Accounts Senior / Senior Accountant

London | Hybrid Working | Up to £65,000 + Bonus

TPF Recruitment is proud to be recruiting on behalf of a highly respected and growing accountancy practice in London. This is an excellent opportunity for an experienced Accounts Senior, Senior Accountant, or Practice Accountant looking to take the next step in their career within a progressive and commercially focused firm.

The practice advises a broad portfolio of SMEs, owner managed businesses, limited companies, international groups and entrepreneurial clients across sectors including technology, healthcare, property, renewable energy and retail.

This is not a traditional accounts preparation role. You'll work closely with partners, manage your own client portfolio and gain exposure to a wide range of accounts, tax, audit and advisory projects, with a clear route towards management and leadership.

Accounts Senior Job Overview

As an Accounts Senior, you will take ownership of a portfolio of clients while supporting the delivery of accounting, tax and advisory services. You'll be a trusted point of contact for clients and play an active role in helping businesses achieve their financial and commercial objectives.

Key Responsibilities

  • Preparing and reviewing statutory accounts for limited companies.
  • Preparing and reviewing corporation tax returns.
  • Managing a portfolio of business clients.
  • Building strong client relationships and acting as a trusted adviser.
  • Preparing management accounts and financial reports.
  • Cash flow forecasting, budgeting and business planning.
  • Assisting with audit assignments and assurance work.
  • Supporting due diligence, business valuations and corporate finance projects.
  • Conducting technical accounting and tax research.
  • Liaising with HMRC on behalf of clients.
  • Mentoring and supporting junior accountants.
  • Working alongside partners on strategic growth initiatives and practice development.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
