Imagine swapping grey skies for year-round sunshine, morning commutes past Sydney Harbour and weekends spent on world-famous beaches. Now add a role where you’ll work on exciting acquisitions, private equity investments and strategic transactions alongside some of the most experienced dealmakers in the Australian mid-market. This is an opportunity for an ambitious Audit or Transaction Services professional to join a highly respected Corporate Finance team in the heart of Sydney CBD. Working directly with Partners and senior advisers, you’ll gain exposure to a broad range of financial due diligence projects while accelerating your career in one of the world’s most desirable cities. Whether you’re currently in Audit and looking to make the move into deals, or already working within Transaction Services and seeking greater exposure and progression, this role offers the chance to work on meaningful transactions whilst enjoying an exceptional lifestyle. Why Sydney? Sydney combines the career opportunities of a major international financial centre with an outdoor lifestyle that attracts professionals from around the world.
