Looking for an Australian Resident Accountant to Act as Public Officer for Our New Company. Hi there, We are setting up a new Australian private limited company and we are looking for a reliable Australian resident accountant who can assist us with ongoing ATO and ASIC compliance and act as the Public Officer for our business. We already operate a regulated international payments/remittance company abroad and are expanding into the Australian market. We need someone who understands the traditional way of keeping company books clean, handling tax notices properly, and making sure everything stays compliant. What We Need: ✔ Act as Public Officer for our company (must be an Australian resident) ✔ Receive any ATO correspondence on our behalf and forward it to us ✔ Handle basic tax registrations (ABN, TFN setup, GST if required) ✔ Provide guidance on ASIC/ATO compliance requirements ✔ Optional: Ongoing bookkeeping and annual tax filings ✔ Must be trustworthy, responsive, and comfortable working with an international fintech/remittance company About Us: We operate a long-running licensed fintech/remittance business internationally and are now opening an Australian entity for expansion. Everything is fully compliant; we simply need a local professional to act as our tax representative. Ideal Candidate: – Australian resident (mandatory) – Registered tax agent or accountant – Experience with small companies, foreign-owned entities, or fintechs is a plus – Comfortable communicating clearly and forwarding notices on time – Someone steady, reliable, and easy to work with Engagement: This will be a long-term relationship. We will pay a monthly fee or annual retainer — whatever suits your structure. If you’re a straightforward, detail-oriented accountant who likes things done properly, we would love to work with you. Please include: – Your experience – Whether you have acted as Public Officer before – Your proposed fee structure
