Job description

Are you a fully ACA qualified Accounts & Audit Senior / General Practice Senior from an independent practice firm looking to upgrade to a very good quality, traditional medium size London based accountancy firm and carry out a varied role consisting of accounts preparation work, tax returns audit assignments and various advisory based projects? Do you have first time passes in your ACA? Are you keen to work in a very good quality firm with excellent progression to manager grade on offer? In this newly created role due to growth, your time will be split 50% statutory accounts preparation and tax returns with 50% spent on audit & assurance assignments. Based in a general practice role in a good quality ACA training firm with 65 staff, you will be responsible for preparing statutory accounts for a wide range of clients, most being Limited Companies and FRS 102 accounts, drafting corporation tax computations and leading audit assignments from planning to completion. You will deal with client queries, technical research, HMRC queries and also be responsible for supervising juniors and reviewing their work. Your role will be varied, challenging and hugely enjoyable with great progression prospects to manager grade on offer. In this new role, you will gain exposure to a wide range of UK and international clients, including groups, from sectors including property, legal, financial services, technology, media and entertainment, renewable energy, retail and other interesting sectors. The firm would look at a recently qualified ACA, someone with some post qualification experience, and also an ACA finalist with one or two exams remaining and a strong exam history (first time passes in all ACA exams). This firm has had great success with people who have trained outside of London and want to relocate to a London firm for the exposure and opportunities on offer.

To be considered for this new role (June 2025) you must have at least three years experience, probably in a medium or large size accountancy firm and be fully ACA qualified (either newly qualified or with a few years post qualification experience). First time passes are highly desirable. You must have experience of preparing statutory accounts, corporation tax returns, leading medium to large size audits from planning to completion, supervising juniors and managing clients. Experience of a wide range of software packages, including Caseware would be an advantage as is a desire to work in a mixed general practice role. You must be professional, be a team player, and be looking to progress at a rapid pace. The firm welcomes applications from candidates looking to relocate to London from another UK based practice firm.

This growing accountancy firm has a great reputation for being a friendly and supportive place to work and providing their staff with challenging and varied roles. You will work in a friendly and growing team, and you can expect to work on an interesting array of high profile and growing London based clients as well as international clients. The firm is growing at a rapid rate due to many new business wins from larger accountancy firms. This is a unique opportunity for an ACA qualified Accounts & Audit Senior / General Practice Senior to join an entrepreneurial and forward thinking practice and play a role of great importance to the continued growth of the firm. It is also a great opportunity to progress to Manager level in a short space of time.
