You'll be joining a practice that prides itself on personal connection - including face‑to‑face client engagement - while supporting a balanced, supportive workplace culture. The firm works with a diverse portfolio of clients, including high‑net‑worth individuals and small to medium enterprises.
You'll enjoy free parking (street and six dedicated on-site spaces), regular in‑house monthly tax training, and a social culture with birthday drinks, Friday drinks from 4pm, an EOFY dinner with the Partners, and a Christmas lunch to celebrate the year.
Your new role
As a Senior Accountant / Client Manager, you will take ownership of a well‑established portfolio of clients, managing end‑to‑end compliance and advisory work.

• Build strong face‑to‑face relationships with clients.
• Prepare and review work across companies, trusts, individuals and SMSFs (using Xero Tax and BGL).
• Manage client workflows, ensure deadlines are met, and uphold a high standard of service.
• Deliver work to Partner review within a flat, collaborative team structure.
• Support junior team members when required, contributing to a positive team culture.

Your client base will consist of approximately half high‑net‑worth individuals and half SME clients, providing a varied and engaging workload.
What you'll need to succeed
To be successful, you will bring:

• Experience in public practice accounting, ideally with exposure to SME and high‑net‑worth clients.
• Strong technical knowledge across tax and business services.

• Excellent communication skills and confidence engaging directly with clients.
• The ability to manage your own portfolio and deliver quality work for Partner review.

Soft KPIs and achievable targets mean you'll thrive if you enjoy building relationships and delivering consistent, reliable client outcomes.
