Run your own portfolio of growing businesses, lead a small team, and work collaboratively with our vCFOs, with a path to vCFO for the right person.

The Client Manager manages a portfolio of clients, mostly Australian, and makes sure their accounting work is delivered on time and to standard.

You lead Intermediate Accountants and Bookkeepers on the technical side, review their work for quality, and act as the primary point of contact for your clients. Depending on the engagement, you work collaboratively with one of our vCFOs.

This is a client-facing role run largely over Zoom, so we ask every applicant for a short video intro.
