Accountant – Client Manager
c£33-42,000pa DOE Full-time Hours /Hybrid BGC2214-AM Permanent
A great opportunity to join a well established accountancy firm who are enjoying growth with a continuous demand from new clients for accounting services. As such they are looking to appoint a Client Manager into a newly created position within their offices just north of Newcastle city centre.
A warm welcome awaits the successful Accountant from this close knit team who work well together, spending half the week in the office as a team and a couple of days working independently from home. This hybrid style seems to work well and employees value the flexibility and trust they are afforded.
As an Accountant you will support the leadership team with independently completing year end statutory accounts on behalf of clients, reviewing accounts from more juniors and offering guidance and support where needed. Your client base will consist of limited company, sole traders and partnership accounts for a mixed sector of SME businesses. The position offers those that enjoy the variety and 360 role available within a small practice, giving you exposure also to management accounts VAT returns and tax compliance.
Working predominantly with Xero you will liaise daily with clients, gathering information and providing advice to any queries as well as ensuring the team are delivering a first class service to clients and achieving deadlines. This will involve delegation and allocation of work to the team. Some staff will need guidance, others more regular training as they continue with their learning.
Interest is welcome from either qualified or qualified by experience Accountants as well as Accounts Seniors with some supervisory experience. Applicants must have relevant UK accounting practice experience as this is not a training position.
This is a great role for those that enjoy working in a general practice environment, involved in all aspects of accounting, within a modern and forward thinking environment. The role is offered on a 3 days office and 2 days at home basis.
