Descrição da vaga

Senior Accounts Manager – Sevenoaks

£70,000 - £100,000 DOE | Independent Practice | Senior-Level Opportunity

In this role, you'll oversee a portfolio of clients, review accounts and tax work, provide tax advice and help manage the team, while remaining hands‑on with more complex assignments.

What's on Offer?

• £70,000 - £100,000 depending on experience
• Rare opportunity to take on a key role within an independent practice
• Varied position combining accounts, tax and team management
• Plenty of autonomy and responsibility
• Direct involvement with the firm's Partners
• Opportunity to influence how the practice operates and develops
• Friendly, close-knit team where your experience will be valued
• Long-term career prospects within an established firm

We're working with an independent accountancy practice in Sevenoaks that's looking for an experienced Senior Accounts Manager to become an integral part of its team.

This is a particularly interesting opportunity for someone who enjoys the variety and personal approach of a smaller practice.

Our client isn't looking for someone who simply delegates work and oversees a portfolio from a distance. They want an experienced accountant who's happy to roll their sleeves up, get involved in the detail and help keep everything running smoothly.

The Role

Your responsibilities will include:

• Reviewing statutory accounts for limited companies, sole traders and partnerships
• Overseeing corporation tax and personal tax compliance
• Providing practical tax advice to clients
• Preparing and reviewing more complex accounting and tax assignments
• Using accounting and tax software to manage work efficiently
• Monitoring staff workloads, workflow and deadlines
• Reviewing work and maintaining high technical standards
• Supporting and developing junior and senior team members
• Managing client relationships and dealing with technical queries
• Working closely with the Partners on the day-to-day running of the practice

About You

You'll need to be ACA, FCA, ACCA or FCCA qualified, with substantial experience gained within a UK accountancy practice.

Experience working in a smaller or independent firm is particularly important, as you'll need to be comfortable handling a broad range of responsibilities rather than specialising in just one area.

We're looking for someone who's technically strong, approachable and organised, but above all, someone who isn't afraid to get stuck in when needed.
