Senior Accountant

We're a small but ambitious practice, building from the ground up with intention and care. The firm is led by a principal with mid-tier taxation advisory training, complemented by further experience in commercial roles and smaller firms. This mix has shaped a broad, practical approach that our clients rely on — not just for compliance, but for support in building and sustaining successful businesses.

We're looking for a capable and values-aligned
Senior Accountant
to join our team and take on a broad, hands-on role. The person who joins us now will help shape our future and will play a meaningful part in developing our systems, processes, and client relationships.

If you enjoy variety, autonomy, and being part of a supportive, collaborative environment — and you're the kind of person who gets satisfaction from doing great work that actually helps people — we'd love to hear from you.

About the Role

This role is ideal for someone who is technically strong, proactive, and solutions-focused. You'll be working directly with senior leadership and clients, handling a wide variety of work, and contributing to the evolution of a growing practice.

This role is ideal if you're returning to work, tired of big-firm pressures, or prefer staying hands-on with the work rather than managing people.

• Bookkeeping and account reconciliation
• BAS preparation and lodgement
• Financial statements and income tax return preparation
• Assisting with payroll tax, QBCC, FBT and other ad hoc compliance tasks
• Assisting with tax planning, management reporting and other business advisory services
• Liaising with clients to answer queries and provide professional support
• Collaborate with leadership on process improvements and growth

• 4+ years' experience in Australian public practice (firm size doesn't matter)
• Strong generalist background across a range of services and client types
• Experience with more complex tax areas including Capital Gains Tax, Division 7A, and trust taxation
• Proficiency in accounting software (e.g. Xero preferred) and advanced Excel skills
• Right to work in Australia without sponsorship requirements

Skills & Attributes

• Highly organised and self-managing
• Sharp attention to detail
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills
• Willing to help out wherever needed
• Genuine interest in professional and personal growth
• Passionate about doing meaningful work with good people

Flexible Working Arrangements

• Open to both full-time or part-time arrangements — let's chat about what works for you

Why Join Us?

• Genuine opportunity to shape and grow with a boutique practice
• Friendly, down-to-earth team with shared values
• No rigid hierarchy or red tape — just good people doing good work
• A role where your contribution truly matters
