Accountant - Australian Public Practice

We are looking for offshore accountants with mandatory Australian public practice experience. Roles will primarily focus on year-end compliance work for Australian clients. We are looking for candidates who are interested in a long-term role and who place value on the team, quality of work, development and stability - not candidates whose primary motivation for moving is simply a salary increase.

Strong written and spoken English is essential for both roles. Experience Approximately 3–4+ years’ experience in an Australian public practice accounting firm Strong business services and taxation experience is essential Expected technical capability The Level 2 Accountant should be comfortable preparing year-end compliance work for: Companies Trusts Individuals Business Activity Statements and Instalment Activity Statements Financial statements Income tax returns Supporting workpapers and reconciliations Candidates should also have practical knowledge of, or meaningful exposure to: Division 7A Fringe Benefits Tax (FBT) Common company and trust tax issues Year-end tax adjustments and reconciliations Work will continue to be reviewed by an Australian team member.

However, once you are familiar with their systems, clients and processes, they would expect the quality of their work and existing technical knowledge to mean that review points are relatively limited. Our client is looking for someone with a strong technical foundation rather than someone who requires significant training in core Australian accounting and taxation concepts.
