The Opportunity

- Defined pathway to Director, supported by succession planning and firm growth
- Exposure to a diversified service offering including Business Services, Tax Advisory, CFO Services, R&D Tax and Audit
- A growing firm with strong Australian presence and Asia-Pacific connectivity
- No timesheets - work managed based on client and project budgets
- Hybrid working model (2 days from home, 3 days in the office)
- Ongoing investment in people through monthly and quarterly training, emerging leaders programs and professional development initiatives
- A dynamic, social and people-focused culture with long-term career pathways from junior through to partner
This opportunity will suit a Manager or Senior Manager who is looking for more than just the next role, offering visibility, influence and a genuine pathway into senior leadership within a growing advisory firm.
