Birtinya, Sunshine Coast QLD (Hybrid)
Full-time or Part-time | $110,000 – $120,000 + flexibility & lifestyle benefits
What's in it for you?
4-day work week— get paid for 38 hours, work 32.
Genuine time back for the things that matter outside the office.
Advisory-led work, not compliance-only— the majority of our portfolio is business advisory and forward-planning, not just lodgements and BAS.
You'll be helping clients build wealth and structure their businesses, not just filing their returns.
Mentoring built into the role— you'll shape the growth of our accountants while continuing to develop your own technical and leadership skills.
Modern tech stack— Karbon, Xero Practice Manager, Ignition, BGL360, O365, Monday.com, Change GPS — so you're not wrestling with outdated systems.
Option to progress to a Client Advisor role(if and when you're ready)
The Opportunity
At ABA, we do exactly what our name says — we go beyond the numbers.
This role is for a Senior Accountant who wants more than a compliance desk: you'll manage a portfolio of clients — SMEs, established family businesses — working directly with clients on both the numbers and what those numbers mean for their goals.




You'll bring strong technical accounting skills and pair them with the kind of advisory thinking that turns a set of financial statements into a genuine growth conversation.
Over time, there's a real pathway into a leadership role within the team — this isn't a placeholder title, it's a role with a trajectory.
You'll Enjoy Working With:
A high-performing, friendly team who love what they do
Leaders who genuinely invest in your qualified growth
What You'll Bring
5 years' experience in public practice, ideally with exposure to both compliance and advisory work
While a CA or CPA qualification is welcomed, we're equally interested in candidates who bring proven accounting experience, sound technical knowledge, and a collaborative leadership approach
Confidence in client conversations — you'll be trusted with real relationships
A genuine interest in mentoring and developing others
