Job description

Senior Accountant – Business Advisory

  • $90k–$110k + Super
  • Hybrid working & flexi hours
  • Clear Progression
 

Are you a Senior Accountant who enjoys more than just compliance?
This is a genuine advisory-focused role with a well-established Brisbane accounting firm that’s investing heavily in its business advisory offering.

If you’re currently doing the work of a senior but not getting the exposure, trust, or progression you want — this one’s worth a look.

 

The Firm

This mid-tier style firm has built a strong reputation across Brisbane for working closely with SMEs, business owners, and high-net-worth individuals. Advisory isn’t an afterthought here — it’s a core part of how they operate.

You’ll work directly with managers and partners who actively mentor, delegate properly, and involve seniors in real client conversations.

 

The Role

As a Senior Accountant, you’ll manage your own client portfolio while playing a key role in advisory and value-add work.

Your responsibilities will include:

  • Preparing and reviewing financial statements and income tax returns
  • Providing business advisory services to SME clients
  • Assisting clients with structuring, tax planning, and cash flow management
  • Budgeting, forecasting, and management reporting
  • Identifying advisory opportunities and contributing to client strategy
  • Direct client contact and relationship management
  • Mentoring and reviewing work of junior accountants
This is a role where you’ll be trusted with clients, not shielded from them.

 

What We’re Looking For

  • CA or CPA qualified (or close to completion)
  • 3–6+ years’ experience in Australian public practice
  • Strong technical skills across tax and business services
  • Genuine interest in advisory and client strategy
  • Confident communicator who enjoys working with business owners
  • Experience with Xero, MYOB, BGL or similar cloud platforms
 

What’s On Offer

  • Competitive salary package based on experience
  • Clear pathway to Assistant Manager / Manager
  • Advisory exposure from day one
  • Hybrid working and flexible hours
  • Supportive, down-to-earth leadership
  • Modern systems and streamlined processes
  • Social, professional, and collaborative team culture
 

Why This Role?

✔ Advisory-focused senior accountant position
✔ Direct client exposure
✔ Clear progression, not empty promises
✔ Brisbane-based firm with strong growth plans
