Senior Accountant / Manager (Part-Time, Fully Remote)

Senior Accountant / Manager - Tax (Part-Time, Fully Remote)

Indiana Advisory is a Sydney-based Chartered Accounting and advisory practice specialising in small-to-medium businesses. We deliver high-quality, trusted accounting and advisory services with a strong focus on proactive, year-round tax management - not just end-of-year compliance. Our clients are kept informed of their tax position throughout the year, not surprised after the fact.

We’re now looking for a Senior Accountant / Manager to take ownership of tax compliance and ongoing tax management for our client base on a permanent, part-time and fully remote basis.

The role

This is a senior, outcome-based role with a strong technical focus on tax compliance, accuracy, and proactive, year-round tax management. You’ll have clear ownership across our client base, working independently with minimal noise and zero busywork.

✅ Your core responsibilities will include:

• Preparing company, trust and individual income tax returns for company directors only (we do not service individuals generally)
• Managing tax journals in Xero, ensuring tax positions are accurately reflected in client ledgers
• Preparing and/or reviewing BAS
• Providing proactive email updates to clients on BAS and superannuation liabilities using our automated workbooks
• Performing year-round tax planning, including calculating income tax liabilities to date for companies and directors
• Liaising with the ATO when required
• (Nice to have, not essential) Preparing written pieces of tax advice.

❌ What this role is not:

• No bookkeeping or “clean-up” work
• No exporting TBs into external ledger software for manual adjustments
• No client relationship management
• No staff management
• No timesheets, our success as a firm is based out on outcomes not time clocked!

❗ What we’re looking for:

• CA or CPA qualified
• Strong public practice background with a genuine interest in tax (tax reform is a big plus! 🤓)
• Solid working knowledge of Xero and Xero Tax
• Comfortable working autonomously, while responding to Teams messages and emails in a timely manner
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills
• Experience with Google Sheets is helpful but not essential - training provided.

🗒️ The details

• Permanent part-time, up to 15 hours per week
• Fully remote and asynchronous
• Laptop and systems provided, ready from day one
• Communication via Microsoft Teams
• Files stored in Microsoft SharePoint and Google Drive
• No timesheets. Outcomes over hours.

💲 Remuneration & perks

• $120,000 FTE equivalent + super (12%), prorated and paid weekly
• Ongoing tax updates for CPE (TaxBanter monthly online updates)
• Supportive, collaborative team
• Occasional in-person catch-ups when needed (preferably at the café ☕).
