the largest women's podcast network in the world with 55 different shows.

We are looking for a Commercial Finance Manager to join our team as the CFO's right-hand operator and the senior finance presence across the business. In this role, you will lead commercial analysis and business partnering, own the month-end close, compliance, and treasury, and manage our offshore AP/AR team. You will play a vital role in powering our growth by collaborating with cross-functional leadership, bringing clarity to financial decision-making, and driving continuous improvement in a fast-paced, purpose-driven environment.

Located in Sydney, this position is available as a part-time opportunity (~0.8 FTE), which can be structured across 4 days (with Fridays off) or shortened hours across 5 days.

Here's some of the stuff you can expect to be doing if you join us:

• Build and maintain business-unit P&Ls, resourcing, and cost allocations to empower business leaders
• Lead the annual budget process, roll-forwards, and ongoing budget-vs-actual analysis
• Act as a true finance partner to technology, operations, commercial, and content leads
• Coordinate sales targets, commission structures, and deliver insightful commercial analysis for SLT/ELT and board reporting
• Own the month-end close timetable, balance sheet reconciliations, provisions, and accounting policy governance
• Manage year-end statutory reporting, income tax returns, FBT, R&D tax incentives, and statutory compliance
• Monitor cash positions, manage treasury administration, liquidity forecasting, and corporate expense card programs
• Own the finance tech stack, manage the offshore AP/AR team, and oversee payroll and payments

Now, a Bit About You

• Strong FP&A and commercial modeling skills, including P&L builds, cost allocation, and budgeting
• Proven ability to business-partner with non-finance stakeholders and confidently present insights to leadership
• Experience managing, supporting, and overseeing work completed by offshore processing teams
• Tech-savvy with experience in Xero, Employment Hero, ApprovalMax, Google Suite, and Monday CRM, with a curiosity for leveraging AI tools like Claude and Gemini
• A proactive, autonomous operator who thrives in a lean, dynamic, and fast-paced team environment
• High attention to detail with strong commercial acumen and a passion for continuous process improvement
• Aligned with our mission and excited to make a genuine, tangible impact in a purpose-led media organization

We're fast-paced and innovative, with a collaborative culture when it comes to industry-leading strategies and ideas.

We're small enough that you can create real and tangible change, and have your voice heard, and large enough that we can support your ideas with experienced, industry-leading teams, and deliver them to an audience of millions of women every month. We have a startup spirit within a scaled-up business structure.

The core purpose of Mamamia is to make the world a better place for women and girls, and we live this philosophy in the content we create and with the work we do. While our core purpose informs every business and content decision we make, we execute on our purpose in a way that's engaging, entertaining and adds meaning and value to the lives of Australian women.

We're passionate about embracing AI and technology in our creative process, constantly exploring new ways to enhance storytelling and connect with our audience - we're excited for you to join us on this innovative journey.
