If you're working in practice and looking for a role where you can take on more responsibility, manage your own portfolio and build stronger client relationships, this could be a great opportunity.
We're working with an established and growing general practice in Buckinghamshire who are looking to add an Accountant to their team. It's a friendly, supportive firm with a strong focus on client relationships, giving people responsibility and helping their team progress.

What you'll be doing
- Managing a portfolio of mainly SME and owner-managed clients.
- Preparing year-end accounts for limited companies, sole traders and partnerships.
- Completing VAT returns, management accounts and tax returns.
- Speaking directly with clients, handling queries and providing practical accountancy advice.
- Helping clients with bookkeeping and their accounting systems.
- Building strong, long-term relationships and becoming a trusted contact for your clients.
- Working alongside the wider team to make sure clients receive a high level of service.
What we're looking for
- Previous experience within a UK accountancy practice.
- Experience preparing accounts for SME and owner-managed businesses.
- A good understanding of VAT, bookkeeping and general practice accounts.
- AAT qualified, ACCA/ACA part-qualified or qualified, or someone who has built their experience through practice.
- Confident communicating directly with clients and comfortable managing your own portfolio. xgikmsk
