Tax Consultant - R&D Tax

We’re a leading business management solution with a core purpose: helping more businesses in Australia and New Zealand start, survive and succeed.

At MYOB, we believe what’s good for one business is good for all business—and for all of us. Whether you support them, work for them, or dream of building your own, when businesses run smoothly, everybody feels it. Owners, employees, customers, suppliers—even families. That’s why we’re here: to give every person in business the tools they need to focus on what really matters and do Big Things—whatever big looks like for them.

And for you? Joining MYOB means being part of that impact. It means using your skills to help businesses thrive, shaping the future of work, and growing alongside the people and communities we support. Because while we’re the business of software, we’re really in the business of people. And that makes MYOB Everyone’s Business.

  • Support internal projects such as tax research, M&A activities, post-acquisition integration, and process improvements
  • Collaborate with the Senior Tax Manager, tax authorities, and advisors to address ad hoc tax matters and provide insights for decision-making

What we'd love to see from you...

• • Proven experience in a chartered accounting or corporate environment, with a strong focus on corporate tax
  • Proven ability to explain R&D tax concepts and collaborate effectively with non-tax team members to gather critical data
  • Hands-on experience managing tax processes, including R&D tax claims, GST compliance, tax-effect accounting, income tax, and transfer pricing
