You’ll play a key role in delivering accurate financial information and supporting clients with a range of accounting, audit and compliance needs. This is a varied role offering a blend of accounts preparation and audit work, alongside exposure to tax, bookkeeping and advisory services.

  • Producing management accounts, forecasts and financial projections
  • Preparing personal, partnership and company tax computations, along with VAT returns
  • Preparing discussion documents to accompany client accounts, including detailed analysis and benchmarking
  • Delivering bookkeeping services, including income and expenditure recording and bank reconciliations
  • Monitoring job progress against budgets and ensuring work is completed to agreed timescales
  • Gathering and analysing financial data to support planning and decision‑making
  • Identifying technical or client‑specific issues and recommending practical solutions
  • Liaising with clients and colleagues to build effective working relationships
  • Supporting and supervising junior team members where appropriate

About you

  • AAT / ACCA / ACA qualified (or equivalent), or part‑qualified with relevant experience
  • Previous accounting experience within a private practice environment
  • Comfortable working across a mix of accounts and audit assignments
  • Proficient in automated accounting software and computer‑based accounts and tax programmes
  • Strong MS Excel, Word and Outlook skills
  • Experience with law firm clients and SAR compliance would be advantageous
