Let’s take care of work that matters - people, place and purpose. From roads to recycling to reporting, everyone at WM New Zealand (WM) helps take care of our people, protect our whenua and support our communities.
We’re more than waste management – we’re problem solvers, innovators, and hands-on doers. Every one of us, whether behind the wheel, on the tools, or shaping strategy behind the scenes, is helping build a better Aotearoa.
We all pull together on this waka and if you want work that matters, with people who’ve got your back, you’re in the right place.
We’re looking for a commercially minded Commercial Business Partner to support our WM South leadership team and help shape financial and commercial outcomes.
In this role, you’ll work closely with operational leaders, translating business needs into clear financial insights, models, and recommendations. You’ll be involved in budgeting, forecasting, pricing, performance analysis, and investment decisions - with real visibility of how your work impacts the business.
This is an excellent opportunity for an ambitious accounting profession looking to deepen their commercial experience and progress their career within a large, values-driven organisation.
This role offers a blend of commercial partnering and core finance responsibilities. It is suited to someone who is commercially curious, enjoys solving complex business problems, and is motivated by influencing outcomes rather than simply reporting the numbers. We are looking for a self-starter who isn't afraid to challenge assumptions, ask questions, and help drive better business performance.
