Proven senior leadership and people management experience
Services industry experience non-negotiable
Strong M&A exposure
Board of Directors experience
Deep understanding of multi-entity consolidated reporting
Commercial, decisive, influential, not just technically brilliant

This isn’t a “keep-the-lights-on” CFO role. This is strategy, scale, risk and reward, wrapped in a fast-moving tourism powerhouse. If you’re ready to fly executive class and set the flight plan, we should talk!
