About the role

From trust accounting to end-of-month processing, you'll help legal professionals get the most from the tools they rely on every day — solving real problems for real people, one ticket at a time.
It's a role for someone who loves getting to the bottom of things, enjoys the satisfaction of a resolved issue, and takes genuine pride in great customer service.
What you'll do
- Be the first point of contact for our clients — answering calls, emails and support tickets, and owning each request from start to resolution.
- Diagnose and resolve accounting-related software issues across trust accounting, office accounting, billing, receipting, payments, bank reconciliations, journals and the general ledger.
- Support clients through end-of-month processing, financial reporting, trust transfers, GST, creditors and debtors.
- Guide clients on functionality and best-practice workflows so they get the most out of Practice Evolve.
- Prioritise and manage support requests in line with our processes and service level expectations.
- Escalate the trickier issues with clear, thorough documentation — staying across the client's experience until it's fully resolved.
- Keep accurate records of every interaction in our ticketing system, building a shared knowledge base the whole team can draw on.
- Work closely with our Support, Development and Product teams to solve problems, share knowledge and drive continuous improvement.
What you'll bring
- A working knowledge of accounting principles and accounting software, including general ledger transactions, billing, receipting, reconciliations and financial reporting.
- A solid understanding of trust accounting — legal trust accounting experience is a real plus.
- Strong customer service skills and a genuine desire to help people.
- Clear, confident communication — you can explain technical concepts simply, both in writing and over the phone.
- Sound analytical and problem-solving skills, with sharp attention to detail.
- The ability to juggle multiple priorities and stay composed in a fast-paced support environment.
- A self-starter's mindset — happy working independently while contributing to a collaborative team.
- Familiarity with legal practice management software or legal accounting processes (advantageous, but not essential).
