Why Join Xact?

At Xact, you'll enjoy far more than a traditional Business Services Manager role, including:

• Own your client portfolio with genuine autonomy and minimal micromanagement
• Convert warm inbound opportunities, supported by one of Australia's strongest accounting marketing engines - no cold prospecting required
• Focus on advisory work, with offshore teams handling much of the compliance preparation
• Accelerate your career through a genuine pathway to Client Director, Partner and uncapped earning potential

About the Opportunity

Xact Accounting is seeking a full-time Business Services Manager (internally known as an Associate Client Director) to join our growing Compliance Division.

Reporting to a Client Director, you'll manage your own portfolio of clients while leading client relationships, reviewing technical work, mentoring team members and contributing to the continued growth of the business.

This role can be based remotely from anywhere in QLD, NSW or Victoria, with occasional travel to Brisbane as required. If you're based in Brisbane, this will be a hybrid offering with 3 days in office and 2 days WFH.

More specifically, you will:

• Managing a portfolio of business advisory and compliance clients
• Building trusted relationships with business owners
• Leading and mentoring onshore and offshore team members
• Reviewing taxation and compliance work to a high standard
• Managing workflow, budgets and client profitability
• Conducting client reviews and identifying advisory opportunities

About You

To be considered, you'll hold CA or CPA qualifications (CA preferred) together with at least seven years' experience in Australian Public Practice, including previous management experience.

The following experience will be highly regarded:

• Xero and Xero Practice Manager (XPM)
• Strong taxation and compliance knowledge
• Commercial awareness and business development capability
• Experience mentoring or leading teams
• Exposure to the building and construction sector (desirable)

Above all, you're an ambitious relationship-builder who enjoys working autonomously, embraces innovation and wants to build a long-term leadership career rather than simply manage compliance.

About the Benefits

In return, you'll receive a competitive package of $155,000 - $180,000 (inclusive of superannuation), plus uncapped performance bonuses, along with outstanding career opportunities and flexibility.

Additional benefits include:
