Audit & Accounts Senior

North West London | Hybrid Working | £50,000 - £60,000 + Outstanding Progression

Looking for more than year-end accounts and compliance work?

This is an opportunity to join a highly regarded independent Accountancy practice that works as a genuine adviser to ambitious business owners. Rather than operating in siloed departments, the firm takes a collaborative approach, giving its team exposure to a wide range of client challenges, strategic projects and business advisory work.

With a strong reputation in the owner-managed business market, the firm has built long-standing relationships with entrepreneurial clients who value proactive advice and trusted partnerships. As a result, you'll gain exposure to work that goes far beyond the traditional audit and accounts role.

As an Audit & Accounts Senior, you'll work closely with Managers and Partners, supporting a diverse portfolio of clients ranging from growing owner-managed businesses and SMEs through to more complex group structures and international entities.

You'll be involved in key client conversations, helping business owners navigate important commercial decisions while developing your own technical and advisory skills.

This role offers a genuine blend of audit, accounts and client advisory exposure, making it ideal for someone who enjoys variety and wants to broaden their experience.

• Contributing to a collaborative team environment focused on exceptional client service.

• Strong experience gained within UK accountancy practice.
• Audit experience is highly desirable, although candidates with strong accounts backgrounds and an interest in developing audit skills will also be considered.
• Experience managing assignments from planning through to completion.
• Commercially minded with strong analytical skills.
• Excellent communication and relationship-building abilities.
• Comfortable working both independently and as part of a collaborative team.
• Experience with cloud accounting software such as Xero, Quick Books or similar would be advantageous.

• Competitive salary package comparable with larger firms.
• Hybrid and flexible working arrangements.
• Core working hours with flexibility around start and finish times.
• 25 days holiday plus bank holidays.
• Strong social and team-focused culture.
