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