Descrizione del lavoro

ASSEMBLE has been engaged to recruit a Senior Accountant or Supervisor for a rapidly growing boutique accounting and advisory firm based near Miami on the Gold Coast. They currently have a team of 6 and services a broad range of SMEs and some larger national clients.

This is an opportunity to join a modern practice that is moving away from the traditional accounting firm model, with a strong focus on providing commercial, tax and advisory support to business owners rather than simply handling their compliance.

With that growth comes an opportunity for an experienced Business Services professional to step into a key position within the business and take ownership of the day-to-day operation of the accounting team.

The Opportunity

Working directly alongside the Director, you will take responsibility for managing workflow across the Business Services & Tax division and ensuring client work moves efficiently through the practice.

The Director has a strong technical tax background and is heavily involved in bringing new work into the business. This role has therefore been created for someone who can take ownership of the operational side of the practice managing workflow, deadlines, staff and client delivery while helping improve the systems and processes required to support further growth.

More important is your ability to lead a team, stay across multiple jobs and deadlines, manage WIP and ensure the practice runs efficiently.

Your responsibilities will include:

• Managing workflow, scheduling, job allocation and lodgement deadlines across the team
• Supervising and developing accountants within the Business Services division
• Reviewing work and ensuring jobs progress efficiently through the practice
• Managing WIP, budgets, billing, recoveries and debtors
• Monitoring team performance and assisting with workload planning
• Acting as a key point of contact for clients and managing expectations around delivery
• Improving internal systems, processes and practice management procedures
• Working closely with the Director on more complex technical matters and new client onboarding
• Supporting the continued growth of the firm and getting involved in business development where desired

About You

This position would suit an experienced Senior Accountant or Supervisor from an australian public practice environment who enjoys the operational and people‑management side of accounting.

You will ideally have:

• Strong Australian Business Services & Tax experience
• Previous experience supervising or managing accounting staff
• Experience managing workflow and competing client deadlines
• A good understanding of WIP, billing, budgets and recoveries
• Strong client management and communication skills
• CA/CPA qualifications or be working towards them
• Experience with Xero and modern practice management systems

Above all, they are looking for someone organised and commercially minded who wants to play an important role in the continued development of the business.

What's On Offer

• $100,00 to $140,000 + Super, with flexibility for the right person
• Genuine progression as the firm continues to grow
• Direct access to and mentoring from an experienced technical Director
• Opportunity to have a real influence over how the practice operates
• Exposure to business development and new client acquisition
• Flexible working environment / flexible start and finish times
• Young, down-to-earth team without unnecessary hierarchy or micromanagement
• Monthly team long lunches when business targets are achieved
• Modern firm with a strong pipeline of new clients and continued growth ahead

This isn't a role where you'll simply inherit a portfolio and sit behind a desk completing compliance work.

It's an opportunity to become a key part of a growing accounting firm, take ownership of its day-to-day operation and develop your position as the business continues to scale.
