Maroochydore, Queensland, Australia Hardy Advisory Co Full time $45,000 - $65,000 per year

Reception & Client Services Support – Sunshine Coast Accounting Firm

We're on the hunt for a friendly, organised all-rounder who loves getting things done behind the scenes. If you're someone who enjoys variety, takes pride in supporting a team to ensure it keeps running smoothly, and wants to be part of a genuinely great small office — this could be the role for you.

We're a well-established but growing accounting firm on the Sunshine Coast. We've got a cracking team, an exceptional small-business-focused client base, and we look after around 200+ family groups (95%+ business owners). When our books are open we only take on referrals — so our clients are loyal, easy to work with, and value what we do.

We're busy, growing, and need someone who wants to work hard, have a laugh, and make a big impact by providing invaluable support across the team.

The role

You'll be the first point of contact for our clients and the go-to support for our accountants. Because we're a small team, this role covers a bit of everything — from being the friendly face at reception to providing admin and client support behind the scenes.

Day to day, that means:

  • Greeting clients and managing phones, emails and appointments
  • Assisting with document preparation, lodgements and general office administration
  • Keeping client records up to date and office systems running smoothly
  • Maintaining office spaces such as the kitchen, stationery and records
  • Helping out wherever needed to keep the team on track

Who you are personally

You'll fit right in if:

  • You're organised, reliable, and love keeping things running smoothly.
  • You're a people person — friendly, approachable, and happy to help clients and your team.
  • You take pride in supporting others and making a real impact behind the scenes.
  • You're observant and detail-oriented, which means you can stay one step ahead, keep the office ticking, and spot opportunities to make things better.
  • You communicate clearly, whether it's answering a client question, coordinating appointments, or keeping the team in the loop.
  • You enjoy variety — no two days are the same, and you like having a hand in lots of different tasks.
  • You're happy to roll up your sleeves, tackle challenges, and take ownership of your work.

Why work for Hardy Advisory?…

We're a small, tight-knit team of eight — no drama, no politics, just a group of people who work hard and genuinely enjoy each other's company.

Here's what makes working with us a little different:

  • Location perks: our office is just a street from the beach — perfect for a before work swim or an afternoon stroll
  • Eats: a handful of great local cafés nearby for your coffee obsession (or avocado toast)
  • Stay active: Gyms and Pilates studios are close by, plus our regular team walks to stretch the legs, breathe fresh air, and have a laugh
  • Celebrate together: your birthday, end-of-year Christmas party and end-of-financial-year team retreat (most recent retreat - The Brisbane Star Grand)
  • Flexibility & growth: we're open to full-time or part-time arrangements and want someone who can grow with us while making a real impact in the team

It's more than a job — it's a place where your contribution matters, your input is valued, and work doesn't feel like work.
