This high-profile chartered accounting and advisory firm with long history in the New Zealand market offers the full range of accounting, tax and business advisory services to a broad spectrum of SME clients.
The firm's clients vary widely and many of them are subsidiaries of substantial overseas entities with multi-million-dollar turnover. Current team dynamics and plans for further growth both in the short and the long term have created the need for an assistant manager to join this vibrant team and play a key role in its further growth.
Some of the main duties and responsibilities include:
- Team management - lead and mentor staff members at different stage of their careers,
- Client management – build, nourish and manage relationships with key clients
- Technical – oversee the preparation of financial statements and tax return, budgeting & cashflow/forecasting, manage the workflow for a portfolio of key clients
- Assist the senior leadership team with various ad hoc operational and strategic tasks
In addition to the essential technical competencies in client accounting and tax, this role requires exceptional verbal and written communication skills and ability to manage client relationship with some of the firm’s larger clients.
The diverse nature of the firm's clients means exposure to a wide variety of technical areas. To be successful in this key role you will need to have full CA or CPA qualifications complemented by a minimum of 4-5 years current BAS experience in the context of a sizeable CA firm.
Due to the size and nature of some of the clients, you will have the opportunity to get involved in increasingly complex assignments including a range of value-add projects. This means that, in addition to the traditional statutory accounting, management reporting and tax compliance, the successful candidate will be offered gradual exposure to special projects involving valuations, due diligence, mergers and acquisitions and other advisory engagements.
Our client's culture can best be described as structured and professional, yet very flexible and laid back. The partners are approachable and have based the success of their firm on investing in their people and keeping up with modern technology and new trends in the accounting profession.
The firm has a busy social and sporting calendar and offers industry-leading benefits, including competitive salary, health insurance, gym membership and various other perks.
