Partner consulting graduate
Partner consulting grads help our partners switch to Xero, and assist with migration projects and webinars.
The role
Working with the partner consulting team, you’ll support our accounting and bookkeeping customers, known as our partners, by collaborating with the partner sales team to migrate our partners to Xero’s cloud-based tools.
As a partner consulting grad, you’ll present Xero demonstrations, run technical consulting sessions, and manage data conversion projects. You’ll also gain valuable exposure to many different types of accounting practices.
What we’d like to see from you
We’re looking for someone with a sound understanding of finance and accounting principles, including how data flows through accounting systems. We welcome grads with a commerce, accounting or related degree.
Ideally you’ll:
- have experience with managing data with advanced use of Excel
- be an excellent communicator, both written and verbally
- not be afraid of being in the spotlight
- have a great work ethic, initiative and results focus
If this sounds like you, get in touch! We’d love to hear from you.
How to apply
Due to the number of applications we receive, we ask that you only apply for one role in one location. Please take some time to research each opportunity available before submitting your application.
If you’re invited to a grad day, it will include technical and soft skills interviews, as well as group and individual challenges.
Applications open on 28 February 2022 and close on 29 April 2022.
