Corporate Services Manager (North Sydney)
Own client onboarding and coordinate end-to-end setup of foreign companies entering the Australian market.
Corporate Services Manager (North Sydney)
AusBusinessRegister.com.au is the first point of contact for overseas businesses setting up in Australia. We are looking for a confident, organised Corporate Services Manager to own the client relationship from first quote through to a fully registered, compliant Australian entity.
About the role
This is a client-facing coordination role at the centre of the firm. You will guide foreign clients through company and branch registration, ABN and GST, resident director and local agent appointments, registered office, and the handover into ongoing compliance. You are the person who keeps a setup moving, sequencing ASIC, ATO, banking, and our internal directors and tax teams so the client experiences one smooth process rather than a dozen moving parts. You will balance warmth with rigour, because much of our work involves due diligence and getting details exactly right.
What you will do
- Own client onboarding from initial quote through to completed registration and handover to ongoing compliance
- Scope each engagement, prepare proposals, and coordinate engagement letters and identity and due diligence checks
- Coordinate company and branch registration, ABN and GST, director appointments, and registered office setup across internal teams
- Act as the single point of contact for foreign clients, managing expectations across time zones and cultures
- Track each matter against milestones and chase the dependencies that hold setups up, from ASIC to banking
- Keep the CRM and matter records accurate, and surface upsell or cross-service opportunities to the right team
- Liaise with overseas accountants, lawyers, and the firm’s partner network on referred clients
- Help refine onboarding processes, templates, and the client experience as the firm grows
What you will need
- A degree in business, law, accounting, or equivalent practical experience in professional or corporate services
- Proven client and project coordination experience, ideally in accounting, legal, or corporate services
- A working understanding of Australian business setup: ASIC registration, ABN and GST, and basic compliance obligations
- Excellent written and spoken communication, with the polish to deal with senior international clients
- Strong organisation and the ability to run many matters at once without dropping detail
- A calm, solutions-focused manner under deadline pressure
- Comfort with CRM and workflow tools and a willingness to improve process
- Cultural awareness and patience working across time zones
Why join us
You will be the face of the firm for clients entering a new market, with a direct line to leadership and the variety of working across dozens of industries and countries. We will back you with strong systems and a capable delivery team.

Hybrid and flexible working, built around how good work actually gets done
Professional development and study support, with a clear path to more responsibility
Exposure to international clients establishing and operating in Australia
Work alongside a team led by a CA, CTA and JP, on real corporate and cross-border work
