Senior Accountant – Business Services & Tax Advisory

Join an AFR Top 20 firm with a strong global platform and a particularly dominant presence in the European market. This firm is known for valuing high performers and offering clear progression pathways for those aspiring to be future leaders. With a genuine focus on learning and development, they invest heavily in technical training and professional growth, ensuring their staff continue to expand their expertise and career opportunities.

The Role

As a Senior Accountant within the Business Services and Tax Advisory division, you will take ownership of a diverse portfolio of clients while providing hands-on support across compliance, tax, and advisory. This is an opportunity to step beyond the typical "compliance-only" environment and build technical breadth as well as client-facing experience.

Your responsibilities will include:

  • Managing your own client portfolio and acting as a key contact on tax and business advisory matters
  • Preparing and reviewing BAS, FBT returns, financial statements, and income tax returns for a range of structures
  • Liaising directly with the ATO and other regulatory bodies on client matters
  • Assisting with the preparation of tailored advice on tax and business issues
  • Coordinating, reviewing, and providing feedback on work prepared by junior staff and offshore teams
  • Leading and mentoring junior accountants, including delivering internal training and coaching sessions
  • Contributing to client updates, technical alerts, and internal knowledge sharing
  • Supporting Partners and Managers with a range of ad hoc advisory projects

What We're Looking For

To be considered, you must have:

  • Current or prior Australian public practice accounting experience
  • Proven Australian tax experience across compliance and advisory (essential)
  • A relevant degree in Accounting, Commerce, or Business
  • CA/CPA qualification (completed)
  • 3–4+ years' experience in business services, tax, or advisory
  • Experience with Xero, MYOB, APS or similar accounting systems
  • Strong technical knowledge, combined with excellent communication skills and a genuine ability to mentor junior staff

Preferred background:

This role will suit someone with Big 4 or large mid-tier experience seeking a stronger salary package and a new environment, or those from similar-sized firms looking for a progressive change of scene with clear career development.

Working Rights:

Please note this opportunity is only open to candidates with full and unrestricted Australian working rights. Visa sponsorship is not available.

Why Apply?

This is a chance to join one of Australia's most respected professional services firms with a truly global presence. You will be rewarded with a competitive salary package, ongoing professional development, and the opportunity to accelerate your career within a firm that takes your growth seriously.
