About the Firm

This mid to large accounting firm continues to grow organically and strategically, now employing around 60 people across Business Services, SMSF, Bookkeeping and support teams. The firm is led by 5 Equity Partners and 2 Principals, supported by strong management layers, onshore staff and experienced offshore staff who work almost as an extension of the onshore team, working with them side by side. 

The leadership team operates with transparency, clear communication, and a genuine open door approach. The firm has a refreshed mission and values, a clear growth strategy, and an active focus on innovation, including an AI project currently underway to complement Business Services.

Culture is a true strength. The environment is open, supportive and driven, where people are encouraged to ask questions, share ideas, and grow at their own pace. Development is individual-based, not title or tenure driven, and progression is clearly mapped across culture, client service and technical capability.

The firm places a real emphasis on connection and inclusion, from their annual formal Christmas celebration often held on a chartered boat, to their much loved fancy dress trivia night which gets seriously competitive. They balance this with family friendly initiatives like sausage sizzles and catered breakfasts, and underpin it all with a high level of transparency through monthly whole of firm presentations that openly share performance, priorities and direction.

You will: 

  • Work on a variety of clients across all different structures, and multi-entity groups
  • Maintain heavy client contact and act as a trusted point of contact
  • Prepare financial statements and tax returns across all entities
  • Be involved in advisory conversations alongside Partners and Managers & the advisory team 
  • Handle CGT and Division 7A matters within the compliance team
  • Operate with a self-review mindset, supported by structured review and training
Teams are well resourced with Managers, Assistant Managers, Seniors, Intermediates, Graduates and dedicated CSAs, allowing you to focus on value adding work rather than administration.
