Job Title: Accounts Senior Your new company You'll be joining a long-established, traditional accountancy practice that has supported local businesses for many years. With several experienced team members approaching retirement, the firm is entering a period of positive transition, creating genuine scope for rapid career progression for the right person.This is a steady, close-knit environment where clients value personal service, continuity and trust. The team is friendly and down-to-earth, and while the culture is more traditional than fast-paced, there is a real openness to someone bringing fresh ideas and renewed energy. The client base consists mainly of small, owner-managed businesses, and the partners take pride in doing things properly and delivering dependable, long-standing support. Your new role As an Accounts Senior, with strong Junior candidates also considered, you'll work with a portfolio of micro-entity clients, with most accounts prepared under FRS 105. Your day-to-day work will involve preparing year-end accounts, handling straightforward business tax matters, and assisting clients with bookkeeping and software queries. The workload is hands-on and varied, giving you exposure to the full accounts process.Organisation and confidence in dealing with clients will be key. Knowledge of standard accounting software packages is important, and if you enjoy building relationships or identifying opportunities to support new clients, that will be a real advantage. Hybrid working may be possible, though an office presence is preferred to support collaboration and maintain continuity for clients. What you'll need to succeed You'll have practical experience from a smaller accountancy practice and be comfortable preparing accounts from start to finish. Whether you are part-qualified, fully qualified or qualified by experience, the most important thing is your recent, hands-on exposure to micro-entity and small-business clients.
