About You

We’re looking for someone with solid experience within an accountancy practice who can confidently manage a varied workload and enjoys working directly with clients.

You’ll ideally have experience across both accounts and tax, with a preference for candidates who have experience preparing trust tax returns.

You don’t need to be fully ACA or ACCA qualified — what’s more important is having strong practical experience, a good understanding of accounts and tax, and the ambition to continue developing your career.
