Senior Accountant Join a Growing Practice Where Talent Drives Progression

Are you an AAT, ACCA or ACA qualified Accountant, or ready to step up into a Senior Accountant role within practice?

Do you want to work for a firm where progression is based on ability and ambition rather than time served?

Are you tired of corporate red tape and feeling like just another number?

Do you thrive in a role preparing the financial documents for clients to be used for business improvement?

If so, we'd love to hear from you.

Our client is a highly respected, welcoming and thriving accountancy practice in Suffolk. Due to continued growth, they have partnered with Reed to recruit an experienced Senior Accountant to join their friendly and supportive team.

The firm continues to attract new clients as businesses increasingly seek a more personal and proactive service. This sustained growth creates genuine opportunities for career progression, with advancement based on merit and readiness rather than hierarchy or tenure.

Too good to be true? It isn't. The accountants we have successfully placed with this firm over the years will happily testify to the culture, support and development opportunities on offer.

The Role

As a Senior Accountant, you will support the Managers and Partners across a varied portfolio of clients. Responsibilities will include:

• Preparing and reviewing statutory year-end accounts for a wide range of clients, including limited companies, sole traders, groups, LLPs, charities and other not-for-profit organisations.
• Acting as a key point of contact for clients, building strong relationships and providing tailored advice where appropriate.
• Ensuring assignments are completed to a high standard and within agreed deadlines.
• Preparing and reviewing self-assessment tax returns, corporation tax returns and VAT returns.
• Supporting and mentoring trainee accountants, sharing knowledge and encouraging their development.

About You

We are keen to speak with professionals who have developed their career within an accountancy practice environment and have experience working under UK accounting and tax regulations. This is NOT a portfolio management role, but a hands-on Senior Accountant.

Ideally, you will:

• Be ACA, ACCA or AAT qualified (or nearing completion of your qualification).
• Have experience providing accounting and tax services to a diverse client portfolio.
• Enjoy building relationships with clients and delivering excellent service.
• Have experience supporting or mentoring junior team members.
• Be looking for a firm that genuinely values its people and rewards performance and contribution.

What's on Offer?

• Competitive salary, tailored to your experience and qualifications.
• Genuine career progression opportunities.
• Subsidised parking.
• Generous holiday entitlement comparable to larger firms.
• Supportive and collaborative working environment.
• A firm culture that values both professional development and individual contribution.

For a confidential, informal discussion, please contact Natalie Harden at Reed. There is absolutely no pressure or obligation to progress should the opportunity not be right for you.
