To thrive in this role, you’ll have:

- Demonstrated leadership experience, either formally or informally.
- The ability and desire to grow and mentor a thriving team.
- Well honed commercial acumen, with the ability to interpret and communicate financial reports and documentation.

- A commitment to truly connect with those around you and work together, to deliver exceptional results for our clients.
- The passion, motivation and enthusiasm to contribute to our culture, and ensure it’s a place where everyone can thrive.
- An innate ability to question, challenge the status quo and always stay ahead of the pack.
At Shine, purpose really matters.
- It’s our clients, who summon the courage to stand up to injustice.
- It’s the communities we are part of and support every day.
- It’s our team, who champion what’s right and make this place what it is.
Here are some of the things we hope you’ll love about working with us:
- Connect and be you: Get the flexibility and benefits you need, and work alongside truly authentic people who care so much - about the clients, Shine and you.
- Challenge and be challenged: We’re not here for “easy”. We want you to take your place at Shine and make a real impact. Question and challenge - that’s how we grow.
- Achieve and grow: Find an immediate connection and be set up for success. Be guided by experienced leaders who will back you every step of the way.
