​​Looking for Philippines-based candidates

Job Role: Senior Manager Accountant

Compensation range: $3,000 - 4,000 AUD / Monthly

Engagement type: Independent Contractor Agreement

Work Schedule: This role is expected to align with the AU business hours (approx. 9 AM - 5 PM, Monday to Friday) for collaboration, but as a contractor, you’ll have flexibility in how you manage your time.

Who We Are: At Hunt St, we help Australian companies hire top remote talent in the Philippines. For this role, you will be engaged directly by the client as an independent contractor. We are not an outsourcing agency. All of our roles are 100% remote so you'll be able to work from home.

Who The Client Is: This Australian accounting practice provides tailored accounting and financial support to small and medium-sized businesses across a range of industries. The team works closely with clients to manage their financial operations, maintain accurate records, and provide clear insights to support day-to-day business decisions. With a strong focus on accuracy, efficiency, and client service, the practice combines professional expertise with modern cloud-based accounting systems. As the business continues to grow, it is expanding its team of experienced accounting professionals.

Role Overview: We are looking for a highly experienced Senior Manager Accountant to oversee our Philippines-based bookkeeping team and provide high-level review, guidance, and support across an assigned portfolio of clients.

This is a senior leadership role suited to an experienced accounting professional who can act as the reviewer and general manager of the bookkeeping function. You will oversee the quality and accuracy of the team’s work, provide technical guidance, ensure deadlines are met, and serve as a trusted, client-facing point of contact.

The ideal candidate will have strong Australian tax and accounting knowledge, excellent communication skills, and proven experience managing or supervising an accounting or bookkeeping team.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Oversee and provide day-to-day leadership and support to the Philippines-based bookkeeping team.
  • Review bookkeeping work across the relevant client portfolio to ensure accuracy, completeness, and compliance with required standards.
  • Conduct quarterly balance sheet reviews, identify issues or discrepancies, and provide constructive feedback to bookkeepers.
  • Ensure bookkeeping deadlines and deliverables are clearly communicated, tracked, and met.
  • Provide technical guidance and higher-level accounting support to the bookkeeping team when complex issues arise.
  • Monitor the overall quality and consistency of work delivered across the client portfolio.
  • Act as a senior escalation point for accounting and bookkeeping matters.
  • Communicate directly with clients, providing clear updates, addressing queries, and building strong professional relationships.
  • Support the development and performance of bookkeepers through coaching, feedback, and ongoing guidance.
  • Use Xero and Excel regularly for review, analysis, reporting, and team oversight.
  • Assist with identifying opportunities to improve bookkeeping processes, workflows, and quality standards.
  • Maintain a strong understanding of Australian accounting and tax requirements relevant to the client portfolio.

Requirements

  • At least 4 years of experience in a Senior Accounting or bookkeeping management role, including overseeing and reviewing the work of a bookkeeping team.
  • CPA qualification required, Philippine CPA qualification is acceptable.
  • Strong knowledge of Australian accounting and taxation, with experience supporting Australian clients preferred.
  • Proficiency in Xero and Excel, with experience reviewing financial records, balance sheets, and financial reporting.
  • Strong organisational and leadership skills, with the ability to manage multiple client portfolios, communicate deadlines, provide feedback, and maintain high-quality standards across the team.
  • Excellent verbal and written communication skills, with confidence in a client-facing role and the ability to provide clear, professional accounting support to clients.

Work Arrangement & Expectations:

This is a remote role that will be set up as an independent contractor engagement.

To ensure alignment and transparency, successful candidates will be expected to:

  • Disclose any existing ongoing roles or client work
  • Reflect this engagement on their LinkedIn profile (clearly marked as “Independent Contractor”)
