What we believe

Creative businesses deserve real financial strength

Count Out Loud was started because creative businesses were being underestimated by their advisors. That belief shapes how we work and who we hire.

Specialists, not generalists

Film, television, content creators, and creative businesses are the entire focus of the practice, not a sideline. We go deep so our clients do not have to explain their world to us.

Advice, not just compliance

Lodging a return is the floor. The work we care about is helping a creative business structure well, plan ahead, and make confident decisions when the stakes are real.

Rigour with warmth

We hold ourselves to the highest standard of technical work and we are genuinely good to deal with. Our clients get both, and so does our team.

Life at Count Out Loud

Work that matters, with people who go deep

You will work closely with experienced accountants on clients you will actually find interesting, from productions claiming the Producer Offset to creators building real businesses from their work.

You are close to the work and close to the people who do it. Your contribution is visible, your growth is supported, and you are never just a number on a timesheet.

  • CA and CPA study support, with leave and mentoring
  • Flexible and hybrid working
  • Genuinely interesting clients across film, TV, and digital media

  • A North Sydney office close to transport

Frequently asked questions

Where is Count Out Loud based?

We are at 1 James Place, North Sydney NSW 2060. Roles are based at the North Sydney office, with flexible and hybrid working arrangements available.

Do I need experience in the creative or entertainment industries to apply?

No. We work with film and television productions, content creators, and creative businesses, but strong accounting and advisory skills matter most. We will teach you how creative industries handle project-based revenue, government offsets, and IP-driven income.

It depends on the role. Senior accounting roles suit a CA or CPA qualified accountant. Intermediate roles suit someone working towards their CA or CPA with study support provided. Client services roles value organisation, warmth, and a genuine interest in looking after clients well.

Does Count Out Loud offer study support?

Yes. We support team members working towards their CA or CPA qualification with study leave, mentoring, and direct exposure to advisory work alongside experienced accountants.
