About This Role

Our audit process is more than a compliance measure. Our robust, independent audits deliver actionable insights and add substantial value for our clients.

• Create complete and accurate audit work papers.
• Identify and report on client financial risks.
• Expand your analytical skills to examine clients’ financial statements and ensure they comply with statutory requirements.
• Investigate difficult technical and application issues to improve client outcomes.
• Mentor and guide junior team members and contribute to their growth.

Skills & Experience

• Experience in a similar audit & assurance environment with sound knowledge of IFRS.
• CA/CPA full qualification or other relevant overseas qualification.
• Exceptional client relationship skills.
• Strong problem‑solving and analytical skills.
• Ability to manage multiple tasks within a fast‑paced environment to meet deadlines.
• Strong teamwork and collaboration skills.

Benefits

• 9‑day fortnight with no salary reduction.
• Fully funded gym membership & health insurance discounts.
• Funded professional membership.
• Promotion opportunity & structured learning and development at all career levels.
• Diverse and inclusive firm culture & mental health support, financial & wellbeing coaching.
• And many more!
