Smart advice. Genuine relationships. Better lifestyles.

For over 30 years, CHN Partners has helped people and businesses succeed through practical accounting, tax and business advice. We guide and empower our clients in their journey to improve their business and financial performance, manage risks and to achieve success, with peace of mind.

We bring the same approach to our team: great work, supportive people, variety and flexibility without the burnout.

Experienced Bookkeeper? This could be the flexibility you’ve been looking for.

CHN Partners is looking for a Senior Bookkeeper who loves the moment a trial balance finally balances, knows their way around Xero and enjoys solving problems, not just processing transactions.

This is a genuine senior role where your experience and skills matter. It’s not just a data entry role; we’re looking for a practical problem solver. You’ll work with clients, get to the bottom of issues, improve processes and give our accountants the information they need to provide great advice.

We’re flexible with hours that suit you!

  • 25 hours up to full-time – you decide and open to discussion
  • 3 days a week in our Ringwood East office
  • Flexible to additional hours
  • $85K–$95K FTE + Super, pro-rata for part-time

We’re a professional, supportive team that values doing great work without letting work take over your life.

The Role

Own a varied portfolio of clients, managing their bookkeeping from end to end. You’ll do more than keep the books tidy, you’ll spot issues, solve problems and help clients make their systems work better.

Key Responsibilities

  • Manage bookkeeping, reconciliations, BAS, payroll and month-end reporting
  • Keep ledgers accurate, clean and current
  • Manage workflow and WIP using XPM and FYI
  • Recommend and implement practical systems and tools
  • Spot issues early and take ownership of solutions
  • Work with our accountants to provide valuable client insight
  • Build trusted relationships and be a real point of contact for clients

What You Bring

  • Several years’ Senior Bookkeeping experience, ideally in public practice or a multi-client environment
  • Strong Xero skills; MYOB, QBO and XPM a bonus
  • Enjoys finding better tools and smarter ways of working
  • Confident working with accountants and communicating directly with clients
  • A practical problem solver who knows when to act and when to escalate
  • Curious, adaptable and comfortable making decisions
  • A good sense of humour, we spend a lot of time together!

If you’re an experienced bookkeeper looking for a role with flexibility, variety and genuine responsibility, we’d love to hear from you.
