Graduate Accounting Internship – Sydney : Tax Season 2025

Nervous about interviews or lacking experience?

We don’t just place interns. We train you, prepare you, and place you — so you’re confident, capable, and ready to impress.

We’re currently placing select graduates with a boutique accounting firm in Sydney CBD for the upcoming tax season — but only after one month of targeted preparation to help you stand out.

 

How the Program Works  

  1. Intensive Pre-Placement Training (4-8 weeks)
    You’ll complete hands-on training in:

    • Xero & Xero Practice Manager (XPM)

    • Australian tax return preparation (individual, BAS, GST)

    • Professional communication & interview skills

  1. This phase ensures you’re not just “ready” — but interview-worthy.

  2. Internship Placement (3 months)
    We’ll place you with a vetted host firm in Sydney, where you’ll:

    • Prepare and lodge individual tax returns

    • Support BAS compliance and bank reconciliations

    • Work with real client files in Xero/XPM

    • Shadow experienced public practice accountants

  1. Career Mentoring & Long-Term Goal Setting
    Post-placement, we support you in turning the internship into a long-term opportunity — with ongoing career coaching and employer follow-ups.

 

This Is Not Just a Placement  

Unlike generic placement companies, NextGen iQ focuses on quality, not just quantity.
We only place candidates we’ve trained and vetted ourselves, ensuring our partner firms get capable talent — and you walk in confident and prepared.
