This is a superb opportunity for an ambitious individual to join a well-established firm with a strong local presence and a varied client portfolio.

Role Overview:
The successful individual will take on a mixed role, with a focus on 80% accounts preparation and 20% audit assignments. You will work with a diverse client base that includes SMEs, owner-managed businesses, and not-for-profits across a range of sectors.

    Leading or supporting on a small portfolio of audit assignments, primarily onsite or in-house, for a range of clients
    Liaising directly with clients, building strong working relationships, and acting as a point of contact
    Supervising and reviewing work prepared by junior staff
    Ensuring assignments are completed to a high standard and in line with deadlines
    Supporting partners and managers with ad-hoc advisory and project work as required

Requirements:
    ACA / ACCA Qualified or at final stages of qualification
    Strong experience in accounts preparation within a UK practice environment
    Some audit exposure is desirable (full training can be provided if needed)
    Excellent communication and organisational skills
    A proactive approach and the ability to work independently and as part of a team

Benefits:
    Competitive salary based on experience
    Flexible working and hybrid options
    Clear progression path and regular CPD
    Supportive, people-focused culture within a respected independent firm
