We are seeking an experienced and detail-focused Senior Australian Tax Accountant to review and quality-check tax work prepared by junior tax accountants in India for TaxMode, an Australian accounting and advisory practice. The role will help ensure accurate, complete, compliant, and client-ready tax work across individual, business, trust, property, and related accounting matters.
This is a senior all-rounder role requiring approximately 3–5 years of relevant Australian tax-accounting experience. The successful candidate will be confident using Xero, able to take ownership of matters from review through to completion, and comfortable liaising with the founder, clients, and offshore team members. The role will also contribute to improving TaxMode’s processes, checklists, workflows, and quality standards.
Technical review and tax compliance: review individual, sole trader, company, trust, and property-investment tax returns, workpapers, financial statements, BAS, IAS, PAYG, and supporting documents prepared by junior accountants; identify errors, missing information, technical risks, and inconsistencies; prepare or finalise work where required; and elevate complex matters before advice or lodgement. Team coordination and process improvement: provide clear review feedback; track outstanding items and deadlines; liaise with the founder, clients, and offshore team; maintain checklists and workpapers; identify recurring issues; and improve TaxMode’s preparation and review procedures.
Strong working knowledge of Australian tax and compliance processes; hands‑on Xero experience; excellent attention to detail; accurate review of numbers and documentation; ability to take ownership and meet deadlines; professional written and verbal English; clear communication with remote teams and clients; sound organisation; and discretion with confidential information.
Experience with Xero Tax, Xero Practice Manager, FYI, BGL, HandiSoft, MYOB, or comparable systems; BAS, IAS, payroll, bookkeeping, capital gains tax, rental properties, negative gearing, depreciation, ASIC agent services, SMSF compliance, or tax‑planning work; and experience creating SOPs, checklists, or training materials.
The client will provide onboarding to TaxMode’s systems, client profiles, review standards, approval workflows, templates, and reporting formats. The successful candidate will be expected to give practical feedback and guidance to junior accountants so that work quality improves consistently over time.
The role will provide senior review, preparation, coordination, and process support. Final approval, regulated tax advice, signing, and lodgement authority will remain subject to TaxMode’s Registered Tax Agent arrangements, the candidate’s qualifications and authority, and applicable Australian requirements. Complex or high‑risk matters must be escalated before advice is issued or work is lodged.
