Join a strategic accounting, tax and business solutions Boutique Advisory Firm Your New Company This isn't your average accountancy practice. You'll be joining a boutique advisory firm that's carved out a reputation for delivering strategic accounting, tax, and business solutions that actually make a difference. Their client list? Think high-profile UK and international owner-managed businesses, including names you'd recognise from the media and household brands. They don't just tick compliance boxes-they give clients the clarity and commercial insight to make bold, long-term decisions. If you're tired of being a cog in a big machine, this is where your expertise will matter. Your New Role You'll step into a Chartered Accountant role that's more than just crunching numbers. Here's a flavour of what you'll be doing: Preparing statutory and management accounts for clients who make headlines, not headaches. Delegating tasks and keeping junior team members on track (without turning into David Brent). Mentoring trainees and shaping the next generation of accountants. Spotting opportunities for improvement and challenging the "we've always done it this way" brigade. Supporting Partners and Senior Management with their client portfolios. Getting involved in ad hoc projects-due diligence, funding proposals, cash flow forecasting-because variety is the spice of life. Assisting with audit planning and execution. Working closely with the tax team and external professionals to keep things slick. What You'll Need to Succeed You'll probably have: ACA / ACCA qualification (or be close to it). A collaborative mindset but happy to fly solo when needed. Experience with accounting software like Xero, QuickBooks, IRIS, or CCH. Strong analytical chops and commercial awareness. Organisational skills that would make Marie Kondo proud. Communication skills that don't put people to sleep. What You'll Get in Return A culture that values collaboration over corporate nonsense. Hybrid and flexible working-because life happens. A competitive salary that stacks up against the big firms. Modern offices and a social scene that's actually fun. 25 days holiday plus bank holidays.
