Carrick Aland Careers
Make a difference to Qld’s farming and family businesses
About Us
Multi-award winning Carrick Aland rural and business financial specialists are one of the region’s oldest professional services firm with offices in Dalby, Chinchilla and Toowoomba. We aim to leverage technology and knowledge to create value for the benefit of our clients, our people and the broader community.
Community is at the heart of everything we do and we actively practice community leadership through volunteering, holding honorary leadership positions or by sponsoring deserving causes. We work with a number of local organisations and proudly sponsor the Dalby Chamber of Commerce & Industry’s Exceptional Service Awards.
With a team of over 30 people, our open and friendly culture encourages you to explore and share new ideas, whilst building a successful individual career at your own pace.
We are always looking for bright minds that have career aspirations. We offer excellent professional and personal development opportunities to build a career that suits you and allows you to work with and learn from our professionals.
One decision, a lifetime of opportunity
As a Cadet, you typically combine work with university studies. Taking this approach takes drive and commitment, but we will provide you with the support you need to succeed.
Whilst we have always been primarily known as “accountants”, we are certainly able to create broader opportunities across other areas of our whole business including Tax Services, Business Advisory, Financial Planning, Self-Managed Superannuation (SMSF) and Audit, offering a diverse range of career opportunities.
We enjoy being able to teach our business and farming clients how to use and make the most of technology. Helping them proactively identify key issues sooner, taking action and allowing more time to investigate ‘why’ rather than just crunch numbers is how we help them to operate on the front foot.
So, if you are looking for a challenging and rewarding career, watch our Careers page which we update with positions that are available across our business.
What are we looking for when recruiting?
Yes, our standards are high, but we’re interested in you as a person, not just an academic record.
Put simply, we are looking for talented people. Team players who are also innovative thinkers; people who relish the challenge of solving problems and those who can communicate their ideas with conviction and passion. People who keep on learning, who want to be at the leading edge of their chosen profession and, importantly, who want to make a difference.
How we recruit
Once a role becomes available, you can apply online. Our recruitment team and managers will review your application and decide whether your individual skills match our requirements.
If your application is successful you will be contacted by a member of the recruitment team and asked to come to our office for a formal interview.
Our interview panel will ask you questions about your life, your time at school, your extra-curricular activities and any work experience you have acquired. You do not have to do any advance preparation for your interview.
No matter what subjects you studied at school, Carrick Aland welcomes all applicants to apply. In assessing an application, we review your academic results, work experience, evidence of leadership and team experiences as well as your level of involvement in school, social and/or community life.
