Work Schedule: Align with Australian business hours (9 AM - 5 PM, Monday to Friday), with flexibility as an independent contractor.
About Hunt St: We specialize in connecting Australian businesses with top-tier remote talent from the Philippines. As a client-focused organization, you will work directly with clients rather than through an outsourcing agency, ensuring a fully remote work environment.
About Our Client: Our client is an innovative accounting and advisory firm that leverages cloud technology to provide effective compliance solutions and strategic financial advice.

- Prepare and review financial statements, tax returns, and workpapers for Australian clients.
- Manage daily accounting operations, including reconciliations, BAS preparation, and compliance support.
- Utilize the Xero ecosystem, including Xero Tax, Xero Ledger, Xero Practice Manager (XPM), and FYI Docs to streamline workflows and documentation.
