Job description

Accountancy Practice Administrator
Part-time: 3-4 days per week, flexible hours, with the possibility of one day working from home

Think Accountancy & Finance is delighted to be partnering with a growing Accountancy Practice who are looking for a confident, organised Administrator to join their welcoming team and positive culture.

The ideal person will have some knowledge of basic bookkeeping, chasing payments, or credit control, but will be happy in a position with a strong administrative focus.

This role would suit someone who enjoys variety, responsibility, and being at the heart of a busy office. There will be time for a smooth handover, with excellent training and long-term stability.

The Opportunity

This is a highly varied role where no two days look the same. You'll be the first point of contact for clients, supporting the team with onboarding, compliance, liaising with HMRC, administration, and basic bookkeeping tasks. If you enjoy being the "go-to" person and thrive in a varied role, this could be a great fit.

Key Responsibilities

A blend of client management, administrative support, and finance duties, including:

• Acting as the first point of contact via face-to-face, email, and phone

• Managing client onboarding and AML processes

• Chasing payments and supporting credit control

• Supporting with basic bookkeeping duties

• Assisting with payroll (training provided)

• Chasing clients for documentation and missing information

• Supporting with basic HMRC correspondence, including PAYE and VAT registrations

You will receive a full handover with in-depth training over the first 1-2 months to ensure you feel fully confident in the role.

What We're Looking For

• Ideally, some experience in accounts administration or chasing payments

• Confident, proactive, and comfortable in a client‑facing environment

• Strong organisational skills with the ability to juggle multiple tasks

• Someone who enjoys variety and being the central support within a small team

• Payroll or bookkeeping experience is beneficial, but not essential as training can be provided

• A friendly, approachable communicator who builds rapport easily

Salary & Benefits

• Circa 30,000 FTE (pro‑rata for part‑time hours), with some flexibility depending on experience

• Supportive, close‑knit team

If this sounds like the right next step for you, Think Accountancy & Finance would love to hear from you.
