• Work with managers and partners to deliver a responsive and reliable service
• Support and mentor junior team members, depending on experience level

Requirements

• ACA or ACCA part-qualified / qualified (study support available if required)
• 1-3 years of experience in a UK practice environment
• Sound knowledge of accounting principles and UK GAAP
• Basic audit experience desirable (but not essential)
• Strong attention to detail and ability to manage multiple deadlines
• Confident communicator with both clients and colleagues
