We're looking for a registered Tax Agent to join our team, working closely with a portfolio of self-employed clients — sole traders, contractors, and small business owners across a range of industries. You'll be responsible for end-to-end tax compliance and advisory work, with a strong focus on accuracy, deadlines, and client communication.

This role requires hands‐on proficiency in MYOB Accountants Office (AO) and confidence handling the complexities that come with self‐employed income — variable earnings, deductions, GST/BAS obligations, and structuring considerations.

Key Responsibilities

  • Prepare and lodge individual, sole trader, partnership, trust, and company tax returns
  • Manage BAS/IAS preparation and lodgement for self‐employed and small business clients
  • Maintain client records and workflows within MYOB Accountants Office
  • Liaise directly with clients to gather information, explain obligations, and resolve queries
  • Review financial statements and working papers prior to lodgement
  • Identify tax planning opportunities and deduction eligibility for self‐employed clients
  • Ensure compliance with ATO requirements and TPB Code of Professional Conduct
  • Liaise with the ATO on client matters as required (payment plans, audits, queries)
  • Support senior accountants/partners with more complex advisory matters as needed

About You

  • Registered Tax Agent (TPB) — current and in good standing
  • Demonstrated proficiency in MYOB Accountants Office (essential)
  • Solid experience preparing returns for self‐employed / sole trader clients
  • Strong understanding of GST, BAS, PAYG, and small business tax concessions
  • CA/CPA qualified or working towards (highly regarded, not essential)
  • Excellent attention to detail and time management across a busy client portfolio
  • Clear, confident communicator — comfortable explaining tax matters to non‐technical clients
  • Experience with trust structures and small business CGT concessions is a plus

What We Offer

  • Competitive salary based on experience
  • Flexible working arrangements [hybrid/remote/in‐office — adjust as needed]
  • Ongoing professional development and CPD support
  • Supportive, collaborative team environment
  • Established client base — no cold client acquisition required
