Senior Tax Accountant

Ashton Wheelans - Christchurch

  • Canterbury
  • Permanent

Our Client
With over 60 years in business, Ashton Wheelans is a gold-standard chartered accounting firm with offices across Christchurch, Rangiora, the West Coast, Oamaru and Wanaka, serving a diverse client base across a wide range of industries.

Ashton Wheelans are more than just accountants – they’re trusted advisors focused on staying ahead of the curve and delivering exceptional client experiences. “Shaping Success” isn’t just a tagline here; it’s a way of working, both with clients and within the team.

This is a rare opportunity for an experienced tax specialist to build something meaningful – bringing a growing client base in-house and shaping the role around the way you want to work.
  
The Role
Ashton Wheelans require a Tax Specialist to work with their existing client base.
You’ll operate with real autonomy – this is a role for someone who can genuinely stand alone technically but not work in isolation.

Given the specialist nature of the role, Ashton Wheelans is genuinely open to part-time and hybrid arrangements for the right person – this is a role that can flex around your life too.

Skills and Experience
You’ll bring strong, specialist tax experience and the confidence to operate with minimal day-to-day oversight – perhaps you’ve come from a sole practitioner background, a partnership arrangement, or a senior in-house tax role where you were the go-to expert.

You’ll be technically sharp, comfortable managing your own workload and client relationships, and just as happy collaborating with a wider team when it’s useful. A pragmatic, can-do approach and a good sense of humour will go a long way in this crew.

If you’re after a role that respects your expertise, gives you genuine flexibility, and doesn’t come wrapped in stuffy corporate formality, this could be exactly what you’re looking for.

Please apply online with your cover letter and CV.
