Responsibilities: Manage a varied portfolio of personal tax clients including sole traders, partnerships, landlords and company directors. Review Self Assessment tax returns along with sole trader, partnership and rental accounts. Meet clients throughout the year, providing practical advice in straightforward language. Act as the main point of contact, building trusted long-term relationships. Mentor and support an Accounts Technician, helping develop their technical ability and confidence. Manage workflow, deadlines and identify opportunities to improve client service and internal processes. The Ideal Candidate Experience working within an accountancy practice.
