About the role

You'll carry a client group of your own, as the person those owners ring first. You'll work across financial statements and income tax returns for companies, trusts, partnerships, individuals, and SMSFs. Your responsibilities include FBT, Division 7A, CGT calculations and small business concessions, tax planning conversations with owners before year end, structuring advice on new ventures, restructures and property purchases, reviewing bookkeeping and BAS work, and coaching the people who prepared it. You'll work with the offshore team so processing volume isn't all yours to carry.
