Accounts & Audit Senior - #2194344

We're working with a highly respected and award-winning accountancy and business advisory firm looking to add an Accounts & Audit Senior to its growing team.

This is an excellent opportunity for an ambitious practice professional who enjoys variety in their role and wants exposure to accounts, audit, tax, bookkeeping and advisory work. You'll work with a broad client portfolio, including a number of professional services businesses and law firms, developing both your technical expertise and client-facing skills.

Whether you're already working at Senior level or looking to take the next step in your career, this position offers genuine progression opportunities within a supportive and collaborative environment.

As an Accounts & Audit Senior, you'll play a key role in supporting clients with their accounting, audit and compliance requirements while helping deliver high-quality service across a diverse range of sectors.

Responsibilities include:

• Preparing statutory accounts and financial statements for a varied portfolio of clients.
• Supporting and leading audit assignments, including planning, fieldwork and completion stages.
• Producing management accounts, forecasts and financial reports.
• Preparing corporation tax, partnership and personal tax computations.
• Completing VAT returns and bookkeeping assignments.
• Analysing financial information and presenting findings to clients.
• Building strong client relationships and acting as a trusted point of contact.
• Assisting with the development and mentoring of junior team members.
• Monitoring assignment budgets and ensuring work is delivered efficiently and to deadline.

You'll also have the opportunity to work with legal-sector clients. Previous experience with law firms or knowledge of Solicitors Accounts Rules (SAR) would be beneficial but is by no means essential, as full training can be provided.

We're keen to hear from candidates who have:

• ACA, ACCA or AAT qualification (or are part-qualified with strong relevant experience).
• Previous experience working within an accountancy practice environment.
• Exposure to both accounts preparation and audit assignments.
• Strong knowledge of accounting software and Microsoft Excel.
• Excellent organisational and communication skills.
• A proactive approach and a genuine interest in helping clients succeed.

Experience working with law firm clients, legal accounts, or Solicitors Accounts Rules would be advantageous but not essential.

In return, you'll join a firm that is recognised as one of the UK's leading employers and offers outstanding opportunities for career development, wellbeing and work-life balance.

Benefits include:

• Competitive salary
• Employer pension contributions
• Life assurance (up to 4x salary)
