If you like the idea of a firm where clients stay for ten years and you actually get to know them, this is worth a look.
A well-established firm of Chartered Accountants on the Kent and Sussex border is looking for a Tax and Accounts Semi Senior. They work with owner managed and family owned businesses, are registered to carry out audit work, and cover everything from day to day compliance through to business planning, restructuring, sale of business and inheritance tax planning. They also work on fixed fees rather than hourly billing, which shapes how the whole practice runs.
This is a genuinely mixed role across accounts and tax, so you get variety rather than being pushed down one route early.
What you'll be doing:
Preparing accounts for limited companies, sole traders and partnerships
Preparing and submitting corporation tax and personal tax returns
VAT returns and bookkeeping work
Speaking to clients directly and dealing with their day to day queries
Supporting the directors on planning and advisory work as it comes up
What they're looking for:
Experience in an accountancy practice, ideally across both accounts and tax
AAT qualified or ATT/ACCA part qualified, or qualified by experience with the right depth
Comfortable dealing with clients rather than sitting behind the work
Someone who wants variety and is happy to get involved across the board
What's on offer:
£28,000 to £35,000 depending on experience
Full study support
Genuine mix of accounts and tax rather than a narrow compliance seat
Owner managed client base with long standing relationships, so you build proper client contact
Exposure to advisory and planning work alongside the compliance
Small, established firm where you are known rather than a number
Well placed for anyone travelling from Sevenoaks, Tonbridge, East Grinstead or the Surrey border.
If this sounds like the sort of firm you have been looking for, get in touch and we can talk it through properly
