A highly regarded, long established independent practice is seeking a senior level accountant to take genuine ownership across a broad and varied client portfolio. This is a hands-on position with real responsibility, direct client relationships, and a clear runway for those who want to grow with a firm that's built to last.
You'll be a central figure in the practice - the kind of person clients ask for by name and colleagues lean on for guidance.
Day to day, that means:
Preparing year-end accounts under UK GAAP for a diverse client base: limited companies, LLPs, partnerships, and sole traders
Leading and supporting statutory audits from planning through to sign-off
Delivering specialist assurance work including grant claim audits and solicitor accounts rules assignments
Producing management accounts and providing hands-on advisory support to SME clients
Maintaining strong client relationships and holding yourself to a high standard of service
Playing an active role in team development and contributing to the wider direction of the practiceWhat You Bring
ACA or ACCA qualified, part-qualified, or qualified by experience - what matters most is solid, credible practice background
Audit experience is a plus, but appetite and attitude will count for more
Confident communicator, comfortable in front of clients and capable of earning their trust
Competent across Xero, Sage, QuickBooks, and MS OfficeWhy This Role
Independent practices of this quality and standing don't recruit at this level often. You'll be joining a firm with a strong reputation, a loyal client base, and a culture that rewards people who want to do excellent work - not just clock in. The structure is there for the right person to build something meaningful here over the long term.
Salary to £65,000, with the broader package and progression reflecting your experience and what you bring to the role.
