Accountant | Growing Independent Practice | Top 50+50 Firm
Looking for more than just another accounts role?
Our client is a fast-growing independent accountancy practice that's quickly making a name for itself. Having recently been recognised in the Top 50+50 Accountancy Firms, they've built a reputation for combining exceptional client service with a modern, forward-thinking approach to accounting and business advisory.
With well-established teams across Accounts, Audit, Tax and Business Advisory, this is a firm that genuinely invests in its people, embraces technology and offers clear opportunities for career progression.
They're now looking for an Accountant to join their expanding team.
The Opportunity
This role is ideal for someone with experience in practice who enjoys managing client relationships as much as producing high-quality accounts.
You'll take ownership of your own portfolio of clients, preparing statutory accounts from planning through to completion, meeting directly with business owners, identifying opportunities to add value, and helping clients achieve their financial goals.
Alongside your client work, you'll have the opportunity to mentor junior colleagues, review work, and play an active role in maintaining the high standards the firm is known for.
This is a fantastic opportunity to join a business that is growing rapidly while retaining the supportive culture and personal feel of an independent practice.
What You'll Be Doing
- Managing a portfolio of clients and delivering statutory accounts to a consistently high standard.
- Planning assignments, including identifying pre-year-end tax planning opportunities.
- Preparing, reviewing and finalising annual accounts within agreed timescales.
- Meeting clients to discuss their accounts, answer queries and identify opportunities for additional advice and services.
- Building long-term relationships through proactive communication and exceptional client service.
- Supporting the onboarding of new clients and maintaining accurate client records.
- Using cloud accounting and practice management software to deliver an efficient, technology-led service.
- Reviewing work completed by junior team members and providing guidance, coaching and constructive feedback.
About You
We're keen to hear from candidates who have:
- Previous experience working within a UK accountancy practice.
- Experience preparing statutory accounts for a varied client portfolio.
- Strong communication skills and confidence building relationships with clients.
- A proactive and organised approach, with excellent attention to detail.
- The ability to manage multiple deadlines while maintaining high standards.
- Experience reviewing or supporting the work of junior colleagues would be advantageous.
Whether you're an experienced Semi Senior looking for your next step, or an established Accountant looking to join a more progressive firm, we'd be delighted to hear from you.
Why Join?
- Join a growing, independent firm recognised as one of the UK's Top 50+50 Accountancy Firms.
- Work with an ambitious leadership team that continues to invest in people, technology and service innovation.
- Enjoy exposure to a broad portfolio of SME and owner-managed business clients.
