You’ll be working as part of the Group Finance Branch, playing an important role in Financial Accounting and Control.

You’ll lead the migration of Transport’s asset data into the new EAM system — a complex, high‑stakes project where accuracy, integrity and clarity matter. You’ll drive data cleansing, mapping, validation and reconciliation, bringing order to large and diverse datasets and ensuring they stand up to audit, policy and Treasury requirements.

You’ll work closely with finance, IT and operational teams to align system design with accounting standards and capitalisation rules, helping to build a system that works for financial reporting and real‑world asset management. You’ll guide testing, strengthen controls and keep stakeholders informed so the transition lands smoothly with minimal disruption.

About you


You bring strong technical depth in road‑infrastructure asset accounting, and you know how to manage and migrate complex asset data while staying aligned to standards, policy and compliance requirements. You’re analytical and detail‑focused, with a sharp eye for risks or data gaps before they become issues. You communicate clearly, collaborate naturally and can turn technical information into something people can actually use. You’re steady under pressure, organised, and experienced in system or data‑heavy projects where accuracy and deadlines are non‑negotiable.

You’ll also have a background in road infrastructure and the project management capability to deliver large‑scale data migration smoothly, confidently and with the right level of governance.

Essential requirements: Bachelor qualification in Accounting, Business, Economics or Commerce (or equivalent), extensive relevant experience, and full membership of a recognised professional accounting body.
