• Mileage allowance for travel
• Generous holiday + pension
• Laptop provided for flexible working
• Regular team socials (because culture matters)

What you’ll be getting stuck into

• Managing a portfolio of 4–7 clients
• Producing insightful, tailored management accounts
• Balance sheet reconciliations & clean, accurate reporting
• Analysing profitability across projects, products & revenue streams
• Preparing and submitting VAT returns
• Supporting forecasting and forward planning
• Cashflow forecasting to give clients real financial visibility

What you’ll bring

• AAT qualified (ACA / ACCA / CIMA studying or qualified = a bonus)
• Experience in a similar role (practice or industry)
• Strong Sage 50 & Xero knowledge
• Confident with Excel and client communication
• Solid experience across management accounts, VAT, reconciliations & forecasting

Why this role?

Because you’re ready for more than just ticking boxes.

You want ownership, variety, and influence — and that’s exactly what this role delivers.
