ASTAR Recruitment
Posted 22 hours ago
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.
