The Role:

• Greet visitors to the office
• Client support (phone, email, in-person)

• Providing Personal Assistant support to our two firm Partners
• Managing the onboarding of new clients and setup of systems

• An opportunity for you to have a great working environment working locally
• Loads of client contact
• Nurture our clients by supporting our Accountants

What we desire:

Solutions focused. You're one of those people who looks for the bright side of the equation no matter the challenge ahead. An analytical problem solver who knows what questions to ask in order to get the job done.

A cool head when it gets hot around here. Yep, we work to deadlines. That's a given! But you always do your best to keep calm, and carry on. You'll set a leading example with your mindful, empathetic, supportive and articulate nature. Your ability to prioritise is considered second to none.

Our culture & environment:

Values-led. We're pushing hard for results and efficiency, while taking care of each other through our shared values and intent.

Get comfortable. We seek to provide our people with the tools and space they need to feel well and do well. Standing desks, good coffee, a cosy office just a stroll from the beach.

We love local. A lot of our clients live and work within our community. Our relationships are close knit and interconnected as we work, network, and collaborate, regionally—and beyond.

We're humans first and foremost. We get it. You have a life. We appreciate commitment and agility while supporting you with freedom and flexibility.
