• Building strong relationships with clients, responding to queries and gathering information
• Working closely with colleagues to help manage workflow and support the wider team

• Previous experience working within an accountancy practice
• Experience with bookkeeping, VAT, and accounts preparation
• Exposure to tax work would be advantageous but is not essential
• Familiarity with Sage would be beneficial, although training can be provided
• A proactive and dependable approach with a genuine eagerness to learn
• Strong organisational skills and the ability to manage your own workload effectively
• Someone seeking a stable, long-term opportunity where they can grow and develop

If you're looking for a role where you can continue to learn, take on greater responsibility, and become an integral part of a growing practice, we'd love to hear from you.
