Manager - statutory reporting specialist

Job Title: Manager – Statutory Reporting Specialist

If we inspire you to do the work you love, will you still call it work?

At EY, we believe that whoever you are, your uniqueness helps us stand apart.

We bring together extraordinary people, like you, to build a better working world.

What's in it for you?

The quality of our Accounting Compliance and Reporting Team and the work we do has attracted increased demand for our services and our team is growing quickly.

We are looking for an experienced financial reporting specialist to become an integrated part of our teams in Melbourne or Sydney, including high-quality Managers with 4+ years' professional services or industry experience.

Your Key Responsibilities:

As our Manager, you'll:

* Work as part of our integrated leadership team in owning and coordinating the provision of statutory reporting services to an allocated book of corporate clients on a day-to-day basis.
* Oversee and supervise the statutory reporting services we provide, including the coordination of client and auditor stakeholders.
* Manage and deliver the full spectrum of corporate financial reporting services based on where our clients' needs take us with full support from some of Australia's best Financial Accounting and Advisory and Tax technicians.
* Build networks and meaningful connections internally and externally to stay abreast of issues and build a pipeline of future opportunities.
* Supervise our team members and support their career development.
* Act as the allocated 'Counsellor' for up to two of our team members.
* Contribute to a positive team culture that promotes high performance, strong collaboration and teaming, and celebrates successes.

What We're Looking For:

Here's our 'wish list,' but don't worry if you don't tick all the boxes. We're interested in your strengths, what you want to learn, and how far you want to go:

* Detailed knowledge of, and experience with, Australian Accounting Standards gained through working in a professional services firm or in a comparable industry role.
* Willingness and ability to work collaboratively in a dynamic team environment.
* Experience in managing remote teams, both within Australia and overseas.
* Strong communication skills with confidence to lead discussions with clients in relation to both technical matters and in the coordination of engagements.
* Demonstrate a high level of accuracy with first-class prioritisation and organisational skills.
* A proactive approach with the ability to work under pressure and adhere to reporting deadlines.
* A flair for identifying risk and driving continuous improvements and automation.
* CA qualification or equivalent completed.
* Technical knowledge of IFRS is essential, and knowledge of another CAAP (e.g., US GAAP) is an advantage (but not essential).
* Audit experience at a Big 4 or mid-tier Firm will also be an advantage.
