Current Vacancies

Senior BAS Manager with equity potential

First up

Rest assured, we value your confidentiality. We will not contact your current employer and will do our utmost to make sure your interest in this job remains private.

A bit about us

We are:

Paperless and 100% Xero (Platinum status with Xero)
Award Winning - finalists in the Large Partner of the Year, and WINNER of the Advisory Partner of the Year in the 2019 Xero Awards, and finalists in the 2020 Wellington Gold Awards
Focused on advisory and using best-of-breed Xero add on apps
Pushing into more than just accounting (for example checkout Convex Legal - we've got more coming)
Fast paced, constantly changing and looking to improve how we operate
People people, which means we only want someone on our team who fits our culture, and only take customers on who fit that same culture

We also know that the role of the traditional accountant is dying. We've got a strategy in place to deal with that and are supporting our team to keep their skills relevant.

We have an exceptionally open culture, where everyone knows what's going on with everything. We share turnover numbers, our wins and losses, and we hold each other accountable to our internal KPIs. We have the right mix between a relaxed culture, with a family friendly approach, while still pushing each other to be better.

Our customers range from businesses with international branches, to small local startups (and of course everything in between). We help them with regular compliance, planning, strategy, and business growth advisory.

A bit about the role

This is a newly created role – we’re growing so the successful applicant isn’t coming in just to replace someone. We need someone to help lead our Wellington office, support our accounting team, work closely with our customers, and more than anything to help drive our business forward.

The successful candidate will be responsible for:

Reviewing the work of other team members
Delivering advisory work with customers
Managing customer relationships and sales leads
Leading our junior and intermediate accountants

A bit about you

We need someone that's willing to engage with our customers, solve problems, and make a difference to their businesses. We want someone who's fun and great to work with, and who's willing to come on a journey with us and our customers.

The successful candidate must:

Have the technical skills to get the work done independently
Be able to cope with a fast paced environment where things change quickly and new issues come up constantly
Be able to relate to our customers both in terms of how they communicate (both written and verbally) and in terms of what it's like to run a business
Have completed their CA qualification (or have decided not to do it), and have at least six years’ experience in a CA environment
Be tech savvy, Xero is a must, add-ons are an advantage
Have a personality (which we'd love to see a bit of in your job application)

What's in it for you:

A hard working, but relaxed and family friendly (no, this isn't an oxymoron) environment.

A rewarding place to work where your opinion is valued and you're encouraged to try new things (we know, this sounds a bit cheesy but it's what we're all about).

A pathway to equity, and a remuneration package which can fit with what drives you.

How to apply

If you’re certain that you fit the criteria for the role then email Hamish directly (hamish@convexaccounting.co.nz) b– please though, only if you fit the criteria (the amount of spam we get is frankly ridiculous).

Not just yet though...

To be honest, most of the applications we get are people blindly sending off their CV and cover letter. Most of the applications say exactly the same thing. They become very dull to read.

So, don't bother sending your usual covering letter (we would like to read your CV though). Write a brief covering letter through the Seek website - tell us a bit about yourself, what role you play at Friday drinks, what makes you tick, or what you'd contribute to our team.

We do not employ through recruitment agencies. So, if you've left your CV with them in the past, please also send it to us.

Why you'd join Convex is hard to define... But ultimately it's about our team. We've collected a set of exceptional people who create our culture and drive our business.

It comes down to...

Actual Fun

No lip service to work functions. Melbourne, Marlborough Sounds, panic rooms, Sydney and more. Hit targets, have fun.

Benefits

Work trips, health insurance, flu jabs. We actually care about our team

Flexibility

It's fluffy and hard to define. You define it, we agree the ground rules with no push back. Multiple offices, working from home, just what suits.

Our Customers

Some are small. Some are bigger than you'd care to imagine. Whoever it is, you'll work closely with customers who care about your work

Personal Growth

Our business grows when our people grow. We'll help you create a clear plan for your career and we'll help you get wherever it is you want to go.

Access & Influence

We're a small firm. You'll get direct access to our Directors, and be able to influence the future direction of the firm. Being open plan, everyone gets a say.

We are recognised by Xero as being the leading advisory accountants in NZ. Compared to other accountants around the country, we came out on top!

We're always looking for exceptional people to join our award winning team
