A senior leadership chance with a clear pathway to partnership, working alongside two supportive and highly regarded Partners in a well-established Brisbane CBD firm.
About The Role
An excellent opportunity has opened up for an experienced Manager or Associate Director to join a large, well-structured Business Services team in Brisbane CBD. This is a genuine leadership role reporting directly to a well-respected Partner, with the chance to build a long-term career, whether that means a clear pathway to Partnership or a strong leadership track. You will work closely with another senior leader in the team, sharing responsibility across a combined group of client-facing accountants while managing your own portfolio and direct reports.
What You Will Be Doing
Managing and reviewing a portfolio of clients ranging from $3 million to $10 million in size, with a mix of industries including agribusiness, mining services, rural businesses and professional services
Overseeing and mentoring a team of accountants (Supervisors, Seniors, Intermediates and Grads), with 5 direct reports plus shared support across a broader team
Working closely with the Partner and fellow senior leader to manage workflow, client relationships and team development




Reviewing compliance and advisory work across a broad client base
Building and maintaining strong client relationships, with genuine enjoyment of client facing work
Contributing to the ongoing growth and direction of the team
What We Are Looking For
CA or CPA qualified accountant with strong public practice experience at Manager or Associate Director level
Proven experience managing and mentoring a team within a public practice environment
Strong technical skills across compliance and advisory work
Comfortable managing a varied client base, agribusiness exposure is well regarded but not essential
Excellent relationship building and communication skills
Genuine interest in either a Partnership pathway or a long term leadership career
2 days WFH & flexible hours
Clear and genuinely supported pathway to Partnership, or an alternative long term leadership career track
Work directly with warm, engaging and highly experienced Partners known for excellent mentoring
Brisbane CBD offices
Broad and genuinely interesting client base across multiple industries
Join a large, well resourced team with strong structure and support
5 weeks annual leave
