Unlock Your Potential with Andersen

Are you ready to take your career to the next level with a fast-growing, high-energy advisory firm? At Andersen, we’re not here to simply follow the status quo — we’re here to lead, challenge, and make an impact. And we’re looking for a Senior Accountant who’s eager to do the same.

We are an ambitious and evolving firm, focused on delivering bold, forward-thinking solutions in business advisory, tax, corporate finance, and growth partner solutions. Our clients range from dynamic startups to major enterprises, and they trust us to not only solve problems but to create new opportunities.

As a Senior Accountant at Andersen, you’ll play a key role in shaping the success of our clients and our firm. Working closely with a high-performing leadership team, you’ll take ownership of complex engagements, manage key client relationships, and mentor up-and-coming accountants. Whether it’s financial reporting, compliance, IFRS advisory, or driving efficiency through technology, you’ll be tackling work that challenges and excites you.

We’re not just looking for technical skills — we want someone who thrives in collaboration, builds trust effortlessly, and brings a growth mindset to every challenge. Someone who energizes the team and inspires others to push boundaries and achieve exceptional outcomes.

At Andersen NZ, we’re building something special. A place where innovation meets execution, where your career is accelerated, and where your ideas will help shape the future. If you’re driven, ambitious, and ready to make an impact — we want to meet you.

Senior Accountants can expect to:

  • Take ownership of financial reporting, IFRS compliance, and tax obligations for a diverse client base.
  • Provide insights and strategic advice to clients on financial performance and business improvement.
  • Build and maintain strong client relationships, ensuring seamless communication and top-tier service.
  • Supervise, train, mentor, and support junior and intermediate accountants, fostering professional growth.
  • Monitor and prioritise workflow to meet deadlines and exceed client expectations.
  • Lead and contribute to internal projects that enhance firm-wide systems, productivity, and client experience.
  • Drive continuous learning and innovation, staying ahead of industry and legislative changes.

 

What we're looking for: 

  • 4-8 years of experience in an accounting practice
  • IFRS experience an advantage but not essential
  • CA/CPA qualification (or working towards completion)
  • A proactive self-starter with the ability to thrive in a fast-paced, dynamic environment
  • Proven experience managing client relationships and delivering high-quality financial services
  • Strong technical proficiency, including the ability to leverage technology for efficiency
  • Ability to work in New Zealand on a full-time basis; citizen, resident, work visa.

 

The challenge is here. The growth is real. The time is now.
Join Andersen and contribute to something bigger.
