An exciting opportunity has become available for an experienced Intermediate Business Services Accountant to join the Business Services team.
This role is ideally suited to an accountant who wants to build a long-term career in public practice and develop into a trusted business adviser, rather than remaining focused solely on compliance and processing.

- Identify opportunities to improve processes through technology, automation and AI.
- Contribute to a collaborative, team-first environment.

Ideally, you’ll have:





- 2–5 years’ experience in Australian Public Practice, ideally within Business Services.
- A degree in Business, Commerce or a related discipline.
- CA or CPA studies underway.
- Permanent working rights in Australia.
- Solid foundations across workpapers, reconciliations, journals and BAS.
- Clear and professional written and verbal communication skills.
- An interest in technology, automation and AI and how they can improve the quality of accounting services.

Why join?

- Join an established firm with a 60+ year history and strong reputation.
- Hybrid working arrangement of 3 days in the office and 2 days from home.
- Structured training across technical and soft skills.
- Genuine mentorship focused on developing judgement and advisory skills.
- Exposure to technology, automation and AI.
- Direct client exposure from the outset.
- Opportunity to work with growing SMEs and high-performing professionals.
- Variety across compliance and advisory work.
- Flexibility and autonomy without micromanagement.
- Supportive and collaborative team environment.
- Genuine opportunity to develop into a trusted business adviser.
- Clear focus on Foundation, Strategy and Growth.

The Bottom Line:

If you're an ambitious Intermediate Accountant looking to build a long-term career in public practice and develop into a trusted business adviser, we'd love to hear from you.

This is an excellent opportunity for someone who genuinely enjoys learning, values client relationships and wants to work within a firm that embraces technology while maintaining a strong focus on people, trust and quality.
