ABOUT THE FIRM

My client is a boutique accounting firm, located in the South East suburbs of Brisbane. If you are an experienced accountant looking to develop your accounting career without having to commute to the CBD, this may be the ideal role for you.

What makes these guys different to your typical accounting firm?

They are extremely client focused and relationship driven

They focus on providing the best possible service to existing clients through value add services and a high level of involvement

Their work culture is amazing where the Directorsput in extreme efforts to ensure a positive and fun working environment at all times

They hire on culture fit more than technical fit a lot of the time

W/L balance is very important

They have a monthly reward system for team building events – in the past they have travelled interstate as a team

There are no claw-backs for professional fees paid on your behalf

Their client base ranges from successful SME's through to complex group structures across a broad industry base including building and construction, property, architects, engineering and medical.

They view tax and compliance as a key service but what they really enjoy is the value add aspect -financial forecasting, interim reporting, business advice, strategic consulting and all staff are trained and mentored in those areas.

You will experience a sense of client ownership and have true ability to proactively manage your client set with a holistic view with the support of the firm leaders.

The Directors are very technically astute so they serve as excellent mentors - and in general they are down to earth and genuinely supportive people who care about their staff.

You’ll work autonomously in managing your own set of clients and will report directly to the Directors.

Other points to consider:

Opportunity for growth - if you are seeking that next step this is ideal

Client contact from the outset

Modern IT systems - Cloud based firm (Xero)

Flexible hours can be arranged to accommodate for family commitments if required

Overtime is discouraged - work/life balance is really important!

Car parking available

Lots of social events including:

Planned quarterly dinner

EOFYfunction

Soft skills every other Friday - non accounting related! (Sales, mindset, wellbeing etc)

ABOUT YOU

The ideal candidate will possess the following attributes:

CA or CPA in training (ideal but not required)

2+ years' experience in public practice accounting and tax

Willingness to continue learning and developing skillset

A culture like this is a rare find along with ongoing technical development (better than many larger firms), access to some really decent clients and the ability to service them in a non-traditional accounting way.

NB: Only successful candidates will be contacted.
