Who We Are

+vallad advisors is a full-service accounting and advisory firm based in Alexandria, Sydney. We work with high-net-worth individuals, commercial enterprises, family groups, agricultural operations, technical professionals, and trades. Our clients face complex, high-stakes accounting, tax, and advisory challenges — and they expect answers that hold up.

We're cloud-based, tech-forward, and deliberately growing. The work here is substantive. The standards are high. If you're used to firms that move slowly and tolerate average, this will be an adjustment.

The Role

This is a senior position in the truest sense. You'll carry a portfolio of complex clients, review the work of junior staff, manage compliance end-to-end, and contribute to advisory projects. You report directly to the Managing Director — which means you need to be able to think, not just execute.

This role is office-based in Alexandria. Remote work is not available.

Day-to-day, you will:

- Oversee and review workpapers prepared by junior accountants, and hold them to the right standard.
- Prepare and finalise financial statements, tax returns, BAS/IAS, FBT, and CGT calculations across companies, partnerships, trusts, SMSFs, and individuals.
- Deliver proactive tax planning and structuring advice, including written advice on complex matters.
- Manage client relationships with confidence and clarity — taking genuine ownership of outcomes.
- Support and develop junior team members through direct review and practical guidance.
- Identify opportunities to add value beyond the immediate brief — not when asked, but because you see them.




- Work closely with the Managing Director on complex matters and advisory projects, taking weight off the top.

What We Need

- You are technically exceptional. 3–5 years in business services, with strong coverage across compliance, tax advisory, and financial reporting. You don’t need to be walked through the basics.
- You hold or are completing your CA or CPA. This is not negotiable.
- You communicate clearly. Complex advice translates into plain language. Clients receive transparent, considered guidance — not jargon.
- You are commercially aware. You understand the broader picture for your clients and think beyond the ledger.
- You take ownership. Your files are your responsibility. Your clients are your responsibility. You don’t wait to be chased.
- You manage your time. Deadlines are not suggestions. You prioritise accurately and execute.
- You work well at both levels. Independent on your own files. Collaborative when the work demands it. No ego about either.
- You are thinking about what comes next. A pathway to partnership is on the table for the right person. You should be building toward something.

What You Get

This is not a firm that hands out titles and calls it a reward. Performance is how you move here.





- Competitive salary structured to reflect your actual contribution, not just your years in the industry.
- Performance-based rewards for hitting targets and driving throughput. Results are recognised and compensated.
- A genuine partnership pathway for those who demonstrate the capability and the commercial mindset.
- Gym membership.
- Work laptop provided.
- Travel opportunities.
- Direct access to the Managing Director and involvement in high-level advisory work from day one.
- A team that is invested in you — as seriously as we are invested in our clients. That means real support, real feedback, and real development.

Who This Isn't For

Be honest with yourself before you apply.

- You want a role where the ceiling is a pay rise every 18 months and minimal accountability beyond your own files.
- You manage your client load reactively — responding to deadlines rather than anticipating them.
- You need significant direction to produce work of a high standard.
- You are not interested in developing others or contributing to the firm beyond your immediate responsibilities.
- You're looking for a comfortable environment. This firm is performance-driven and expects a lot. That's not for everyone, and that's fine.

How To Apply

Apply using Linkedin and include your current CV and a brief covering note. The cover note doesn’t need to be long — but it should make clear why this role, and why now. Generic applications, recruitment agencies and outsourced providers will not receive a response.
