Summary Generated by Built In

If you live in Australia or New Zealand, you’ve likely heard of AMP. But at a time when society is changing, we are too. We’re now a nimbler business with new leadership and thinking. 

For us, these are exciting times. There’s a real potential for big thinkers to help us redefine what financial services could be. And turn our legacy into something even more positive and powerful for the future.

Help people create their tomorrow, while you create yours

We help people with their banking, super, retirement and finances. Through upturns, downturns, recessions, and major life transitions. Every day, we help people see and make more of their financial potential, so that they can create their tomorrow. And we’ve been doing it for over 170 years. 

If we do our job well, we genuinely add to the prosperity of our country and its people. 

How you’ll make an impact

This role is ideal for a finance professional with excellent accounting and reporting experience who is now looking to step into a project‑focused finance environment.

The purpose of the role is to support AMP’s Transformation Portfolio by ensuring effective financial management, accurate forecasting and strong commercial governance across projects, helping the organisation make smarter investment decisions and manage project costs with discipline. You’ll play a key role in managing project financials, supporting decision‑making and shaping the commercial outcomes of AMP’s broader transformation agenda.

  • Partner with project teams to manage budgets, forecasts and actuals 
  • Track, analyse and challenge project spend to identify risks and opportunities 
  • Provide clear financial insights to improve decision‑making across value streams 
  • uplift financial capability across the portfolio and simplify finance processes 
  • Contribute to Agile and PMO reporting structures as AMP evolves its governance model 

What you’ll bring

  • A solid background in finance with excellent analytical and reporting skills
  • Experience supporting project financials or interest in stepping deeper into project cost management 
  • CPA/CA qualified or actively working toward completion 
  • Comfortable working in evolving environments; experience with Agile or PMO processes is a plus 

Why this role is great for you

  • Because you’re curious, analytical and passionate about transformation, you’ll:
  • Gain deeper exposure to PMO, governance frameworks, financial reporting methodologies & portfolio insights
  • Work in a supportive environment where your commercial thinking and ideas genuinely get supported
  • Develop broader project capability while staying connected to your core accounting & finance skills
  • Learn from senior leaders who invest in your growth
  • Build experience across business cases, Agile funding models, portfolio prioritisation and strategic investment decisions 

Who you are

You’re an established finance professional with strong foundations in accounting, commercial analysis or financial reporting, now ready to apply your skills in a project‑driven environment. You’re confident managing budgets, understanding cost drivers and working with financial data to support accurate forecasting and informed decisions.

You communicate clearly, enjoy partnering with project teams and feel comfortable challenging assumptions when something doesn’t look right. You’re adaptable, solutions‑focused and motivated to grow your experience across project finance, PMO processes and portfolio reporting — contributing to better financial outcomes across AMP’s transformation agenda.

You’ll thrive here if…

If you can adapt from BAU to the ambiguous with ease, you’ll do well here. Change is never easy, so bring your commitment, grit and growth mindset.

Because we run lean, you’ll be expected to jump in and deliver across a variety of areas. Meaning, you’ll be closer to the action and executive decisions that influence where we go next.

If you’re someone that can hold their own, you’ll find AMP quite liberating. 

Why we think you’ll love working at AMP

Doing what we’ve always done is not an option, so your clever ideas will get airtime here. You’ll be encouraged to speak up and try new things. If they don’t work, we move on – better for it.

We know there’s no one way of doing things. So, you won’t have to sacrifice who you are or how you work to fit in here. We’re inclusive and flexible in many of the ways you’d expect. And in some of the ways you wouldn’t. As long as your health and wellbeing come first - at home and at work. 

In fact, most of what makes AMP such a welcoming, enjoyable place to work are our people. Wherever you go, you’ll find moments to connect, feel valued and do meaningful work. 

Whether it’s through our first-class leaders who are invested in you and your success. Through year-round opportunities to volunteer, fundraise and give back to the community. Or in the everyday challenges you face as we work together to strengthen this great organisation. Challenges that will stretch you, amplify your potential and compound the impact you have. 

We believe in the power of inclusion and diversity

We’re dedicated to fostering inclusion, diversity, and a warm feeling of belonging at AMP. It sparks creativity, ignites innovation, and turns up the dial on the quality of our decisions and performance. This not only makes our workplace more engaged, but also leads to better connections with our customers. 

We're your allies in the search for the perfect fit - when you apply, let us know how we can support you to put your best self forward during our selection process. 

We're also committed to enhancing employment opportunities for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people, so we enthusiastically encourage candidates from these backgrounds to apply and explore our Reconciliation Plan on our website

Ready to create your tomorrow?

If you’re someone who sees opportunity where others see challenge, come and work with us in smart, progressive ways as we transform an iconic Australian brand for the future. And, through a series of career-defining moments, create your own tomorrow.

Don’t procrastinate! We review applications when we get them, and if we discover the ideal candidate, we may close the role earlier than the advertised close date.
