You’ll work closely with the Partner group, lead a collaborative and talented team, and drive quality, innovation, and growth across the division.

What makes you ‘just right’

This is a genuine leadership opportunity where you’ll shape a positive, high-performing team culture through mentorship, guidance, and collaboration.

Your experience includes auditing public sector entities, large proprietary and small-cap listed companies, with a solid understanding of internal control frameworks across accounting and IT systems. Exposure to AFSL compliance audits, investment properties, private equity funds, or financial instruments across diverse sectors will be highly regarded.

You’ll bring 6+ years of audit experience, be ready to step confidently into a leadership role, and hold a CA, ACA, or ACCA qualification, and possess a degree in Commerce, Economics, or a related discipline.
