Australia The Accounting Academy Pty Limited Full time $90,000 - $160,000 per year

Who the f@#k is The Accounting Academy?

Our mission is to educate. To educate the next generation of accountants. To educate our clients on what the hell is going on and help them understand their business, grow it, maintain it, expand, acquire and retire.

We're looking for a Senior Tax Accountant to join us and take the lead on reviewing returns. This isn't a role for juniors or people without the required experience. You must have real Australian public practice experience, with minimum 5 years in the trenches. If you know your way around company, trust, individual, and SMSF returns, and you're sick of the old-school ways, read on.

What you'll be doing:

  • Reviewing tax returns and BAS.
  • Giving constructive feedback that helps the team learn & grow.
  • Making sure we tick all the boxes with the ATO and TPB (because nobody wants a please explain letter and we take this stuff seriously, but we'll make it painless).
  • Ensuring compliance with internal policies and procedures (and helping to shape them if you want).
  • Playing a key role in shaping the next generation of tax professionals.

What you'll need:

  • Minimum 5 years Australian public practice experience (non-negotiable).
  • Strong knowledge of income tax, BAS, and compliance.
  • Hands-on with Xero and the Xero Suite (Practice Manager, Workpapers, Xero Tax).
  • Tax Agent licence desirable (or eligibility).
  • Ability to explain the "why" and "how," not just tick boxes.

Why join us:

You won't be grinding out endless returns. You'll be a leader, a mentor, and a guide. Your expertise won't be lost in a sea of data entry. Instead, you'll be the one shaping our approach to tax, helping us build a smarter system, not just a harder-working one.

This role starts at 10 hours per week (part-time), with the potential to grow as we do. You'll be part of a team that's rethinking how accountants are trained and supported, all within a flexible, collaborative environment where your expertise actually matters.
