This is not your average accounting job.

We’re looking for a Senior Client Manager who’s technically sharp, commercially switched-on, and emotionally intelligent enough to build relationships that actually stick. This isn’t just about tax returns. It’s about leading people. Solving problems. Growing businesses. And helping shape the future of ours.

At Propeller Advisory, we help growing businesses make sense of their numbers and fall back in love with their business. We’re accountants with edge, heart, and a serious brain for strategy.

Flexible & Family Friendly
We get that life happens. Whether you’re a school drop-off parent, a time-blocking queen, or someone who just values breathing space, we’re here for flexibility that actually works.

We Actually Walk Out Talk
Our values aren’t just buzzwords. We live them in every meeting, email, and moment—and we hire people who do the same.

Supportive, High-Energy Team Culture
Join an amazing team that genuinely supports each other and celebrates wins together.

Modern, Central Office Location

What You’ll Be Doing

You'll manage your own pod and lead and grow a client portfolio of high-calibre service businesses of up to $1M plus. Your days will be split between:

Advisory: Budgeting, forecasting, cash flow advisory, business planning, and valuations

Client care: Strategic meetings, ongoing communication, and proactive insights

Leadership: Mentoring your team, reviewing their work, running performance reviews

Strategy: Sitting on the leadership team, driving the direction of the firm

Execution: Ensuring quality delivery, timely outcomes, and rock-solid compliance

If you’re excited by data and decisions, humans and habits, spreadsheets and stories, you’ll love it here.

What You’ll Need

5+ years in public practice (with at least 2 leading teams or managing clients)

Experience with business advisory (budgets, cash flow, valuations)

Strong working knowledge of Xero, Karbon, Class, and Now Infinity

CPA or CA (ideal, but not essential)

Excellent communication and leadership skills

A real passion for helping small businesses grow

What Makes This Role Different

You’ll join a firm that’s building for the long game, not just next quarter

You’ll work part of a high-trust, low-ego leadership team

Option to work from home two days a week

You’ll work with amazing clients who are ready for more than compliance

You’ll have the freedom to lead, innovate, and get things done

You’ll love Mondays again (We do. Really.)
