Unlock Your Potential! 

At TOA Global, we have a deep commitment to empowering individuals to excel in their enterprises, careers, and communities. Our global footprint stretches across Australia, New Zealand, North America, and the Philippines, supporting our global clients across the accounting, finance, and professional services industries. 

We are seeking an experienced, technically astute Senior Accountant to join our team. Operating in a hybrid setup during daytime business hours, you will specialize in Australian individual tax residency, cross-border private client matters, and UK individual tax compliance—providing sophisticated, high-level technical advisory and compliance support for internationally mobile clients.

Your Impact

• Australian High Net Worth International Tax Advisory: Independently research, analyze, and draft complex Australian tax residency advice (including commencement/cessation, temporary resident provisions, foreign income and capital gains, CGT events, and s99B foreign trust distributions). Apply Double Tax Agreements (particularly UK and Singapore treaties) to resolve tie-breaker and dual-residence issues.

• Technical Writing & Research: Prepare robust written residency opinions, factual chronologies, and case-law/ATO research workpapers, translating complex cross-border tax concepts into clear, defensible client reports.

• UK Individual Tax Compliance: Prepare UK individual Self-Assessment tax returns for clients navigating non-residence, the Statutory Residence Test, split-year treatment, treaty residence positions, and claims under the Foreign Income and Gains (FIG) regime.

• Cross-Border Structural Awareness: Identify and evaluate material UK private client considerations—including UK Inheritance Tax (IHT), trust taxation, settlor/beneficiary rules, UK pensions, and the UK tax treatment of Australian discretionary trusts, companies, and superannuation funds—coordinating specialist input when required.

What Tax Professionals Bring

• The Experience: 4+ years of dedicated Australian and/or UK private client tax experience within a Big 4, mid-tier, or specialist international private-client tax practice.

• Education & Credentials: CA, CPA, or equivalent; Australian tax/legal qualifications or postgraduate tax studies; UK qualifications (CTA, ATT, or STEP) are highly advantageous.

• Technical Mastery: Strong command of Australian individual tax residency rules alongside practical working knowledge of the UK Statutory Residence Test, foreign income/gains, and double-tax relief mechanisms.

• Core Competencies: Exceptional analytical and technical drafting skills; ability to prepare clear supporting calculations and workpapers; and the communication poise to explain intricate cross-border tax interactions clearly to high-net-worth clients.
