Employer Bio:
Our client is a leading professional services firm based in Geelong, renowned for doing their best for their clients, their people and their community. They offer an outstanding work environment, relaxed working culture and a range of benefits with an emphasis on work/ life balance.

The Job:
Due to strong and consistent client growth and continuous word of mouth referrals, a position has now become available to join the team as Auditor. With 6 in the audit division, and 2 Directors, you'll be working across a broad range of clients and industries and will oversee the audit process from start to finish. You'll plan, prepare and execute external audits from end to end, assist with the planning and preparation of an audit engagement, review financial statements and analyse and document internal controls and control environments. Conducting controls testing and standard audit activities, you'll ensure jobs are completed effectively and in a timely manner, and assist in preparing business reports and management letters for clients, highlighting key audit findings and recommended actions. Reviewing and assessing the accuracy of financial reporting, disclosures, and compliance with accounting principles, you'll identify discrepancies, irregularities, or areas requiring further investigation. You'll also provide technical guidance to resolve complex accounting and auditing issues by staying up to date with accounting standards, regulation and industry trends. Building strong relationships with clients and colleagues, you'll develop your technical and professional skills within a supportive team environment who pride themselves on planning and organisation so the busy season flows as smoothly and as stress free as possible.

Benefits On Offer:
You'll enjoy a 9 day fortnight, a flexible working environment (and the ability to work from home up to 2 days per week post probationary period) and competitive remuneration commensurate with experience. You'll be supported to complete a wide range of professional and personal training and development throughout your career to ensure that you have the skills and knowledge you need to further your future, with achievable promotion opportunities. You'll also enjoy parking onsite, a central location, team lunches, and an active social club.

Culture Snapshot:
This working environment is one of the best out there. Collaborative, supportive, friendly, trusting and engaging. On one hand the environment is relaxed, casual, down to earth and fun, but on the other, business activity is fast paced and agile with an accompanying growth mindset. Here you'll find loads of well humoured office banter and celebrating success. Everyone is respectful and well intentioned, and there is a genuine focus on internal promotion and continuous learning where self improvement and development is both encouraged and celebrated.

Skills Required:
Ideally with at least 1 year external audit experience, you'll be undertaking or working towards CA or CPA, hold relevant tertiary qualifications and would like to continue to learn and grow your career with a firm long term. With excellent communication and interpersonal skills, you'll be a team player, self motivated and highly organised with strong attention to detail. Committed, result driven and with a proven ability to build and maintain client relationships, you'll be able to work to deadlines, and with an analytical and enquiring mind, you'll appreciate continuous learning and development. Genuinely enjoying working in the audit space, you'll also be able to navigate audit software, data analytics tools and financial modelling, and use common accounting software (such as Xero, MYOB and Quickbooks).
