BC Financial Search is working with an established independent accountancy practice in Radcliffe that is looking to appoint an experienced Practice Accountant to join its team. This is a broad, hands-on role that would suit somebody who already has solid experience working within an accountancy practice and is comfortable getting involved across a variety of accounting responsibilities.
The firm is looking for somebody who can come into the business, get to know its clients, systems and way of working, and then quickly become a dependable member of the team. You don't necessarily need to be qualified; practical accountancy practice experience and the ability to manage a varied workload are more important.
Duties and responsibilities
The role will offer plenty of variety and will involve supporting a broad portfolio of clients. Responsibilities will include:
- Preparing year-end accounts for sole traders, partnerships and limited companies
- Producing accounts from client records and bookkeeping information
- Completing bookkeeping for a range of clients
- Preparing and submitting VAT returns
- Supporting clients with their day-to-day accounting requirements
- Assisting with the continued introduction and development of Making Tax Digital (MTD)
- Using cloud accounting and accountancy software to maintain accurate client records
- Liaising directly with clients and dealing with accounting queries
- Working closely with colleagues to ensure client deadlines are met
- Getting involved with occasional audit assignments where required
- Supporting the wider practice with a varied mix of accounts and general practice work
The position is deliberately broad, so it would particularly suit somebody who enjoys working across different areas rather than being restricted to one specific part of accountancy.
Experience and qualifications
The firm is looking for somebody with previous experience working within an accountancy practice. Ideally, you will have:
- Previous experience preparing year-end accounts within an accountancy practice
- Experience working with sole traders, partnerships and limited companies
