Summary about this job

Detail information about job Senior Accountant. Terms and conditions vacancy

• Tree change or sea change - take your pick! Maitland or Newcastle locations
• National Network of offices with boutique approach
• Attractive salary and ongoing professional development - award winning firm

You're an Accountant. You're good with numbers right? Then you know living and working in a capital city is the equivalent of a financial mouse wheel.  If the EOFY where you are working currently, is enough to make you question your sanity – perhaps it’s time to consider a change? 

In the event you don't already live here in the Hunter Valley, you know we are blessed with really affordable housing comparative to capital cities (we are talking around $500k for a 3 bedroom on 650sqm in the suburbs), world class education facilities, ongoing infrastructure spending and a great lifestyle; living in the picturesque Hunter Valley is a really great choice for your physical, emotional and financial future, but doesn’t come at the expense of your career.

With the option to be based in either Maitland or Newcastle, this reputable, long established firm seeks the services of an experienced Senior Accountant to join their team.

Our client prides themselves on their exceptionally high staff retention rates, due in no small part to the training and career development they provide to their team, as well as their social atmosphere and genuine work/life balance. Their client retention rates are also well above average and they attribute this to their approach – reliable, practical, commercial and thorough.

The role of Senior Accountant requires that you have around 5 years of post-graduate experience and ideally have committed to completion of your CA or CPA (if you’ve done it even better). You are a motivated individual who enjoys providing the very best service to your clients across the full spectrum of business services, and it is expected that you can tick off the following:

• Analysis and planning around P&L, Cashflow and Balance sheet
• Financial statements and reporting
• Tax (income, GST, PAYG, FBT, CGT)
• Knowing the basics of Super and Audit to effectively work with specialists in this area
• Exceptional communication skills and fluency of spoken and written English
• Thorough understanding of Accounting systems such as Xero, MYOB etc
• Thorough understanding of APS

This dynamic firm wants to work with you and help you achieve your goals. Find an area of accounting you love and want to specialise in? They will make it happen. Need flexible working arrangements? Nothing is off the table. You might be surprised that the salary isn’t too far off what you can earn in a capital city.

Surely you want to know more? This is more than just a job – it is a wonderful opportunity – you’d be crazy not to find out more. Please contact Kathryn Blackmore for a confidential discussion on 02 4936 6537.
