JOB OVERVIEW

About the role

Applicants with no AU Accounting experience will be automatically rejected

We're looking for a Practice Administrator / Administration Assistant to provide direct administrative support within our accounting practice. This is a purely administrative role — it is not an operations or administration management position, and there is no bookkeeping or accounting career pathway attached to it.

What you'll be doing
-Email management
-Diary and appointment coordination
-Handling client phone calls and general client communication
-Workflow coordination and follow-up
-Client onboarding support
-Chasing outstanding documents and information
-General practice administration

What we're looking for
-A strong grasp of deadlines, with the ability to pick up our terminology and processes quickly
-Initiative — someone who works through tasks and flags issues without needing to be directed at every step
-Familiarity with FYI and Microsoft 365 (our primary systems for jobflow and workflow management); experience with Xero and Xero Practice Manager (used only for return preparation) is useful but secondary
-Administrative experience within an Australian accounting practice is highly desirable, though not essential for a strong candidate

Applicants with no AU Accounting experience will be automatically rejected
