AddressThe Role
We are continuing to expand our portfolio and are on the lookout for a confident Intermediate Accountant to join our team in Birtinya. We are flexible on the level of the role being offered and would encourage all interested parties to apply as we are looking for the right ‘fit’ and can work with different levels of experience.
In this busy and varied role you will work with a broad and diverse range of established clients, providing you with both challenging and interesting work.
Reporting directly to a Tax Manager, your primary responsibility will be to provide public practice accounting, taxation and related business services to a client base of individuals through to companies operating via various business and investment structures.
The Company
Not your typical Accountants.... Ok we like crunching numbers so we're nerdy like that but we sure do know how to have fun as well. Poole Group is one of the biggest and most progressive accounting firms on the Sunshine Coast. We are well-established with an excellent reputation and continue to experience growth in these otherwise uncertain and unstable times. Our organisation comprises like-minded people who get a thrill from seeing their clients maximise their potential. We also have plenty of Dads (and Mums…) in the office who like calculating some good jokes - we're a friendly and supportive team who see the value in people.
The Location
Based in Birtinya, we are across the street from Lake Kawana, which provides a perfect backdrop for a stroll or a lunch run while we set our calculators down. The beautiful waterside community of Birtinya is ideally positioned close to some of the Coast’s best beaches and features exciting shopping, dining, entertainment and recreational facilities. It is also home to the Sunshine Coast Health Precinct, which offers world-class hospitals and medical facilities.
What you will bring to the team:
- Tertiary qualifications in Accounting/Commerce;
- Completed, commenced or willing to commence CPA/CA;
- Previous public practice experience (we are open to level of experience but ideally you will have at least 2 years under your belt);
- Business Services, Tax and BAS experience;
- Tax Planning experience;
- Excellent communication skills is an absolute must;
- Excellent knowledge of tax compliance & research skills;
- Ambition to succeed and be able to work autonomously with a great work ethic;
- Previous experience in XERO & Microsoft Office Suite; and
- Experience with XPM and business fitness work papers is preferred but not essential.
Perks of the role:
Along with a competitive salary package (which will be negotiated based on your experience) you will also have access to fantastic benefits, including networking opportunities, the Acacia Employee Assistance Program and access to an onsite Trainer & Mentor providing ongoing professional development to help you stay up to date with the industry. We know the work / life balance can be taxing - so how about a 9 day fortnight? We are also open to part-time applicants.
We are an innovative team of go-getters who work hard but genuinely love what we do.
At Poole Group, we love planning all sorts of social events and parties to keep us consolidated and connected. Social events such as bowls nights, sip & paint afternoons, End of Financial Year and Christmas parties are organised to provide the opportunity to bond along with daily lunch runs and PT sessions (free! run weekly at a local gym - lots of fun and great for the mind and body).
