We aren’t your typical accountants

Rather than being seen as a service provider, Brydon sees Infinite Possibilities as a solutions provider.

We believe in delivering “Accounting as it should be”.  And what does “Accounting as it should be” actually mean?  It means making sure anything we do for our clients gives them more certainty, more money or more time.

How do we do this?  We deliver “Accounting as it should be” by understanding one solution doesn’t fit all so we tailor any advice we offer our clients and their businesses by:

  • CHALLENGING their current thinking and questioning the status quo,
  • REFRAMING our discussions with our clients around new ideas and perspectives, and then
  • GUIDING them to new and better possibilities.

Not sure if you’re qualified?

We’re always looking for new talent to join our team of contract accountants.  Please be aware, we are not looking to take on anyone as an employee as we have consciously chosen to work with contractors in business for themselves so they can better relate to our clients challenges in business.

We don’t expect you to have any particular background, or to be qualified as a Chartered Accountant (or equivalent).  The most important thing to us is your ability to deliver the work our clients need to the agreed standard, within the agreed timeframes and for less cost to the client than the value the client gets from what we’re doing.

Ideally, you will have:

  • Proven experience in preparing financial statements and income tax returns for companies, trusts, individuals, partnerships and any other variations of entity types.
  • Knowledge of the various legal requirements relevant to businesses and their owners – a lot of what happens in business is ‘controlled’ by law.
  • Better than average understanding of computerised accounting systems (while not necessary, we prefer you have experience using Xero).
  • Ability to use Microsoft excel, word and outlook effectively.
  • Qualifications that demonstrate a commitment, willingness, and ability to learn new things – this may or may not include CA registration.

And you’ll need to have a proven ability to:

  • Focus on delivering value to our clients by making sure the service our clients receive is worth more to them than what they pay us,
  • Understand and give clients what they really want and/or need,
  • Continually look for ways to “do more with less” for our business and our clients by improving on what we do, and
  • Be flexible and adaptable to our clients’ needs.

Are you already doing contract accounting work?  We understand you may already have clients or work of your own, and that’s fine. Please mention this in your application (the details of which are at the bottom of this page).

As a contractor, you’ll need to be prepared to provide your own IT equipment capable of connecting to our virtual systems and to meet your own business compliance, insurance, and taxation requirements.

Five reasons to join us

  1. Earning power – You will have access to an established and developing client portfolio, which we will expect you to service and cultivate. Your earnings will be in line with your experience and ability, and we’re happy to consider ‘bonuses’ where you directly contribute to the growth of our business.
  2. Work alongside results focused people – We’re continuously seeking to build a leading accounting firm for small to medium sized businesses. To do this we look out for and choose to work with only those people who also are results focussed, which means you’ll be working around people who are open minded, always learning new things, and innovative in their way of thinking.
  3. Training and support – Even though you may be a contractor, we are happy to provide training and support where relevant to make sure you are empowered to achieve, succeed and enjoy your position with us.
  4. More than just compliance – Our team has access to a range of best practice resources for the delivery of business services. You will have the opportunity to learn from a different thinker as our Managing Director, Brydon, is more than happy to share what he knows.
  5. Informal working environment – We make decisions quickly, adapt to changing needs as required, and have open communication. If you’re in our office or meeting with clients, we expect you to present yourself professionally, but we are not a “suit and tie” type of company.  Our office is almost completely ‘virtual’ to make it easier for you to work remotely.

What you’ll do as a contract accountant

You’ll be joining our team of contract accountants who are responsible for providing our clients with the accounting services they deserve.

You’ll use:

  • Your personal and professional expertise.
  • Our hosted systems including WorkflowMax, Xero, CCH Business Fitness, the GAP Portal, Connect Works, DropBox, and MS Office.
  • Our internal processes, templates and models.

You’ll provide services that include:

  • Preparing annual financial statements for companies, trusts, individuals, partnerships and any other type of entity
  • Completing income tax and GST returns for the entities listed above
  • Preparing and file statutory documents for trusts and companies
  • Responding to ad hoc queries about accounting, tax and business related issues
  • Recognising issues, including taxation and statutory and regulatory changes, and their impact on clients

And just as important, while providing these services, you will:

  • Develop a positive, professional rapport with our clients
  • Fully understand clients’ business needs before commencing your work
  • Actively identify and develop opportunities for assisting clients
  • Deal with client challenges and roadblocks as they arise in conjunction with our Managing Director
  • Manage all client jobs efficiently and effectively
  • Ensure your targets are met as agreed from time to time with our Managing Director

The type of contractor we are seeking

To be, and to remain relevant to business owners, we focus not only on preparing financial statements, but on partnering with our clients to provide them with first-class business services.

To match this focus, we are interested in talking to you if you:

  • Share our core values as these are the cornerstone in how we work with our clients, our suppliers and our team.
  • Have the people skills necessary to assist our clients.
  • Are willing to learn new systems and processes.
  • Are dedicated and disciplined to complete tasks with accuracy and efficiency.
  • Take responsibility for your contribution to the successful servicing of our clients.
