About the Client

Our client is a well-established, full-service accounting and advisory practice based in Sydney. With over 20 years of presence in the industry, they serve a diverse client base including individuals, local businesses, international clients, startups, and investor groups.

They provide a wide range of services including tax planning, financial reporting, business consultancy, bookkeeping, BAS/GST, payroll, trust structuring, and strategic advisory.

Their team is known for being professional, attentive, client-focused, and responsive, helping translate complex tax and accounting issues into clear, actionable solutions.

As they expand further, particularly in serving bilingual or multilingual clients, they are looking to bring on an Accountant / Business Consultant who is as comfortable in advisory strategy as in compliance.

Role Overview

This position is a hybrid of accounting compliance and proactive business advisory. You will take ownership of a portfolio of clients and provide a blend of tax, structure, and strategy services.

You’ll be expected to:

Prepare, review, and file financial statements, BAS, and income tax returns (individuals, companies, trusts)

Develop and execute tax-effective strategies and structuring for business and investment clients

Offer business growth advice, forecasting, budgeting, and performance analysis

Provide guidance on trusts, investment vehicles, wealth protection, and cashflow optimisation

Build and maintain trusted client relationships, presenting complex advice clearly

Seek opportunities to improve client processes, efficiency, and outcomes

This is not a purely compliance role — you will be working as a trusted adviser, contributing directly to client growth and structural optimisation.

What We’re Looking For

Minimum 4 years’ experience in public practice accounting

Bachelor’s degree in Accounting, Commerce, or related field (CA/CPA preferred or in progress)

Strong knowledge and hands-on experience with bookkeeping, BAS, tax returns, and financial reporting

Experience in tax planning, business structuring, and strategic advisory services

Excellent verbal and written communication — you must be fluent in English and Portuguese or Spanish

Proven ability to develop strong client relationships and communicate technical concepts in simple terms

Comfortable working with accounting software (Xero, MYOB, QuickBooks or equivalent)

High attention to detail, integrity, and a client-centred mindset

What’s on Offer

Competitive base salary

True career progression with pathway to partnership or commission-based advisory role

Visa sponsorship available for exceptional candidates

Exposure to a diverse, bilingual client base including international clients

Collaborative, supportive team culture with mentoring and professional development

How to Apply

If you’re ready to step into a role that combines technical accounting with strategic advisory, and you meet the language and experience requirements, we’d love to hear from you.
