This is a well-established two-partner firm on the Gold Coast with a loyal client base and a reputation built on quality advice rather than volume. The partners are hands-on, approachable, and genuinely invested in developing their team — the sort of environment where you'll learn more in twelve months than you would in three years buried in a large-firm workflow queue.
The role
You'll manage your own portfolio of clients across a genuine mix of work: individual, company, trust and partnership returns, BAS and IAS, Division 7A, FBT, and increasingly, advisory work as you grow into it. Client contact is encouraged early — you'll be speaking with business owners directly, not passing queries up a chain.
About you
- 2–4 years' experience in business services or tax within an Australian public practice firm
- CA/CPA qualified or working towards it (study support provided)
- Confident across Xero and cloud accounting platforms
- Someone who enjoys client relationships and wants exposure beyond compliance
What's on offer
- Direct mentoring from both partners with a clear path to Senior
- Full CA/CPA study support and paid study leave
- Adaptable working arrangements and a realistic approach to hours — busy season is busy, but burnout isn't a badge of honour here
- A firm small enough that your contribution is visible, in one of the best places in the country to live and work
