- Liverpool City Centre | £50,000–£65,000 | Hybrid Working (3 Days Office / 2 Days Home)

- This opportunity is with a well-established independent accountancy practice that has built a strong reputation across the North West for providing high-quality accounting, tax and business advisory services.

- The firm works with a diverse range of businesses and prides itself on developing lasting relationships with clients, providing practical advice and maintaining a personal approach to service delivery.

- The working environment is collaborative and supportive, with an emphasis on professional development and giving individuals the opportunity to take responsibility for their own client portfolios.
