Fantastic role in an established independent Practice offering a fantastic career opportunity in a friendly team environment. As the Senior Accountant you will play a pivotal role in the technical delivery and relationship management of the firm, focusing on high-level accuracy and client satisfaction. You will take ownership of accounts preparation and client needs with clarity, energy, and a strong focus on small-to-medium practice delivery.

Your primary focus will be the preparation and oversight of statutory accounts and tax compliance. Additionally, you will serve as a key point of contact for clients, utilizing your strong technical grounding to work with a good level of autonomy and explain complex financial matters with personality and professional insight.

Audit experience is considered a bonus, but a strong bias toward core accounts production within a small/medium-sized practice environment is essential. This role is perfectly suited to an experienced practice professional who thrives in a collaborative environment and is ready to start immediately or at the earliest opportunity. If you are looking for a culture where your individual contributions and ability to support the team are truly recognized, look no further.

Job Requirements
  • Proven experience working within a small or medium-sized public practice environment is essential.
  • Strong technical expertise in statutory accounts preparation and general practice compliance.
  • Audit experience is highly advantageous but not strictly mandatory (strong accounts bias required). The successful candidate can be purely accounts based with no audit work - as the role can be tailored around their experience/skill set.
  • Excellent communication skills with the ability to build trusted, long-term relationships and confidently manage clients.
  • A self-motivated, proactive approach to managing workloads independently.

Competitive Salary: £45000- £55000 per annum, dependent on experience and qualifications.
