What I'm looking for

I’m seeking to transition into end-to-end Australian business-services accounting within a technology-enabled firm, taking ownership of transaction processing, reconciliations, management accounts, and BAS/IAS workpapers.

At XERO, I support Australian accountants, registered tax and BAS agents, bookkeepers, and SMEs across Xero, Xero Tax, Xero Practice Manager, and Hubdoc. I investigate reconciliation, transaction, and source-document issues, then explain practical steps to help practitioners resolve them.

I was selected as one of three Hubdoc extraction specialists and received Xero’s 2025 Core Functional Star Award. I’m seeking to apply my Xero and Australian tax workflow experience to end-to-end business-services accounting, including transaction processing, reconciliations, management accounts, and BAS/IAS workpapers.
