This is a global role that will provide you with access to key leaders across the finance function which will allow you to make an impact.
As the WiseTech Global Group is constantly growing and acquiring new businesses, there is a need to strengthen and scale up our finance integration process to support its growth.
As a newly created role within the finance team, you will partner closely with various teams within WTG (M&A, Controllership, FP&A, Transactional accounting, Tax) to execute integration projects across our portfolio of acquisitions.

This is a global role that will provide you with access to key leaders across the finance function which will allow you to make an impact. The role will be based out of Sydney but will be required to work with all our offices including the 40+ acquisitions made since IPO.
