Build Your Career Where It Actually Moves
At Alexander Spencer, we’re not just accountants, we’re growth partners to ambitious businesses.
Ranked in the Australian Financial Review Top 100 and recognised as one of the fastest-growing firms in the country, we’re building something special. And we’re looking for driven, ambitious people who want to grow with us.
If you’re hungry to learn, ready to step up, and excited by the idea of real exposure to interesting and complex work, this could be your next move.
Why Alexander Spencer?
In a larger firm, you might be one of many.
Here, you’ll be seen. You’ll be stretched. You’ll be trusted.
We have teams across Business Services, Mortgages, Advisory, Financial Planning, Bookkeeping and Insurance, meaning you’ll gain exposure most intermediate accountants simply don’t get elsewhere.
You won’t just prepare compliance work. You’ll:
- Sit in client meetings
- Be exposed to advisory conversations
- Learn directly from experienced Managers and Partners
- Develop commercial thinking, not just technical skills
This is the kind of experience that accelerates careers.
We live by four core values:
- Personal Initiative & Drive
- Teamwork & Collaboration
- Respect & Integrity
- Culture of Continuous Improvement
- Proactive Customer Engagement
- Fun
From Friday drinks and team events to spontaneous collaboration across service lines, our culture is genuinely supportive and energising. Success is shared here.
The Role:
You’ll deliver accounting, taxation and business services to a diverse portfolio of SMEs and individuals across various industries and structures (trusts, partnerships, companies).
But more importantly — you’ll grow.
What You’ll Do
- Prepare financial statements and income tax returns with accuracy and confidence
- Prepare and advise on BAS, FBT, GST, Payroll Tax, Div 7A and statutory reporting
- Liaise directly with clients, stakeholders and the ATO
- Assist with advisory projects and client strategy discussions
- Identify opportunities to add value and improve outcomes
Who We’re Looking For
We want someone driven and ambitious. Someone who sees this as a career move not just another job.
You’ll likely have:
- A degree in Commerce, Business or Accounting
- 2–4 years’ experience in tax and business advisory
- Public practice experience (preferred)
- Progressing toward or intending to complete CA/CPA
- Experience with Xero
- Strong technical skills and commercial curiosity
- A proactive mindset and genuine drive to grow
- Most importantly — you want exposure, responsibility and progression.
What You’ll Gain
This role is ideal for someone who wants more than just compliance experience.
- Growth & Exposure
- Direct Partner access and mentoring
- Exposure to interesting clients across industries and size
- Paid study leave
- Financial support for CA/CPA
- 1 WFH day
- Collaborative culture
Perks
- Performance bonuses
- Referral incentives
- Access to in-house wealth, mortgage and insurance expertise
- Brand new office with standing desks, snacks and a stocked bar for end-of-week celebrations
Why This Role Stands Out
If you want to:
- Accelerate your career
- Gain exposure beyond compliance
- Be part of a high-growth firm with real momentum
- Have your contribution genuinely valued
