Senior Accountant

Why make the move?

• Step beyond compliance – Work directly with clients on advisory, strategy and commercial decisions

• Accelerate your progression – Clear, supported pathway to Manager (not just a promise)

• Do your best work – High-quality clients, strong systems, and a team that backs you

The opportunity

If you’re feeling ready for more ownership, more client exposure, and more meaningful work then this is your next step.

We’re a well-established and growing mid-tier firm with a strong reputation in the Adelaide market. Our continued growth means we’re looking for a Senior Accountant who wants to step up - not just do more of the same.

This role offers genuine variety, working with a portfolio of established and growing clients across industries including agribusiness, manufacturing, transport and professional services. You’ll gain exposure to complex structures, commercial decision-making, and strategic advisory – not just year-end compliance.

What you’ll be doing

• Manage a portfolio of clients and become their trusted advisor

• Prepare and review financial statements and tax returns across complex structures

• Work directly with clients on tax planning, structuring, and business strategy

• Support business transactions, succession planning and growth initiatives

• Mentor and review junior team members, building your leadership capability

• Navigate complex tax matters and engage with the ATO and key stakeholders

What sets you apart

• CA/CPA qualified (or close to completion)

• 3+ years’ experience in public practice

• Strong Australian tax knowledge, with the ability to apply it commercially

• Confident working directly with clients and building relationships

• Someone who wants more than just compliance – you’re ready to step into advisory

• Motivated, accountable and looking for your next career move (not just another job)

What you’ll get in return

• Clear progression to Manager with structured support and mentoring

• Real client exposure – not filtered through layers

• High-quality, recognisable clients you’ll be proud to work with

• A strong team culture that values performance and collaboration

• Ongoing professional development tailored to your career goals

• Access to a broad range of employee benefits and social initiatives

• Modern CBD office and a firm that’s genuinely forward-thinking
