Trainee Accountant | Crowborough, East Sussex | £25,000 – £28,000 | Full Study Support
If you have made a start in accounts and want a firm that will genuinely back you through your qualification, this one is worth a proper look.
A well-established independent practice in Crowborough is looking for a Trainee Accountant to join their team. They have been going since 2012 and look after sole traders and owner-managed businesses across a real spread of sectors, from construction and manufacturing to marketing and consultancy. That variety matters when you are learning. You see far more in your first two years here than you would sitting in one industry.
This is a proper training role rather than a data entry job with a training label on it. You will be given real client work early, with senior accountants and the directors close enough to ask when you get stuck.
What you'll be doing:
- Preparing accounts for sole traders, partnerships and limited companies
- Bookkeeping and VAT returns
- Assisting with personal and corporate tax returns
- Working across cloud accounting software
- Speaking with clients and handling day-to-day queries
What they're looking for:
- Some accounting or practice experience, even a year of it
- Studying towards AAT, or ready to start
- Someone local to Crowborough or the surrounding villages
- Keen to learn, happy to ask questions, comfortable picking up the phone
What's on offer:
- £25,000 – £28,000 depending on experience
- Full study support towards AAT, with a clear route on to ACA or ACCA afterwards
- A small, close team where you will be known rather than numbered
- Broad exposure across accounts, tax and bookkeeping from the start
- Long-term progression, the firm is growing and promotes from within
If you are early in your accountancy career and want to train somewhere that will actually teach you, let's have a chat.
