•       Prepare management reports and KPI dashboards

•       Assist in improving client processes and systems

WHO THIS ROLE IS FOR

You’ll thrive in this role if you:

•       Want to move into advisory, not stay in compliance forever

•       Think commercially, not just technically

•       Take ownership and follow through on work

•       Are comfortable in a fast-moving, evolving environment

QUALIFICATIONS & EXPERIENCE

•       1–3 years of accounting experience (public practice preferred)

•       Relevant qualification or working towards CA / CMA / CIMA / ACCA

•       Understanding of NZ tax basics is a plus

•       Experience with Xero, MYOB, or similar platforms

•       Strong attention to detail and communication skills

WHAT WE OFFER

•       Hands-on exposure to advisory and strategy work

•       Mentorship from senior finance professionals

•       Flexible working environment

•       Opportunity to grow with a scaling firm

A NOTE FOR APPLICANTS

This is not a passive role.

You will be expected to take initiative, learn quickly, and step beyond your comfort zone. If you are looking for a routine, low-pressure accounting role, this may not be the right fit.
