Trainee Accountant - Start Your Career the Right Way

Looking to launch your career in accountancy with purpose, not just paperwork?
We're hiring a Trainee Accountant who wants more than a stepping stone. If you're sharp, curious, and ready to learn fast, this could be the start of something long-term.

The Job

This is a real trainee role. That means proper hands-on experience from the start, not endless admin and watching over someone else's shoulder.

You'll be:

• Assisting with bookkeeping, accounts prep, and financial statements
• Helping with VAT returns, tax returns, and payroll
• Using various accounting tools (training will be provided)
• Talking to real clients, solving real problems
• Learning directly from qualified, experienced accountants

What You'll Need

• A-Levels or equivalent (a degree is great, but not a deal-breaker)
• Good with numbers and detail
• Clear communicator
• Eager to learn, unafraid to ask questions
• Any familiarity with accounting software or Excel is a bonus, but not essential

What You'll Get

This isn't a "see how it goes" internship. It's a full-time, permanent role with real progression.

• Study Support for AAT, ACCA or equivalent
• Proper Client Exposure from day one
• Mentorship & Growth - we promote from within
• Work Culture that values people over timesheets
• Salary: 24,000- 26,000

The Details

• Job Type: Full-time, Permanent
• Location: On-site, Monday to Friday
• Education: A-Levels or equivalent preferred
