  • Impactful Advisory: You'll be a true partner, consulting with accounting firms to help them embrace cutting-edge digital strategies with the Xero platform.

  • Strong Earning Potential: We offer a highly competitive remuneration package, designed to reward your expertise, the value you bring, and your success in driving partner outcomes.

 

Who we're looking for:

 
  • You're an Accounting Professional: Ideally US CPA-qualified, or with significant experience in an accounting practice, and a strong understanding of its operations.

  • You're a Natural Relationship Builder: You enjoy connecting with people and are skilled at building rapport and trust.

  • You're Solutions-Oriented: You're a problem-solver who can identify needs and offer practical solutions.

  • You're Curious about Tech: You have an interest in the emerging online accounting market and the potential of Fintech.

  • You're Ready for a New Challenge: You're looking for a change that leverages your existing skills in a new, exciting environment.
