Senior Accountant / Client Manager in Gold Coast

Gold Coast Full-Time On-site
N

Help build our Queensland presence from the ground up

Next Level Accountants is a boutique firm with a sharp focus: trades and construction businesses. From our Victorian base in Torquay, we service clients across Australia β€” and we're now establishing our Gold Coast presence. This role is central to it.

About Us

We're not a generalist suburban practice. We work with builders, subcontractors and trade businesses nationally, delivering compliance, bookkeeping, Virtual CFO, business improvement and SMSF services. We run a modern stack β€” Xero, Karbon, Microsoft 365 β€” and we invest seriously in AI and automation, so our accountants spend their time on advice, not admin.

The Role

You'll own a portfolio of trades and construction clients as their primary contact:

  • Prepare and review financial statements and income tax returns across companies, trusts, partnerships and individuals
  • Manage BAS/IAS, FBT and Division 7A obligations across client groups
  • Lead tax planning and deliver proactive advice clients actually act on
  • Support Virtual CFO engagements β€” cash flow, job profitability, growth decisions
  • Own client relationships and spot opportunities to add value
  • Help establish and grow our Queensland client base

About You

  • CPA or CA qualified
  • Minimum 5+ years in Australian public practice
  • Strong technical grounding across entity structures, CGT, Division 7A, FBT and GST
  • Demonstrated experience in managing workflow and deadlines
  • Confident Xero user (Karbon experience a bonus)
  • Self-directed β€” you'll work with real autonomy while staying connected to our Victorian team
  • Trades and construction client experience highly regarded.

What's on offer

  • A ground-floor role in our Queensland expansion, with genuine scope to grow as the client base does
  • Direct access to the Director β€” no layers, no bureaucracy
  • Flexible hybrid working arrangements
  • A firm that backs its people with modern tools and serious investment in technology
  • Salary range β€” e.g. $110,000–$130,000 + super
