Ready to move from commerce into public practice? Bring your accounting and Xero skills, and we’ll teach you Australian tax.

What you’ll get

- A structured move into public practice, with mentoring from the top. You get hands-on tax training and review from our Manager and Partners, direct mentoring from our Managing Partner, and a clear long-term career pathway.

- Independence with your own clients. You look after your own portfolio of SME and HNW clients across many industries and manage their jobs from start to finish. Every day is different.

- Supportive team, smart tech, real growth. Work with team-oriented, encouraging people in an AI-driven firm, with ongoing tax CPDs to build your expertise.

What you’ll do

- Own your client portfolio. Be your clients’ go-to person, build lasting relationships and meet every deadline. You’ll also deal with the ATO and external providers.

- Deliver quality accounting work. Prepare year-end financial statements for companies, trusts, partnerships and sole traders, plus BAS and IAS. Provide management reporting, budgets, cash flow and KPIs, and help clients get the most out of Xero.

- Learn tax as you grow. Progressively take on income tax returns with training and review from the Manager and Partners. Share your commercial know-how with our Overseas Accounting Team.

What you’ll bring

- 4+ years in an Australian commercial (in-house)



accounting or finance role, and CA / CPA qualified or studying towards it.

- Strong management accounting foundations: month-end, reconciliations, P&L; and balance sheet, BAS and GST, reporting, budgeting and forecasting. Advanced Xero skills are essential (certification highly regarded); ERP-only experience (e.g. NetSuite, SAP) will not suit.

- You don’t need tax knowledge yet, but you do need the hunger. Be passionate about tax and client service, and ready to dive deep into fast-paced learning to get up to speed with your peers. It won’t be easy – are you ready?
