Job description

Tax Senior Accountant
Broaden your industry exposure. Build real career runway.

If you're a public practice accountant who's started asking "what's next for me?", this is worth a conversation.

We're partnering with a well-established Chartered Accounting firm in Adelaide, one with deep roots in the local business community and a client base that spans services, agriculture, construction and fabrication, retail, healthcare and property. That range matters: you won't be doing the same job on repeat, you'll be genuinely stretched across industries, structures and client problems.

What you'll be doing

• Preparing and reviewing financial statements and income tax returns
• BAS preparation and taxation compliance
• Tax planning and advisory
• Accounting, reporting, budgeting and cash flow analysis
• Business advisory across a range of client structures
• Building your own client relationships, not just servicing someone else's
• Mentoring junior team members as you grow into a more senior voice in the room

Why this firm

This isn't a revolving door. The firm invests seriously in training and continuing professional education, and several of its senior people built their entire careers there. If you want a firm that will actually develop you rather than just use you, that track record speaks for itself.

About you

You've got Australian public practice experience and you're thinking seriously about where your career goes next. That might look like:

• An experienced Intermediate ready to step up into a Senior role
• An established Senior wanting a different environment, and different clients
• CA or CPA qualified, or well on your way
• Hungry for more advisory work and more complex client exposure
• Ready for more responsibility and a real say in client relationships

You don't need to tick every box. We'd rather understand your experience and where you want to go than screen you out on a checklist.

Only applicants with the legal right to work in Australia will be considered. You must be an Australian citizen (permanent resident or holding an Australian Work Visa with no restrictions) or a New Zealand citizen. We are unable to assist those seeking sponsorship.
