The future is here. Dealing with the 4th industrial revolution is the next hurdle.

Company Description

The Local Accountant is a small but mighty accounting firm based in Penrith, working closely with small business owners, families, and local legends. We’re real-time, paperless, and people-first. Our mission is to give clients clarity and confidence with straight-up advice and proactive support all year round — not just at tax time.

We’re growing fast and looking for an experienced Accountant who’s keen to take ownership, work with good people, and grow with a firm that’s going places.

Role Description

You’ll be trusted with managing client work end-to-end, building strong relationships, and delivering quality outcomes that make a real difference. Your day-to-day will include:

  • Managing a variety of jobs across small business clients
  • Preparing tax returns, BAS/IAS, and financials for companies, trusts, partnerships, and individuals
  • SMSF compliance (if you enjoy that kind of puzzle)
  • Xero bookkeeping, reconciliations, and real-time reporting
  • Monthly and quarterly client check-ins with meaningful, proactive advice
  • Helping people — not just “doing the numbers”

Qualifications

You’re an experienced public practice accountant who cares about doing great work and being part of something bigger than a job. You bring:

  • Solid previous experience in public accounting practice
  • Strong Xero skills and a love for clean, tidy files
  • Confidence to manage work independently and speak clearly with clients
  • SMSF experience (a bonus, not a dealbreaker)
  • CA/CPA qualified or actively working towards it
  • A genuine drive to help others, grow professionally, and be part of a supportive team

Sound Like the Role for You?

We’re not about big-firm fluff or box-ticking. We’re here to do high-quality, meaningful work that genuinely helps our clients — and to enjoy the journey with a supportive, down-to-earth team. If that sounds like your kind of place, we’d love to hear from you.
