• Working in Xero and other cloud accounting platforms
• Supporting partners on tax planning and structuring work as you grow

What you'll bring

• Around 3–6 years' Australian public practice experience
• Solid experience with financial statements and tax returns across companies, trusts and individuals
• A strong grounding in Australian tax, including Division 7A, trust distributions, CGT, GST and BAS
• Confidence with Xero and cloud accounting software
• Comfort dealing directly with clients, plus strong communication skills
• Sharp attention to detail and a habit of owning your work
• CA/CPA qualified, or currently completing your studies (preferred)

What we offer

• One day off per month of additional leave, increasing to a 9-day fortnight on full pay on completion of probation.
  
• Hybrid work: two days in the office, three from home
• Support for your CA/CPA studies through financial assistance
• A great CBD location on Pitt Street, a short walk from Wynyard and Martin Place train and metro stations
• A friendly, social team with quarterly functions and a relaxed office atmosphere
• A clear path forward into a senior, client-facing role
