The role
You will be playing an integral role in delivering tax compliance and accounting services to our diverse client base including a number of overseas companies with businesses operating in Australia.
Work will initially focus on accounting and BAS services to several major clients. This is a critical step in forming your business and accounting knowledge.
But soon you will also be working on the preparation of income tax returns for individuals, companies, trusts and SMSF.
In a very short time-span everyone in our team has direct exposure to clients, so excellent communication skills, both verbal and written, are essential.
Working a small team, your focus has to be on the team’s success and adhering to our mission, vision and values.
But you are also willing to roll up your sleeves and do whatever needs to be done – whether it’s the washing up, a trip to Officeworks or delivering a parcel to a client.
Due the size of the team and the profile of the clients you will have direct daily access to the director who has managed the business for over 25 years.
The ideal applicant
Ideally you are degree qualified and seeking to become a CA or CPA. You have ambition, are seeking to develop yourself from the ground up and have a “can do” attitude.
You more interested in listening than talking, ask questions to understand rather than sound smarter than you are, and will carry out the tasks assigned to you.
Excellent written and verbal skills.
Interviews will only be granted after we receive your CV and a brief statement about why we should consider your application for this role.
A telephone interview will be granted in the first instance. Those who are short listed will have a zoom interview with the director.
