Audit & Accounts Senior Small Firm

BV RECRUITMENT LTD; London; On-site; GBP 125,000 - 150,000

Job description

Are you a fully ACA or ACCA qualified Audit & Accounts Senior from a practice firm looking to upgrade to a good quality, traditional yet small in size London based accountancy firm? This role involves a varied general practice consisting of audit assignments, statutory accounts preparations, tax returns, and various advisory based projects. You will work in a small firm (15 staff) with excellent development opportunities and future progression on offer.

In this newly created role due to the firm winning many new clients, your responsibilities will be split 50% audit assignments and the remainder between statutory accounts, corporation tax, and ad hoc projects. You will be responsible for:

1. Leading audit assignments from planning to completion
2. Preparing statutory accounts from start to finish
3. Preparing corporation tax computations
4. Managing workflow
5. Liaising with clients
6. Reporting to Manager and Partners
7. Reviewing work of more junior staff
8. Dealing with client queries, technical research, and HMRC queries
9. Supervising junior staff and reviewing their work

This role will provide exposure to a wide range of UK and international clients from sectors including property, legal, financial services, technology, retail, and more. The firm has had success with individuals who have trained outside of London and are looking to relocate for better exposure and opportunities.

To be considered for this role (March 2025), you must have at least three years of experience in a small or medium-sized accountancy firm and be fully ACA or ACCA qualified. Alternatively, candidates from larger firms looking to join a smaller firm for a mixed role and better work-life balance are also welcome. You must have experience in leading audit assignments, preparing statutory accounts and tax returns, reviewing work, and working in an advisory capacity to clients. Familiarity with a wide range of software packages is an advantage, as is a desire to work in a mixed general practice role. You should be well-presented, a team player, and eager to progress rapidly.

This small yet growing accountancy firm has a great reputation for being friendly and supportive, providing staff with challenging and varied roles. You will work in a friendly and growing team with an interesting array of London-based and international clients. This is a unique opportunity for a qualified Audit & Accounts Senior to join an entrepreneurial yet traditional practice and play a significant role in the firm's continued growth.
