What this unique career path offers you:

 
  • Impactful Advisory: You'll be a true partner, consulting with accounting firms to help them embrace cutting-edge digital strategies with the Xero platform.

  • Leverage Your Expertise: Apply your accounting knowledge and industry experience to solve real-world problems for accounting practices, guiding them towards greater efficiency and growth.

  • Strong Earning Potential: We offer a highly competitive remuneration package, designed to reward your expertise, the value you bring, and your success in driving partner outcomes.

 

Who we're looking for:

 
  • You're an Accounting Professional: Ideally CPA-qualified, or with significant experience in an accounting practice, and a strong understanding of its operations.

  • You're a Natural Relationship Builder: You enjoy connecting with people and are skilled at building rapport and trust.

  • You're Solutions-Oriented: You're a problem-solver who can identify needs and offer practical solutions.

  • You're Curious about Tech: You have an interest in the emerging online accounting market and the potential of Fintech.

  • You're Ready for a New Challenge: You're looking for a change that leverages your existing skills in a new, exciting environment.

What you need to know about the Melbourne Tech Scene

Home to 650 biotech companies, 10 major research institutes and nine universities, Melbourne is among one of the top cities for biotech. In fact, some of the greatest medical advancements were conceptualized and developed here, including Symex Lab's "lab-on-a-chip" solution that monitors hormones to predict ovulation for conception, and Denteric's vaccine for periodontal gum disease. Yet, the thousands of people working in the city's healthtech sector are just getting started, to say nothing of the tech advancements across all other sectors.
