Wollongong | Full Time | 3-5+ Years Public Practice Experience

SEEK short description

Are you an experienced public practice accountant ready for your next career move?

Looking for a better accounting role?

We’re looking for an Accountant or Senior Accountant with at least 3 years’ Australian public practice experience to join our growing Wollongong team.

You’ll work with a diverse portfolio of SME, family business and individual clients across accounting, taxation, compliance and advisory work.

This is a great opportunity for someone who wants more client exposure, greater responsibility and a genuine pathway to progress their career.

You may be an Intermediate Accountant ready to step up, or already working at Senior Accountant level and looking for a role with more variety, autonomy and opportunity.

What you’ll be doing

Your role will include:

- Preparing financial statements and income tax returns

- Working with companies, trusts, partnerships and individuals

- Preparing and reviewing BAS

- Managing taxation and compliance requirements

- Working directly with business owners and clients

- Assisting with tax planning and year-end strategies

- Supporting clients with CGT, Division 7A and structuring matters

- Liaising with the ATO and other professional advisers

- Using Xero and Xero Practice Manager

- Building solid, long-term client relationships

- Reviewing junior work as your experience develops

- Supporting less experienced team members where appropriate

As your experience grows, so will your level of client ownership and responsibility.

What we’re looking for

Ideally, you will have:

- 3+ years’ Australian public practice experience

- Experience preparing financial statements and tax returns





- Good knowledge of Australian taxation

- Experience with companies, trusts and partnerships

- Experience working with SME clients

- Confidence communicating directly with clients

- Xero experience

- Strong attention to detail

- Positive organisational skills

- A proactive and reliable approach to your work

CPA or CA qualification is highly regarded, whether completed or currently underway.

You don’t need to know everything.

We’re looking for someone who takes ownership, asks questions, wants to continue learning and cares about delivering quality work for clients.

Why join us?

We want our accountants to develop their careers, not simply process compliance work.

You’ll benefit from:

- Direct client contact

- Exposure to tax planning and business advisory

- A varied SME client portfolio

- Support from experienced accountants and senior leadership

- Genuine career progression

- Modern Wollongong office

- Flexible working arrangements for the right person

- CPA/CA development support

- A friendly and professional team

- Competitive remuneration based on experience

- No timesheets

- Employer sponsorship may be considered for the right candidate, subject to eligibility

We focus on quality, productivity and looking after clients rather than tracking every six-minute increment of your day.

About us

We are an established multidisciplinary financial services business providing accounting, taxation, business advisory, lending and financial advice.

Our clients include SMEs, family businesses, investors and individuals across a broad range of industries.

We want our accountants talking to clients, understanding their businesses and becoming trusted advisers not simply producing accounts behind the scenes.

Ready for your next move?

Your application will be treated confidentially.
