Our People

We place great emphasis upon the importance of people and the need to develop all staff by providing a nurturing, professional and challenging environment. We recognise that hard work is an important component for success but so too is the ability to have fun and enjoy the challenge. We encourage diversity and advocate cultural tolerance.

Your Opportunity

A sound academic record is a good foundation for a prospective staff member. We believe, however, that a good tertiary record is only one of a number of necessary pre-requisites to succeed at KENNEDY & Co.

We look for people who can communicate effectively in writing as well as deal on a one to one basis.

We encourage people who are confident and who are able to show initiative.

We value people who are able to work under supervision and yet who are flexible enough to be proactive and who learn anticipation in tackling tasks.

We desire analytical skills and the ability to identify the issues and put together a solution that is methodical, accurate and timely.

We have a passion for people who are able to see the big picture and able to provide clients with strategic solutions whilst being able to grasp the fine detail.

We see staff members as people and we value highly their ability to relate to others, who have interests outside of work, who can learn from life's experiences and apply this commonsense to everyday work.

We provide a friendly environment to tackle the challenges with an element of fun so that you will develop as a Chartered Accountant.

All applications will be dealt with on a strictly private and confidential basis. A generous remuneration package based on experience and ability will be offered to successful applicants.
Please address all applications to Staff Partner.
