Accounts Senior
£45,000 - £55,000 + Career Progression + Client-Focused Practice Environment
Ready to step into a role where you can take ownership of clients and continue developing your career?
We're working with a highly regarded and growing accountancy practice that is looking to appoint an ambitious Accounts Senior to join their team. This is an excellent opportunity for an ACA or ACCA qualified professional, or someone nearing qualification, who is looking for a role offering genuine variety, increased responsibility, and the opportunity to build strong client relationships. Unlike a purely compliance-focused position, this role provides exposure across accounts, tax, management information, and advisory work, allowing you to broaden your technical skillset while working closely with experienced Partners and Directors.
The Opportunity
As an Accounts Senior, you'll manage a varied portfolio of clients including sole traders, partnerships, and limited companies, supporting them with a full range of accounting requirements. You'll take ownership of delivering high-quality work, reviewing assignments prepared by junior colleagues, and acting as a trusted point of contact for clients. This is a role suited to someone who enjoys the variety of general practice and wants to continue progressing within a supportive and ambitious firm.
