Bookkeeper & Accounts Assistant
Join a growing accountancy practice where you'll do more than just bookkeeping.
Smart Accounting Solutions is a modern accountancy practice based in Penistone. We work with small and medium-sized businesses across Yorkshire and beyond, helping them take the stress out of bookkeeping, VAT, year-end accounts and tax through straightforward advice, modern technology and a genuinely personal service.
We're growing, and we're looking for the right person to join our team.
This isn't just another bookkeeping job
We're looking for someone who enjoys bookkeeping and also wants to continue developing their skills.
You'll have the opportunity to become involved in management accounts and year-end accounts preparation as you develop in the role because we believe the best bookkeepers understand the whole accounting process, not just the bookkeeping.
If you're looking for a role where you can continue to learn and develop your skills, we'd love to hear from you.
What you'll be doing
Bookkeeping for a range of small and medium-sized clients

Who we're looking for

Previous accountancy practice experience would be an advantage, but it isn't essential.
Experience of cloud accounting software is preferred. We use QuickBooks Online, but don't worry if you've mainly used Xero, Sage or another bookkeeping package. The principles are very similar, and we'll provide full training to help you get up and running.
Why join Smart Accounting Solutions?
We're a friendly and growing practice where you'll become an important part of the business.
Rather than being just another employee, you'll build lasting relationships with our clients, work closely with our team and have the opportunity to develop your skills as you grow with the practice.
We believe in investing in people, sharing knowledge and creating an environment where everyone continues to learn.
