Intermediate-Senior Accountant Client Manager

The core purpose of Copilot Accounting is to create mind, time, and financial freedom for business owners and their families. 

If you are looking to continue your journey with an innovative and modern firm that prides itself on a strong culture dedicated to continuous improvement, this could be the right option for you.

We are looking for either an Intermediate or Senior Accountant. 

This role offers an exciting opportunity to take over a portfolio from a team member who is leaving to start a family. You’ll step into an established, well-supported position where relationships are already strong.

Copilot Accounting is an amazing place to work, where culture and values are the foundation of everything we do. We're a modern, ambitious firm that genuinely supports, encourages, and rewards our team for the difference they make.

If you're looking for a workplace where you're empowered to grow your professional knowledge and experience in a truly supportive environment, this could be the perfect fit for you.

Are you driven by:

• Helping clients to run a better business 

• Growing your advisory skills

• Working with the best-in-class cloud-based technology

• Access to support, training, and mentoring to develop your own personal and professional goals

• Working in a strong team environment

• Flexibility and balance in your work and life

If this sounds like you, we are looking for a new team member who can:

• Be a contact point for client queries and potential advisory

• Manage a portfolio of clients for all of their accounting needs

• Work diligently as part of a high-performing team

• Set SMART goals and work towards achieving them

• Be proactive in finding solutions to client problems

Copilot Accounting is a family-friendly team who live by their core values:

• Lead – Set the standard, make our actions speak louder than words

• Team – Use the strength of teamwork, as together we can achieve so much 

• Balance – In everything that we do and in everything that we recommend

• Passion – Love what we do because we care for who we work with and for 

• Grow – Challenge ourselves and our clients to always improve

A modern firm in all aspects; maintaining a flexible working policy, Copilot Accounting is seeking candidates ambitious to grow.  

We pride ourselves on attracting and retaining team members and are dedicated to seeing our team taken care of and thriving at work. 

Some of the benefits you will get if successful:

• Be part of the Copilot® Airpoints Rewards Program

• Modern uniform fully supplied

• Flexibility around hours and days worked

• Two additional days of leave for each employee annually

• Increasing KiwiSaver contributions based on longevity

For the right candidate, there are options for career progression and growth.

While our preference is for our team to work in-office to fully benefit from our collaborative culture, for the right candidate, we’re open to a hybrid working arrangement. Similarly, while our ideal is a full-time role, we’re happy to consider reduced hours (25+ per week) for someone who is the right fit of a senior level.
