Their client base is exceptional and consists of sizeable, complex businesses and high‑net‑worth individuals with multi‑entity group structures who value deep technical expertise and trusted advice.
While the firm works across a broad range of industries, they are particularly well known for their specialist capability in niche technical areas. Continued growth and evolving team dynamics have created a brand‑new opportunity for a capable Client Manager to join this close‑knit team.

- 5–6 years’ current or recent NZ CA experience
- Strong hands‑on experience preparing annual accounts and tax returns
- Proven client‑facing capability and confidence
- Excellent time and workflow management skills
