Haywards Heath, West Sussex | Hybrid
Location:
Haywards Heath, West Sussex (hybrid)
Salary:
Competitive, depending on experience
Contract:
Permanent, full time
Qualification:
Part-qualified AAT, ACA or ACCA (or studying)
Part way through your exams and ready for more responsibility? This Haywards Heath role gives you your own clients, a real variety of work and a firm that takes your development seriously.
ABOUT THE FIRM
My client is a well-established local practice that's part of a large UK and Ireland accountancy and business advisory group. It's a friendly, close-knit office, but you've got the training, resources and specialist colleagues of a much bigger organisation behind you, which is a great setup when you're still building your skills.
THE ROLE
You'll prepare year-end accounts and tax computations for a portfolio of sole traders, partnerships and limited companies, working closely with the seniors and managers. There's also some audit fieldwork, so you get a broader grounding than a pure accounts role. As you grow, you'll start helping the juniors too.
WHAT YOU'LL BE DOING
Preparing year-end accounts for sole traders, partnerships and limited companies
Preparing personal and corporation tax computations
Helping with corporation tax and VAT returns
Supporting audit engagements, including fieldwork
Dealing directly with clients by phone and email
Helping and guiding junior team members
WHO THIS WILL SUIT
Part-qualified AAT, ACA or ACCA, or actively studying
Previous experience in an accountancy practice
Confident with Excel and Microsoft Office
Organised, accurate and happy juggling deadlines
Friendly and comfortable talking to clients
WHAT'S ON OFFER
Hybrid working
Genuine scope for career growth as you progress through your exams
Mixed accounts, tax and audit experience
25 days' holiday plus bank holidays, with the option to buy up to 5 more
Office closure over Christmas
Life assurance at 4x salary, pension, and enhanced family leave and sick pay
GET IN TOUCH
If you're a semi-senior in Mid Sussex, or an AAT or ACCA student with practice experience looking for the next step, I'd love to hear from you. Drop me a line for a confidential chat.
