Job description

Your new company
A well-established specialist law firm in the City of London is looking to appoint an experienced Accounts Manager to oversee its finance function. The firm has built a strong reputation within its chosen practice areas and offers a collaborative, professional environment where employees are given autonomy and the opportunity to make a real impact. This is an excellent opportunity to join a close-knit team and play a key role in supporting the continued success of the business.

Your new role
Reporting directly to senior leadership, you will take ownership of the day-to-day finance operation, ensuring accurate financial management, regulatory compliance, and robust reporting. This is a hands-on position suited to someone who enjoys a varied workload and thrives in a standalone role. Key responsibilities include:

  • Managing daily legal cashiering activities, including payments, receipts, transfers, billing and account reconciliations.
  • Producing monthly management accounts, budgets and financial reports.
  • Ensuring compliance with Solicitors Accounts Rules and maintaining accurate client and office account records.
  • Supporting external audits and liaising with accountants and other professional advisers.
  • Managing payroll, pension administration and statutory submissions.
  • Overseeing VAT, PAYE, National Insurance and other regulatory reporting requirements.
  • Managing billing, disbursements and supplier payments.
  • Maintaining and improving finance systems, controls and processes.
  • Supporting wider compliance and risk management activities where required.


What you'll need to succeed
To be successful in this role, you will have previous experience working within a law firm finance team and possess strong knowledge of Solicitors Accounts Rules. You will have a background in legal cashiering, bookkeeping and management accounting, alongside experience supporting audits and financial reporting. Strong organisational skills, attention to detail and the ability to work independently are essential. An accounting qualification would be advantageous but is not a prerequisite.


What you'll get in return
In return, you'll join a respected professional services organisation where you can take ownership of the finance function and work closely with senior decision-makers. The role offers a varied workload, a collaborative culture and the opportunity to make a meaningful contribution to the business. You'll receive a salary of £60,000-£65,000, alongside a competitive benefits package, long-term stability and the chance to further develop your expertise within a specialist sector.
