Are you newly qualified or qualified ACA or ACCA, with experience gained within an accountancy practice?

Perhaps you’re technically strong and ready for a broader role where you can take ownership of a client portfolio, build genuine relationships and help business owners make better commercial decisions.

This is an exciting opportunity to join a forward-thinking accountancy practice that stands out from the crowd. Its modern approach and distinctive offering have contributed to its recent success, and with ambitious growth plans for the next 12 months and beyond, it’s a great time to join the team.

You’ll be surrounded by a technically knowledgeable and impressive team, working alongside a hands-on, forward-thinking manager who breaks the mould. You’ll have the autonomy to manage your work, contribute ideas and develop your commercial and advisory skills as the business grows.

What will you be doing?

You’ll take ownership of a portfolio of ambitious owner-managed businesses, acting as a trusted point of contact and delivering a high-quality, commercially focused service.

Your responsibilities will include:

  • Managing a portfolio of clients and building strong, trusted relationships
  • Preparing and delivering meaningful management information
  • Helping clients understand their financial performance and make informed business decisions
  • Preparing and reviewing statutory accounts and corporation tax returns
  • Overseeing VAT returns and ensuring work is completed accurately and on time
  • Using Xero and other cloud-accounting tools to improve processes and provide useful insight
  • Supporting and reviewing the work of junior team members where appropriate
  • Maintaining high standards of accuracy, professionalism and client service

What are we looking for?

This opportunity would suit a newly qualified or qualified accountant who has developed a strong technical foundation within an accountancy practice and is ready to take greater ownership of client relationships and advisory work.

You will have:

  • A newly qualified or qualified ACA or ACCA
  • Relevant experience gained within an accountancy practice
  • Strong experience preparing statutory accounts and corporation tax returns
  • Experience producing management information and explaining financial performance to clients
  • Strong knowledge of Xero and cloud-accounting systems
  • Excellent attention to detail and the confidence to take ownership of deadlines
  • A genuine interest in how businesses operate and grow
  • A confident, professional and personable approach

What’s in it for you?

  • Salary of £35,000–£45,000
  • 22 days’ annual leave plus bank holidays and a day off for your birthday
  • Monthly performance bonus
  • Health and wellbeing benefits

This isn’t your typical traditional accountancy practice. The team is modern, commercially minded and genuinely passionate about making a difference to the businesses they support.
