Senior Accountant

We're working with a well-established and growing accountancy practice in Liverpool who are looking to add an Accountant to their team. They have a strong reputation locally and offer a supportive environment where people are encouraged to develop rather than getting stuck doing the same work year after year.

* Preparing VAT returns, management accounts and tax returns.

* Looking after a portfolio of SME and owner-managed clients.

* Dealing directly with clients and handling day-to-day queries.

* Assisting clients with bookkeeping and cloud accounting software.

* Working closely with the wider team and supporting clients with their accounting needs.

What we're looking for

* Previous experience within a UK accountancy practice.

* Experience preparing accounts for a range of SME clients.

* Good knowledge of VAT, bookkeeping and general practice work.

* AAT qualified, ACCA/ACA part-qualified or qualified, or qualified through experience.

* Someone personable and confident with clients who wants to continue developing their career
