• Develop your skillset in indirect tax | $130,000 – $135,000 package
• High visibility with ability to partner with both divisional and group level ELT
• Inner suburbs | Cohesive and stable team environment | Build deep networks
• Ideal for practice first movers or those with industry experience
• 12 month fixed term contract covering maternity leave 

The Opportunity

Our client is a large, well-known industry leader. They have been on an impressive growth trajectory and are a well-loved household name. As a motivated and collaborative Senior Tax Analyst, you will join the team at a group level to provide taxation advice on strategic and operational business scenarios related to indirect tax matters as they arise and provide medium to longer term taxation planning. The remit of the role will grow organically to involve direct tax matters. 

The Challenge

Reporting into the Senior Finance Manager and working with a number of stakeholders internally, the role will include but not be limited to:

• Managing the taxation obligation at a group level including GST, FBT and some exposure to income tax
• Preparation of monthly Business Activity Statement (BAS) for the group with the support of the corporate accounting team 
• Consult on significant areas of GST exposure 
• Become a key point of contact for all audits and reviews including internal auditors, external audits and taxation authorities such as the ATO
• Implement tax initiatives and tax process improvement measures to drive excellence

The Expertise

Please only consider expressing interest in this position if you are degree qualified in commerce/accounting from a reputable Australian University and have since completed your CA/CPA or Masters of Tax.

Along with this, you may be making a first move from the Big 4 or mid-tier chartered environment within Business Services Advisory or Corporate Tax at the experienced Senior Analyst or Assistant Manager level. 

Alternatively, you have commenced your career in an industry taxation role in a large listed environment but may have hit a career ceiling within the team. This could be a brilliant next step to develop your senior tax skillset with a view to take on a broader managerial role encompassing finance and tax management.

Please note this role will commence as a 12 month fixed term maternity leave cover role. However there is possibility that this arrangement will be extended if appropriate.
