Support tax provisioning, including current and deferred tax calculations, reconciliations and reporting.
Prepare and review tax-related balance sheet reconciliations, journals and month-end reporting.
Review fixed asset tax depreciation and ensure compliance with relevant legislation and internal policies.




Liaise with external tax advisers, auditors and internal stakeholders on tax matters and compliance requirements.
Support tax audits, SOX controls and testing, and requests from revenue authorities.
Contribute to tax-related integration projects, process improvements and strengthening tax governance.
The Successful Candidate
You're a CA/CPA-qualified accounting qualified with experience across tax compliance, reporting and financial accounting. You have a sound understanding of Australian tax requirements, strong attention to detail and the ability to manage competing priorities and deadlines in a fast-paced environment.
