You'll enjoy plenty of variety, with the opportunity to work both from the office and on site with clients, giving you exposure to different businesses and industries.

Joining a collaborative and highly experienced leadership team, you'll be given the autonomy to manage your own portfolio while being supported to continue developing your skills and career. The firm has built an outstanding reputation, not only for the quality of service it delivers, but also for creating an environment where people genuinely enjoy coming to work and build long term careers.

Key Responsibilities

• Managing the bookkeeping requirements for a varied portfolio of clients across a wide range of sectors.
• Building strong, long term relationships and becoming a trusted point of contact for your clients.
• Visiting clients on site where required, providing hands on bookkeeping support and continuity.
• Completing bookkeeping, bank reconciliations and maintaining accurate financial records.
• Preparing and submitting VAT returns.
• Supporting clients with month end processes and management information.

• Comfortable managing your own workload and working independently.
• Excellent communication skills with the ability to build trusted client relationships.
• A proactive mindset with a genuine passion for delivering an outstanding client experience.

You'll be joining a business with an exceptional culture, excellent staff retention and genuine opportunities to develop your career as the firm continues its exciting growth journey.
