  • Previous experience reviewing junior work and leading teams is essential

  • Strong technical knowledge of FRS 102 and accounting standards

  • Confident communicator, capable of managing client relationships professionally

  • Proficient in cloud-based accounting software (e.g. Xero, QuickBooks, Sage) and relevant accounts production tools
