Description

The OpportunityWe're looking for a tech-savvy, CA or CPA qualified accountant with experience gained in a business advisory or public practice environment to join our team. You'll work directly alongside a forward-thinking principal across the entire client portfolio, not siloed into one narrow function — giving you exposure to compliance, advisory, structuring and client relationship management all at once. It's a genuinely collaborative environment, with real opportunities to shape how the practice runs and to grow your own experience faster than you might in a larger firm.

Visa sponsorship available. If you've built your experience in business advisory overseas and are CA or CPA qualified, we're genuinely open to sponsoring the right candidate and they'll invest in training you up on the Australian-specific technical areas (tax law, trusts and family group structures) rather than expecting you to arrive already across every local nuance.This role suits someone who wants more autonomy and more client-facing responsibility than a typical mid-tier role offers, without sacrificing support, the principal is actively involved and accessible day to day.

  • What You'll Be DoingManaging your own portfolio of clients directly, ranging from small owner-operated businesses
  • Acting as a trusted, day-to-day point of contact for clients, building relationships that go beyond transactional compliance work
  • Managing competing deadlines and priorities across a varied portfolio, keeping both clients and the principal informed on status and issues
  • Supervising and reviewing the work of two offshore team members based in the Philippines
  • Approximately 80% of routine compliance preparation is completed offshore, with your role centred on technical review, quality control, coaching, and ensuring everything is accurate and client-ready before it goes out the door, effectively the remaining 20% of the work, but the most critical 20%
  • Providing feedback and on-the-job training to the offshore team to continually lift the standard and consistency of their work
  • Review and, where needed, hands-on completion of BAS, IAS, FBT and SMSF obligations
  • Annual compliance work and income tax returns across a range of entity types


  • About YouCA or CPA qualified
  • Prior experience in a business advisory or public practice environment — locally or overseas; this is not an entry-level or graduate role
  • Comfortable taking ownership of managing and reviewing the work of offshore team members, including giving clear, constructive feedback
  • Strong client management skills, confident communicating directly with clients, the ATO and ASIC, and comfortable being a client's main point of contact rather than working purely behind the scenes
  • A genuine interest in staying on top of tax law and legislative changes, if you've worked overseas, they'll train you on the Australian-specific detail (income tax, GST, FBT, trusts and family group structures)
  • Practical experience with cloud and desktop accounting software, including Xero and MYOB — you should be comfortable and confident, not just familiar
