Job description

Senior Accountant | Business Services

$90,000 + Super, Brisbane CBD Office

An excellent opportunity has become available for an experienced Senior Accountant to join the Business Services team of a highly regarded national accounting and advisory firm in Brisbane.

This is a great move for someone who enjoys the technical side of Business Services but also wants more client interaction, advisory exposure and a clear pathway forward.

You’ll be joining a well-established firm with a strong reputation in the Australian market, modern Brisbane CBD offices and a genuinely supportive culture. The firm places a real emphasis on professional development, mentoring and giving people the opportunity to progress based on performance and potential.

The Role

Working with a varied portfolio of businesses and private clients, your responsibilities will include:

• Preparing financial statements and income tax returns
• Working across companies, trusts, partnerships and individuals
• Preparing BAS, IAS and other compliance requirements
• Tax planning and general taxation advice
• Management reporting and year-end work
• Assisting clients with day‑to‑day accounting and business matters
• Building strong relationships and communicating directly with clients
• Identifying opportunities to provide additional commercial and advisory support
• Assisting and mentoring junior team members
• Working closely with Managers and Partners on more complex client matters

Importantly, this is not a purely compliance‑focused position. There is plenty of opportunity to build your commercial skills, work directly with clients and develop into a trusted advisor.

About You

We’re looking for someone who has:

• Around 3-5+ years’ experience within Australian Public Practice
• Strong Business Services and taxation experience
• Experience preparing financial statements and tax returns
• Good knowledge of Australian taxation and compliance requirements
• CA/CPA qualification completed or underway
• Strong written and verbal communication skills
• Confidence dealing directly with clients
• A genuine interest in progressing their career within Public Practice

Why Consider This Firm?

This is a particularly good option for someone who has perhaps outgrown a smaller firm, or wants the resources and opportunities of a larger practice without losing the supportive team environment.

The firm offers structured learning and development, mentoring, flexible working arrangements and opportunities to work across a broad mix of quality clients. They also offer additional paid leave days and recognise additional hours through matched‑time arrangements.

You’ll benefit from:

• $90,000 + Super
• Flexible / hybrid working arrangements
• Modern Brisbane CBD office
• Genuine progression opportunities
• Structured professional development and mentoring
• Exposure to high‑quality and diverse clients
• Direct interaction with clients from an early stage
• Supportive and down‑to‑earth team culture
• Additional employee benefits and wellbeing initiatives
• The resources and opportunities that come with a national accounting and advisory firm

Interested? If you’re currently working within Business Services and feel ready for greater exposure, stronger career development or simply a better firm environment, we’d be happy to have a confidential conversation.
