Summary
Your new company
You'll be joining a growing independent accountancy firm with a strong presence across the Midlands and a collaborative, people-focused culture. With a broad client base and a supportive team around you, this is an environment where you can build your technical experience, take on greater responsibility and continue progressing your career.
Your new role
Joining the Business Services team, you'll manage a varied workload across a portfolio of clients.

You'll have a good understanding of corporation and/or personal tax compliance, strong attention to detail and the ability to manage deadlines effectively. A confident, professional approach to client communication is also important.
Experience with VAT, bookkeeping, management accounts or supporting more junior colleagues would be advantageous.

You'll benefit from varied client work and the opportunity to broaden your skills across accounts, tax and wider business services within a supportive team.
This firm offer genuine flexibility, which includes hybrid working and family-friendly working practices to support work-life balance.
You'll receive 25 days' annual leave plus bank holidays, pension, life assurance, flexible holiday purchase, enhanced family pay, an Employee Assistance Programme, and access to electric car and cycle-to-work schemes.
