General Practice Partner, Accountancy East Sussex Competitive package + clear pathway to equity We re working with a modern, ambitious accountancy and advisory firm looking to appoint a General Practice Partner in East Sussex. This is a genuine leadership opportunity with immediate portfolio ownership, real influence, and a clear route toward future equity participation. The incoming Partner will step into a substantial existing client base and help shape the next phase of growth alongside an established senior partner. This role will appeal to an experienced general practice professional who may already be operating at Partner level, but it could equally suit a high-performing Director, Associate or Senior Manager who is doing the job already and not getting the progression, trust or long-term opportunity they have earned. The brief specifically calls for someone with significant general practice experience, likely including time at a senior level, strong client relationship skills, and the credibility to grow a regional presence. Why this role stands out: • Genuine partnership-level influence from day one • A substantial portfolio to inherit, with allocated recurring fees expected to be around £1m. • Clear progression toward future equity • The chance to help lead an established East Sussex office alongside one other senior partner • Access to wider specialist services including tax advisory, corporate finance, financial planning and outsourced finance support • A real opportunity to deepen client relationships and unlock advisory work across an already strong client base • A modern firm investing in workflow, automation and AI-assisted practice operations • A business that already operates with significant offshore capability embedded into the delivery model, offering scale and broader support The opportunity: This is not a parked portfolio role. It is a chance to take ownership, build profile, strengthen client relationships, develop the team and play a visible part in growing a regional practice. The office has an established reputation across East Sussex and the wider South East, and there is real headroom to broaden client relationships and increase the value of the service offering. What you ll be doing: • Taking ownership of a significant general practice portfolio from day one • Acting as a trusted adviser to owner-managed businesses, entrepreneurial clients and private individuals • Overseeing accounts, corporation tax, personal tax and wider advisory matters across the portfolio • Identifying opportunities around tax planning, remuneration structuring, succession planning, cash extraction and broader strategic advice • Connecting clients with in-house specialists across corporate finance, wealth, tax and outsourced finance • Helping to grow the office through business development, referrals, profile-building and relationship-led new business activity • Providing technical leadership across financial reporting, UK GAAP and broader owner-managed business matters • Coaching and developing team members across the office • Supporting the continued integration and development of an offshore team that is central to service delivery • Contributing to process improvement, technology adoption and more modern ways of working across the practice Who this could suit This could be ideal for you if you are: • A Director, Associate or Senior Manager in general practice who feels ready for a bigger platform • Frustrated by slow progression or a lack of clarity around your route to Partner • Already leading clients, developing business and operating as a senior figure, but without the title, autonomy or reward to match • An established Partner looking for a more commercial, growth-focused and modern environment • ACA, ACCA or equivalent qualified with strong all-round general practice experience • Technically strong, commercially minded and credible with owner-managed businesses • Well networked in East Sussex, Kent or the wider South East, or confident you can build that presence quickly What they re looking for: • Significant post-qualified experience in general practice • A strong background in managing and growing a broad client portfolio • Technical strength across accounting, financial reporting and tax matters affecting owner-managed businesses • Strong relationship-building skills and the ability to win trust quickly • Commercial instinct and an eye for advisory opportunities • A genuine interest in leading and developing people • Openness to modern delivery models, including offshore collaboration, workflow automation and AI-enabled improvements • Willingness to travel to northern India at least annually as part of the wider leadership remit If you are already doing the hard part of a Partner role but are still waiting for the recognition, influence or long-term opportunity to catch up, this could be the point where things change.

Description Climate Application Scientist with a specialisation in land surface leading a dedicated portfolio of projects in the ESA Actionable Climate Information Section, Climate and Long-Term Action Division, Climate Action, Sustainability and Science Department, Directorate of Earth Observation Programmes. ESA's Actionable Climate Information Section is the focal point for the Agency's climate-related activities and is based at the European Centre for Space Applications and Telecommunications (ECSAT), Harwell in Oxfordshire, United Kingdom. The Section aims to increase the availability and use of global, satellite-based Earth observation data for decision-making. The United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) is driving international efforts to combat climate change by limiting the global temperature rise to well below 2 degrees Celsius above pre-industrial levels, as set out in the Paris Agreement. In response to UNFCCC requirements for systematic monitoring of the climate system, ESA launched the Climate Change Initiative (CCI) research programme in 2008. Through the CCI, ESA is developing a suite of global data records of key components of the climate system, known as essential climate variables (ECVs). The climate-quality datasets produced by the CCI are a major contribution to the evidence base used to understand climate change, which drives international action. Climate modellers use ECVs to study drivers, interactions and feedback due to climate change, as well as reservoirs, teleconnections, tipping points and fluxes of energy, water and carbon, and also to predict future change. The CCI also addresses the R&D required to support the UNFCCC Paris Agreement reporting requirements for signatories. Another major focus of the CCI is to connect climate observation and modelling communities through initiatives such as the WCRP, CMIP and CORDEX. For further information, see Duties Reporting to the Head of the Actionable Climate Information Section, you will work to expand the awareness, use and scientific impact of long-term satellite Earth observation (EO) data records for climate science and applications, with a main focus on land surface, but also for other Earth system domains. You will support and advise on the detailed scientific goals of the various international scientific and operational user communities concerned with international climate research, modelling, adaptation and mitigation activities. Your tasks and responsibilities will include: deriving technical specifications for EO-based information related to the land surface, terrestrial carbon and water cycles, including their interactions with the atmosphere, with specific regard to the requirements of climate users, such as long-term stability, accuracy, consistency, availability, error-characterisation and compatibility with climate observations from other space and non-space sources; establishing dialogue with specialised climate user communities, analysing their needs for satellite-based observation of the climate system, assessing their feedback on available EO- based information; initiating and monitoring R&D projects to enhance ESA's capability to generate climate data records that respond to user needs for climate monitoring, reanalysis, modelling, attribution, prediction, trend assessment and data assimilation; validating the results of such developments with the corresponding climate user; promoting the use of EO data for supporting the UNFCCC Global Stocktake commitments decided at COP 21 in Paris in 2015; cooperating with internal and external partner organisations to transfer capabilities developed under a research and demonstration context into an operational and policy-driven framework; maintaining links and ensuring coherence with relevant activities of ESA Member States and international partner organisations; contributing to the Agency's public communications on EO; supporting the work of ESA Graduate Trainees and Research Fellows. Technical competencies Experience in satellite-based remote sensing retrieval techniques, in particular over land surfaces, and their validation Demonstrable skills in science management Knowledge of climate research, in particular related to the land surface, terrestrial carbon and water cycle as well as their interaction with the atmosphere Knowledge of major international initiatives related to Earth Observation and climate research (e.g. UNFCCC, IPCC, EU DGs, GCOS, WCRP, CEOS, CGMS and GEO) Knowledge of the international scientific community in the field of land surface and associated large international scientific research collaborations, preferably using space-based techniques Behavioural competencies Result Orientation Operational Efficiency Fostering Cooperation Relationship Management Continuous Improvement Forward Thinking For more information, please refer to the ESA Core Behavioural Competencies guidebook Education and professional experience A PhD related to Earth System Science in general and/or the land surface, or any other appropriate scientific field is required for this post together with at least 2 years of relevant professional experience. Additional requirements At least two years' work experience post-PhD in related remote-sensing applications development, research or another relevant position. Particular importance will be attached to your personal scientific ability, peer credibility, flexibility and adaptability. You must be capable of working effectively in a team with minimum supervision, and have excellent communication and presentation skills. Technical and computational knowledge (including machine learning) geared to climate would be an asset. Interacting with the various stakeholders relevant to this position will involve a certain amount of travel. You should therefore be prepared to travel frequently. Diversity, Equity and Inclusiveness ESA is an equal opportunity employer, committed to achieving diversity within the workforce and creating an inclusive working environment. We therefore welcome applications from all qualified candidates irrespective of gender, sexual orientation, ethnicity, religious beliefs, age, disability or other characteristics. At the Agency we value diversity, and we welcome people with disabilities. Whenever possible, we seek to accommodate individuals with disabilities by providing the necessary support at the workplace.
