Intermediate Accountant (Mackay) Intermediate Accountant | Mackay, QLD

Are you an accountant who loves the numbers but hates the big-city grind? 
If you’re ready to step up from a junior role, take on more autonomy, and work with a diverse portfolio of local agribusiness, construction, and tourism clients, this is your move.

The Role:
You won't just be a "back-room" number cruncher. You’ll be working directly with clients to help them understand their financial health and plan for the future.

Your day-to-day will involve:

  • Preparing financial statements and tax returns for individuals, partnerships, trusts, and companies.
  • Assisting with Business Activity Statements (BAS) and FBT returns.
  • Providing cloud accounting support (Xero/MYOB) to help clients streamline their operations.
  • Developing your skills in tax planning and business advisory under the mentorship of our Senior Partners.
  • Building genuine relationships with Mackay’s local business community.
What You Bring:
  • Education: Degree qualified and currently undertaking (or looking to start) your CA or CPA qualification.
  • Tech Savvy: Proficiency in Xero and common tax software.
  • Communication: You can explain a P&L statement without making someone's eyes glaze over.
  • The Mackay Spirit: A proactive attitude and a desire to contribute to the local community.
Why Join Us?
  • Career Growth: We don't believe in glass ceilings. We provide structured mentoring and full financial support for your CA/CPA studies.
  • True Work-Life Balance: Forget the 70-hour weeks. We work hard, but we make sure you’re out the door in time to enjoy the Reef or the Pioneer Valley.
  • Competitive Salary: Remuneration based on experience, plus performance incentives.
  • Relocation Support: Moving to the region? We can discuss a relocation package for the right candidate.
