Client Manager — Accounts, Audit & Tax | Coventry
Ready to lead, not just execute? We're a growing accountancy practice based in Coventry, and we're looking for a Qualified Accountant (ACA/ACCA) with real practice experience to take ownership of a client portfolio, mentor junior team members, and help shape how we deliver for clients across SMEs, corporates, LLPs and beyond. This isn't a "sit behind a desk and process accounts" role. You'll be the trusted advisor clients call first, the technical go-to for your team, and a genuine voice in how we grow.
What you'll be doing
- Own a portfolio — you're the main point of contact, driving timely delivery of accounts, tax and compliance work
- Lead on audit — plan, execute and complete statutory audit engagements as part of a collaborative team
- Get technical — prepare and review management accounts and statutory financial statements under UK GAAP and IFRS
- Develop people — supervise and coach junior colleagues, including across our global service centres
- Cover the full tax picture — review VAT, Corporation Tax, P11Ds and PSA compliance
- Be the trusted advisor — turn client queries into real conversations about improving their financial performance
- Grow the business — build lasting client relationships and spot opportunities to add value
- Keep things moving — support billing, debt management, and junior staff development

- Advanced Excel skills and comfort working across ERP/reporting systems
- A natural communicator who can translate numbers into advice clients actually act on
