VANRATH are delighted to be partnering with a highly successful and growing digital accountancy practice in Lisburn to recruit an Tax Accountant due to continued expansion.

This is an excellent opportunity to join one of Northern Ireland's most progressive and forward-thinking firms, known for its modern approach, strong client relationships, and outstanding reputation within the local market. The practice has built a real buzz around its culture and growth, combining cutting-edge cloud accounting technology with a genuinely people-focused environment.

The firm is particularly strong within the medical sector, so previous experience working with GP practices, consultants, pharmacies, or healthcare clients would be highly advantageous.

The Role

This position offers a varied mix of accounts preparation, tax compliance, and client advisory work with absolutely no audit involvement. You will work closely with an established portfolio of clients, helping them navigate their financial position using modern cloud-based systems and live reporting tools.
This is a brilliant role for someone who enjoys building relationships, embracing technology, and being part of a collaborative and energetic office environment.

What You Will Do

• Complete personal and corporate tax work
• Work closely with clients using cloud accounting software including Xero
• Assist clients with management reporting and digital accounting processes
• Support advisory-led conversations around business performance and growth
• Develop strong working relationships with clients and become a trusted point of contact
• Collaborate with a highly experienced and supportive team in a modern office environment

What's in It for You

• Competitive salary and benefits package
• Modern, digital-first accountancy environment
• Strong focus on advisory and client interaction
• Exposure to an impressive and growing client base
• Excellent progression opportunities within a rapidly expanding practice
• Energetic and collaborative office culture with a genuine team atmosphere
• On-site parking
• Opportunity to work with one of Northern Ireland's leading Xero Platinum Partners

Requirements

• ACA / ACCA qualified or qualified by experience
• Previous experience within accountancy practice
• Strong accounts preparation and tax experience
• Comfortable working directly with clients
• Experience using Xero or cloud accounting software would be highly advantageous
• Medical sector client exposure would be beneficial but not essential
• Positive attitude with strong communication and organisational skills

This is a superb opportunity to join a firm that genuinely embraces innovation while still maintaining a highly personal and relationship-driven approach with both clients and staff. The practice has enjoyed significant growth and continues to invest heavily in both technology and people as they expand further across Northern Ireland.
