This is a Finance Manager role with Co-Hive based in Alexandria, NSW, AU

Role Seniority - mid level

More About The Finance Manager Role At Co-Hive

Finance Manager

Salary: $100,800k-$134,400k incl. superannuation + Wellness Perks

Employment Arrangement: Full-Time

Location: Alexandria, Sydney

Reports to: Head of Systems and Finance

About Co-Hive

Co-Hive is a purpose-driven and fast-growing organisation based in Alexandria, Sydney, dedicated to supporting young adults with disability aged 17–35 as they transition from school to adult life. In just 18 months, Co-Hive has emerged as a game-changing service — winning “Best New Disability Service” at the Australian Disability Service Awards and gaining national recognition for doing things differently.

We’re here to fill a critical gap. Too often, young people with disability leave school full of dreams, but quickly lose direction as they face a system that isn’t built for them. Co-Hive is rewriting that story — helping participants build skills, confidence, and independence through hands-on, person-led programs that lead to real outcomes in open employment, social connection, and independent living.

Our model is bold, creative, and grounded in real relationships. We co-design every program with participants and their families and work closely with employers, educators, and community partners to build pathways that truly empower. Our work is guided by the core values of self-determination, inclusion, and possibility.

With strong demand and a growing reputation, Co-Hive is now preparing to expand across NSW and beyond. This is a rare opportunity to join a team at the forefront of change — and help shape the future of an organisation already making a profound difference in people’s lives.

About The Role

As our first dedicated Finance Manager, you’ll play a pivotal role in driving Co-Hive’s financial sustainability and scaling our systems for growth. You’ll be responsible for:

  • Financial oversight across all departments and programs
  • Strengthening our NDIS billing and invoicing processes
  • Supporting families with funding quotes and NDIS reviews
  • Managing grants and donations
  • Building internal capacity through clear systems and team development
  • Ensuring compliance and responsiveness in a rapidly evolving NDIS landscape

You’ll work closely with the Head of Systems and Finance, the Intake and Community Engagement Manager, and other cross-functional teams across the organisation. You’ll also be supported by a highly experienced fractional CFO, who will work with you on high-level planning, forecasting, and strategic decision-making as Co-Hive grows.

Key Responsibilities

NDIS Finance Leadership

  • Build strong relationships with NDIS Plan Managers, participants, families, and support networks to resolve billing and invoicing issues
  • Provide clear and timely quotes for NDIS reviews and changes of circumstances, working closely with the Intake and Community Engagement Manager
  • Stay up to date with NDIS pricing and policy changes, and implement updates immediately across internal systems and communications
  • Document and improve internal systems for claiming, invoicing, and financial tracking
  • Track individual participant budgets and funding usage to ensure accuracy and compliance

Financial Planning & Control

  • Lead monthly and quarterly financial reviews, reporting on revenue, costs, utilisation, and performance indicators
  • Deliver insightful financial reports and forecasts to inform strategic decision-making
  • Manage all accounts receivable and payable
  • Ensure accurate payroll processing in line with SCHADS Award requirements,
  • Ensure compliance with all financial regulations including BAS, FBT, AASB standards, and internal policies
  • Oversee and support external audits, grant acquittals, and financial reviews
  • Identify opportunities for automation and improved efficiency across financial operations

Grants & Donations Management

  • Manage the allocation and tracking of grant and philanthropic funds, ensuring transparent usage and timely reporting
  • Support the CEO and leadership team in ensuring funds align with program outcomes and participant impact

Collaboration & Capacity Building

  • Stay across all Co-Hive programs to confidently speak to invoicing, service delivery, and participant plans
  • Build financial understanding and capability across the wider team
  • Provide clear, solutions-focused communication to resolve queries from staff, families, and external providers
  • Contribute to a positive and efficient team culture by improving shared systems and documentation

Leadership & Team Oversight

  • Lead and support a small internal and offshore finance team
  • Model professionalism, integrity, and high standards
  • Collaborate with the fractional CFO to strengthen high-level financial strategy, planning, and risk management

About You – Skills & Experience

You are calm under pressure, solutions-oriented, and driven by a genuine desire to improve systems and support people. You combine a strong financial brain with an empathetic communication style and enjoy working at the intersection of people, process, and impact.

You Bring:

  • A bachelor’s degree in Accounting, Finance, or a related field (CA/CPA qualified or working towards)
  • 7+ years of experience in financial management, preferably in NDIS, disability, or funding-driven sectors
  • Exceptional communication and interpersonal skills — able to simplify complex financial issues for diverse audiences
  • Strong understanding of NDIS pricing arrangements, claiming requirements, and plan funding structures
  • Demonstrated leadership experience and a proactive, systems-focused approach
  • Experience managing grant funding and philanthropic contributions
  • Confidence in managing competing priorities and strict deadlines in a fast-moving organisation
  • Technical proficiency in Xero, Excel/Google Sheets, and financial reporting tools
  • Familiarity with payroll and compliance under the SCHADS Award
  • A passion for inclusion, autonomy, and real-world outcomes

Why Join Co-Hive?

  • Be part of an energetic, values-driven team that’s reimagining what’s possible for young adults with disability
  • Play a key leadership role in a fast-growing organisation committed to real, long-term impact
  • Work somewhere where your contribution directly transforms lives - not just delivers services
  • Enjoy above-Award wages, plus Wellness Perks to support your health and balance
  • Join a warm, close-knit culture that’s collaborative, courageous, and committed to inclusion
  • Step into a strategic, high-impact role with strong influence across the organisation
