• Financial Planning: Contribution to month-end activities, including support in producing budgets and monthly rolling forecasts for key business areas (e.g. Payroll & HR).

• Funding and Collections Support: Assisting with LTA’s facility funding initiatives and supporting the collection of club and coach loans.
Cross-Functional collaboration will be necessary by providing financial support to various operational and support areas within the organisation.
The position will have a key role in the continuous development of the Finance function itself, including maintenance, management and improvements to relevant files, processes, and systems in order to improve efficiency and accuracy.
