Job Description

Your career path could surprise even you, there's so much variety.

You'll make a tangible impact on the people of NSW, using your finance and accounting skills to help build a sustainable and thriving transport network for generations to come.

In this role, you'll:

Join the Transport for NSW (TfNSW) Financial Control team, supporting a diverse and complex Transport portfolio.

With guidance and support, you’ll gain hands on experience across core financial control activities, including:

• Assisting with the preparation of financial and statutory reports

• Completing balance sheet reconciliations and maintaining clear, accurate supporting documentation

• Reviewing transactions to ensure financial information is recorded correctly in the systems

• Identifying discrepancies or reconciling items, raising questions, and escalating issues when needed

You’ll also support month end processes, such as journals and inter agency reconciliations, and help manage reconciliation tools (without needing to be a system specialist).

You’ll work closely with stakeholders across the organisation, developing a strong understanding of financial governance, controls, and reporting in a large public sector environment.
