Junior Accountant

We are looking for offshore accountants with mandatory Australian public practice experience. Roles will primarily focus on year-end compliance work for Australian clients.

We are looking for candidates who are interested in a long-term role and who place value on the team, quality of work, development and stability - not candidates whose primary motivation for moving is simply a salary increase.

Strong written and spoken English is essential for both roles.

Level 1 – Accountant

Experience

• Minimum 2 years’ experience in an Australian public practice accounting firm
  


• Business services / tax experience is essential
  

Expected technical capability

The Level 1 Accountant will primarily focus on:

• Preparation of individual income tax returns
  


• Preparation of Business Activity Statements and Instalment Activity Statements
  


• Year-end compliance for simpler entities
  


• Preparation of workpapers and supporting documentation
  


• Basic company and trust compliance where appropriate to their experience
  

While exposure to companies and trusts is desirable, we expect this role will initially have a greater focus on individual tax returns and less complex compliance work.

We generally do not undertake bookkeeping, so candidates whose experience is predominantly bookkeeping would not be suitable.

What we are looking for

• Good understanding of Australian taxation and compliance requirements
  


• Ability to prepare accurate work with appropriate supporting documentation
  


• Strong attention to detail
  


• Good written and spoken English
  


• Ability to follow processes and respond well to review feedback
  


• Willingness to learn and develop technically
  


• Stable employment history
  


• Professional, reliable and team-focused approach
  


• Genuine interest in building a longer-term career with the firm
