GHD Graduate Program 2026/27 – Finance Systems (Business/Finance/IT) (Melb/Syd)

We’re GHD.

We don’t do hair. But we do straighten out some of the world’s biggest challenges.

We’re engineers, scientists, designers, architects, planners, advisors, innovators and change makers, committed to making energy, water and communities sustainable for generations to come.

Since 1928, we’ve been wholly owned by our employees. Today, we are 11,000 diverse and skilled individuals working in over 160 offices across five continents — Asia, Australia, Europe, North and South America, and the Pacific region.

Who could you be at GHD?

Our Financial Systems team are looking to build the team with a new Graduate in 2027!  Coming with an academic background in Business/Finance, with either a double degree in IT, or some experience with technology & coding, you’ll also gain exposure to other parts of our corporate Finance team.

A little more about the team, and the role can be found below:

• The position will be based in either Sydney or Melbourne
• The Financial Systems teams splits across two key areas; Finance Analytics & ERP Support
• ERP Support helps to manage our project management and accounting platform from an application support perspective.  We define customisations and work with the development team to see the changes through.  BOTs, automation and customisations galore!
• Finance Analytics partners with the broader GHD business to develop application solutions for challenges faced by the organisation.  Think dashboards and financial models – we deliver it all.
• Whilst our software packages can be unique, if you have any coding or financial modelling experience, you’ll easily be able to apply your knowledge to your work in this team.

Our two-year Graduate Development Program is designed to give you a smooth start to your career, and you’ll be intertwined with all of our graduates across the APAC business. Alongside your peers, managers and mentors, we’ll help you detangle any challenges along the way.

GHD: The Power of Commitment

At GHD, we don’t just believe in the power of commitment, we live and breathe it every day. 

Community impact is important to us, influencing how we work, our projects and how we give back. Our GHD in the Community program partners with not-for-profit organisations so that we can work on pro-bono projects, as well as volunteering and fundraising for philanthropic and humanitarian causes. As a business, we also channel some of our profits into the GHD Foundation, a registered charity that addresses disadvantage and inequality in children accessing STEAM education in the countries where we live and work.

Within GHD, our employee groups and networks help us foster community, find our tribe, and celebrate what makes us unique. These groups play a big part in our global diversity, equity and inclusion strategy, creating spaces for meaningful and safe conversations, connecting with likeminded individuals, and creating a voice to leadership.
