Senior Accountant - Practice

Senior Accountant - Practice

Ready to step into a role with real variety, better clients, and work that actually stretches you?

We're working with a well-established and growing accountancy practice that's looking to appoint a Senior Accountant to join their team. This is a genuinely varied role, offering exposure to a broad portfolio of SME and larger clients, including businesses with revenues into the millions.

If you're currently feeling boxed into repetitive work or a narrow client base, this could be a refreshing next step.

You’ll take ownership of a diverse client portfolio, working closely with business owners and senior stakeholders. The work goes beyond one-dimensional compliance and offers real scope to use your technical skills and judgement.

• Preparing and reviewing statutory accounts
• Supporting audit work where required
• Managing corporation and personal tax compliance
• Reviewing and overseeing VAT (this is not a VAT-only role)
• Leading and attending client meetings
• Acting as a trusted advisor to clients across a range of sectors
• Supporting and mentoring junior team members where appropriate

• A mix of SME and larger businesses
• Turnovers ranging from early-stage companies through to multi-million-pound organisations
• Varied industries and structures - no narrow or repetitive portfolios

• An experienced Senior Accountant or practice-trained accountant operating at this level
• Comfortable managing clients end-to-end
• Strong technically, but equally confident in front of clients
• Someone who enjoys understanding the detail, asking the right questions, and delivering quality work
• Years of experience matters less than the breadth and quality of work you’ve done

• Exposure to more complex and interesting clients
• A role focused on quality, not volume
• A chance to move away from narrow, repetitive portfolios
• Supportive practice environment with room to grow
