Do you want to apply your consulting experience in a more strategic, client-focused setting? Join our client’s high-performing Sydney-based team and make a tangible impact helping organisations navigate the evolving landscape of sustainability and climate-related reporting.
About the Opportunity
This is a client-facing consulting role, focused on delivering sustainability and climate-related financial reporting engagements. You’ll work closely with a cross-disciplinary team to help clients address climate risk, comply with evolving standards, and improve sustainability reporting processes.
The Advisory Team is focused on the provision of subject-matter reporting and finance function advisory to existing and new clients. As part of this broader team, you’ll contribute to outcomes across carbon accounting, sustainability/climate reporting, finance system change, strategic accounting, transaction readiness, and financial governance advisory.
This role offers a clear pathway to Director for the right individual.

Scenario analysis, governance, and data transformation

-
Engage with senior executives, including C-suite and Boards, to ensure delivery of tailored, practical solutions aligned with business strategy and reporting requirements.

Collaborate with other internal teams on cross-functional projects, including finance function transformation and strategic accounting.
-
Apply project management methodologies to drive high-quality, timely outcomes.

Maintain quality and compliance standards in sustainability services.
What We’re Looking For

Strong familiarity with sustainability reporting frameworks – ideally with direct experience in TCFD and/or IFRS S2 gap analysis and roadmap development.
-
Broad knowledge across the reporting value chain – from data capture and systems through to governance and strategy.
