Kilara Capital is a deal origination and investment management business focused on the food industry supply chain, natural resource management and the development of energy services for these sectors in Australia. Impact investment verticals they focus on include sustainable aquaculture, renewable energy infrastructure, energy tech, green buildings and cities, regenerative agriculture & horticulture, and sustainable food production.
Kilara’s vision is to create and invest in deeply sustainable businesses and projects across these sectors, all of which assist to drive the transition to a zero-carbon economy and create financial, environmental, and social returns for its investor base.
As a private family office, they are a small team doing amazing things in an intimate working environment, where respect and commitment to the work and each other, is essential.
As the CFO for 5 Pillars and Kilara Capital, your time will be split between both businesses where your work will pivot from some of the more basic functions to complex investment fund accounting and everything in between.
This role will suit someone from a professional services background who has a deep understanding of investment funds, an interest in ethical investment, likes to be both hands on and strategic, and with a flair for entrepreneurial thinking.
