We are an accountancy firm based in West Swindon. We have 12 staff and are looking to recruit an accountant with experience in practice. Salary dependent on skills, experience and qualification.
The job entails:
- preparation of accounts for limited companies – particularly our more challenging sets of accounts. This will involve liaising with clients while preparing the accounts;
- being a Client Support Manager for a portfolio of clients. This means getting to know your clients as individuals and as businesses and being their main in-office contact;
- checking/preparing VAT returns for clients;
- possibly some preparation of income tax returns;
- advising/training clients on Xero;
- we give on-the-job training, as necessary, and support staff through professional exams if they show commitment;
- we expect our staff to be able to give standard tax/accountancy/bookkeeping advice – but this can develop over time.
We are looking for someone with several years’ experience in preparing accounts for small businesses (up to £7m turnover), and with excellent communication skills (both writing and verbally).
We are looking to grow as a business and we aim to constantly improve the service to our clients - so we need someone who is enthusiastic and a proper team player.
