WFH - Senior Accountant / Team Leader | PAL Accounting & Advisory

Tired of the grind? So were we. Thats why we started PAL Accounting & Advisory.

Were an established boutique firm in Geelong that was born from a desire to do things differently. No glorified burnout. No 60-hour weeks. No egos running the show. Just smart, meaningful work done by good people who take pride in what they do and still have time to live their lives.

We believe you can have a great career and be home for dinner. That you can mentor a team, deliver high-quality client outcomes, and still get to the gym, travel, or make school pickup. We built our practice to make that possible for our clients and our team. And were now looking for a like-minded Senior Accountant / Team Leader to join us in doing just that.

Who we are

PAL Accounting & Advisory is a progressive, people-first firm based in Newtown (Geelong). We support small businesses and individuals with tax, compliance, and advisory services, but were most proud of the impact we have on their lives. Were relationship-driven, community-minded, and growing sustainably with purpose.

Were a close-knit team with high standards, low ego, and a genuine culture of flexibility and trust. No buzzwords just real humans doing good work and helping each other grow.
