Recruitment Expert
Posted 10 days ago
My client is a multi-disciplinary accounting firm located adjacent to Hawthorn Station, offering a mix of compliance, advisory, financial planning, and lending services. With a team of 20 staff, supported by offshore resources, they’re continuing to grow and they’re looking for a confident, capable Senior Accountant to join the business.
This is an excellent opportunity for someone who thrives in a fast-paced, diverse environment, and is ready to take ownership of their work.
About the Role:
The position is a mix of compliance and advisory work, servicing a broad and interesting client base, including manufacturers,importers/exporters, engineering firms, and even a flower grower. You won’t be pigeonholed here — every day will bring a new challenge.
The firm currently uses APS but is transitioning to Xero, so cloud-based experience is valued. They operate in a high-trust environment where people are given autonomy, and career growth is based on merit, not tenure.
What They’re Looking For:
- Minimum 5 years' experience in public practice accounting
- Someone who is confident, autonomous, and takes responsibility for their work
- CA/CPA qualified or qualified by experience – they’re open to the right candidate
- Strong compliance skills and an appetite to grow in advisory
- A mature, grounded personality with excellent client-facing skills
- Must be willing to work primarily in-office – though 1 day WFH is available if budget targets are being met
Why Work with Them?
- Career progression without a ceiling – advancement is based on ability
- A 25-year-old senior manager proves they promote talent quickly
- Culture of trust – staff aren’t micromanaged or clock-watched
- Supportive team and approachable three-partner leadership
- Staff are hired based on attitude first
- Office located next to Hawthorn Station with all-day parking nearby
- Competitive salary, aligned with performance and experience
- Firm operates on a multiple of 2–2.5, reflecting high performance expectations balanced with support
If you're looking to join a firm where you’ll be respected, challenged, and given room to grow — without being micromanaged — I’d love to hear from you.
