Research tax issues and prepare client-ready advice; liaise with ATO/OSR and external advisors (legal, finance, production).

Mentor juniors, manage workflow in XPM, and drive high-quality, on-time deliverables without overtime.

You’ll bring

CA/CPA complete and 3–5+ years in Australian public practice.

Strong technical tax capability and sound judgement; comfortable reviewing others’ work.

Proficiency with Xero & Xero Practice Manager (experience with MYOB/QBO a plus).

Clear communication, client empathy and a team mindset.

Nice to have (we’ll teach the rest)

Exposure to entertainment/creative industries (e.g., Producer/PDV Offsets, royalties, international talent, special-purpose entities).

Experience with FYI Docs/HowNow, Dext/Hubdoc, and ATO audit correspondence.
