Job Description

Practice Manager / Senior Accountant

Lancaster Salary up to £55,000 depending on experience

Looking for a role in practice where there's a genuine route to Director or Partner level in the not too distant future?

We're working with a well-established and respected accountancy practice in the Lancaster area that is looking to bring in an experienced practice professional who wants more than just a compliance role.

This is a great opportunity for someone who enjoys working closely with clients and wants to take a bigger role in the future direction of a firm.

The Role

You'll work closely with the partners across a broad client portfolio, taking ownership of work while also helping guide and develop more junior members of the team.

Typical responsibilities will include:

• Preparing and reviewing accounts for limited companies, partnerships and sole traders

• Supporting clients with tax planning and general business advice

• Managing a portfolio of clients and acting as their main point of contact

• Reviewing work completed by junior staff and supporting their development

• Getting involved in improving systems, processes and client service

Over time there will be the opportunity to take on more responsibility in the running of the practice, with a clear path towards senior leadership.

What they're looking for

• Practice background within an accountancy firm

• ACA / ACCA qualified or qualified by experience

• Comfortable managing client relationships

• Someone commercially minded who enjoys helping clients, not just producing accounts

• Ambition to progress towards Director or Partner level

The Opportunity

This is a firm with a strong reputation locally and a loyal client base, where people tend to stay for the long term.

They're keen to bring in someone who can become a key part of the business over the coming years rather than just filling a seat.

Salary up to £55,000 depending on experience.
