Excellent communication skills and confidence dealing directly with clients and HMRC.
Strong organisational and time-management skills, with the ability to manage multiple deadlines.
The ability to work autonomously while responding effectively to guidance and instruction.
The ability to work from home and attend meetings in Chester weekly or fortnightly, as reasonably required.

Experience using software such as Xero, FreeAgent, TaxCalc, BrightPay, HMRC systems and Microsoft Excel would be advantageous.

Desirable: Experience or confidence with social media and marketing.
