Job Description

This is not your average accounting firm.  Founded by a talented and driven Professional Accountant, my client is a Cape Town-based practice driven by community, collaboration, and a hands-on, tech-forward approach. For seven years, they’ve been helping entrepreneurs and small businesses thrive by doing more than just the numbers — they dive into operations, unlock value, and train teams to use systems that work for them.  They believe in working smarter, not harder, and they believe in empowering people — both their clients and one another.

We’re seeking a qualified Professional Accountant (SA) who wants more than a 9-to-5. This is an opportunity for someone who’s eager to build their own book of clients within an established, values-driven practice — with full support, guidance, and shared infrastructure.  If you’re passionate about small business, excited by technology, and want to grow in a collaborative environment that still gives you autonomy — this could be your next move.

What you'll be doing

• Take ownership of a portfolio of clients (existing + new)
• Conduct monthly accounting maintenance, including VAT, Payroll, Credit Control
• Prepare Annual Financial Statements & manage audit prep
• Advise on and implement cloud-based accounting solutions (Xero + partner apps)
• Provide operational support and insights to business owners
• Handle Company Income Tax and Secretarial requirements
• Participate in our collaborative network – share knowledge, ideas, and support
• Over time: mentor junior team members and contribute to practice growth

What we’re looking for

• SAIPA Qualified (registered Professional Accountant), and Registered Tax Practitioner 
• Completed SAIPA Articles, no more than 5 years additional experience
• Proficient in Xero and comfortable exploring related tools
• A self-starter with an entrepreneurial mindset
• Solid communicator who enjoys working with clients, not just for them
• Cape Town-based or willing to travel for occasional in-person collaboration

What’s in it for you?

• Work under the firm's umbrella and benefit from an established brand
• Build your own client base — with freedom, support, and shared resources
• Collaborate with like-minded accountants who value teamwork, not competition
• Use smart, efficient systems that reduce admin and increase impact
• Remote working opportunity
• Be part of a future-focused, values-driven accounting community

If you don’t hear back from us within 2 weeks of applying, please consider your application unsuccessful. But stay in touch — follow us online and keep an eye out for future opportunities.
