Orange, NSW | Full-time, on-site

We're not a volume shop, and we're not after someone who just wants to review compliance work. We're after someone who wants to own the client relationship - the wins, the important conversations, the "what should we do about this" calls (and genuinely enjoy it!)

Thrive Advice, in short

We're a locally owned firm in Orange NSW with 50+ years of combined partner experience and 3,800+ clients across NSW. We help business owners answer three questions: where are you now, where do you want to go, and how do we get there together?

No jargon-for-jargon's-sake, no set-and-forget compliance. Just real advice and real relationships.

What you'll actually be doing

  • Running your own portfolio of business clients - not just ticking their compliance box, but genuinely understanding their business
  • Leading tax planning meetings, management reviews, and year-end conversations as the main point of contact
  • Preparing and reviewing financial statements and tax returns, and making sure everything stacks up against current legislation
  • Spotting the stuff that actually moves the needle - cash flow, structure, profitability - and having the confidence to discuss it directly with the clients
  • Mentoring junior team members and keeping the work quality high across the board
  • Working inside a pod with a Partner, junior staff, and our offshore team, so you're never doing it alone
  • Living in Xero (and picking up Karbon/XPM if you haven't already) and helping clients get more out of their systems

Who we're after

  • CA or CPA qualified, or well on your way
  • 5+ years in public practice, ideally with SME clients
  • Someone who can run a meeting and hold a genuine commercial conversation, not just present a report
  • Strong technically across financial and management accounting, tax, cash flow, budgeting, forecasting and just as strong on the people side
  • Comfortable mentoring and delegating, not just doing
  • Someone who gives a damn about the work and the people around them

Why Thrive

"We built Thrive to be the kind of firm we wished we had worked at. Advisory-focused, genuinely fun, and relentlessly reliable for our clients."

- Adrian & Andrew, Partners
