TPF Recruitment is recruiting for a Senior Practice Accountant to join a friendly and relaxed independent accountancy practice based in Gillingham.
This is an excellent opportunity for an experienced practice accountant to manage a varied portfolio of clients, including sole traders, partnerships, SMEs and medium sized limited companies.
The position will primarily focus on preparing and reviewing statutory accounts, alongside management accounts and the associated personal and corporate tax work. You will also work closely with clients, support junior members of the team and assist the directors with technical queries and ad hoc assignments.
The firm offers a welcoming, down to earth working environment and can provide plenty of autonomy for an experienced accountant who is comfortable managing their own workload and client relationships.
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.
