Why This Role
Put your technical experience to work in a role that offers ownership of client matters, varied business services work, and access to experienced leadership.
The position suits a hands-on Senior Accountant who can manage preparation work, research technical issues and communicate confidently with clients.
Solid judgement, proactive follow-up and accurate delivery are central to success.

Our client is a growing boutique accounting and advisory firm supporting business owners, medical professionals, property investors and private clients.
Services span tax compliance, business advisory, structuring, cash flow support, SMSFs and property-related matters. Practical advice,
responsiveness and technical quality underpin the approach to client service.
The leadership team brings experience across Big 4 tax, international tax, mergers and acquisitions, strategy consulting and private client advisory. That breadth provides valuable context for accountants strengthening their technical judgement and understanding of clients’ commercial decisions.
Regular conversations, daily check-ins and shared workflow lists support collaboration across the fully remote team.
