  • A mix of accounts preparation, tax compliance and client queries.
  • Scope to develop your technical, review and team supervision skills.

The Role

We’re recruiting for an Accounts Senior to join our client’s team in Bristol. This could suit an experienced Senior looking for a fresh opportunity or a strong Semi Senior ready to take on more responsibility.

About You

You’ll have a strong background in accounts preparation within an accountancy practice and be comfortable handling assignments independently.

You may be ACA or ACCA qualified, approaching qualification or qualified by experience. Clear communication, sound accounts and tax knowledge, and an organised approach are key.

Familiarity with Xero, QuickBooks or Sage would also be welcome.
