Accounting Team Support - Franklin

About Campbell Tyson

Campbell Tyson has been part of the Franklin community for over 100 years, but we're not here to do things the way they've always been done.

We work alongside regional businesses, families, and individuals to help them grow, protect what they've built, and plan for what's next. That means strong relationships, practical advice, and a team that genuinely cares about doing a great job, for our clients and for each other.

This is a hands-on role that sits at the centre of our accounting teams; supporting workflow, coordinating tasks, and assisting with client interactions to ensure work moves smoothly and deadlines are met.

You'll be stepping into an established role with clear processes and strong team support, while also taking ownership of your responsibilities day to day.

This role will suit someone who is organised, reliable, and takes pride in delivering accurate work, while contributing positively to both the team and client experience.

  • Drafting invoices and supporting WIP management

  • Communicating with clients and following up on outstanding information

  • Maintaining accurate client data and systems

  • Coordinating meetings and supporting team schedules

  • Providing day-to-day support to Managers and Directors

 

You are someone who:

  • Is highly organised and manages time effectively in a busy environment

  • Maintains a high level of accuracy and attention to detail

  • Communicates confidently, both written and verbal

  • Takes initiative and follows tasks through to completion

  • Is proactive and solutions-focused when issues arise

  • Enjoys working as part of a team and supporting others

  • Is willing to learn, ask questions, and continue developing your skills

Experience

  • 2 Years previous administration experience (accounting or professional services preferred)

  • Strong Microsoft Office skills

  • Experience with XPM, FYI or Xero (advantageous but not essential)

 

Why Join Us?

At Campbell Tyson, we believe the strength of our business comes from the contribution of our people.

We're a team that supports one another, takes pride in our work, and values doing things properly - for our clients and our community.

In return, you'll get:

  • A supportive, high-performing team environment

  • Exposure to a professional services and advisory setting

  • Ongoing training and development

  • Two additional leave days (Christmas Eve & Easter Tuesday)

  • This role offers the opportunity to gain valuable experience and make a meaningful contribution over the 12-month period. While the position is fixed-term, there may be longer-term opportunities for the right person, depending on team needs at the time.
