We are a small, friendly, established and expanding practice based in Derby. We are looking for accountant/chartered accountant with experience of working in an accountancy environment. This is a full time role.
We look after a diverse and interesting range of clients including many owner-managed businesses, high net worth individuals, as well as some trusts, charities and partnerships.
We aim to provide an excellent and personal service to our growing band of loyal clients.
Who we are looking for
An enthusiastic and practical accountant capable of managing a diverse portfolio of clients, and able to produce client accounts and other deliverables accurately and efficiently.
Good verbal and written communication skills are essential. The role will involve regularly speaking to and meeting with clients as well as writing clear concise letters to them.
This is an excellent opportunity to develop and broaden your accountancy career providing exposure to more varied responsibilities than are often available in bigger practices.
You should have at least 1-2 years experience of working in a busy accountancy environment.
The Role
The role involves producing statutory accounts for filing at Companies House from both client accounting software and source records such as bank statements etc.
Production of personal tax returns, company tax returns and VAT returns and dealing with associated client queries.
Handling a varied portfolio of clients and being able to take responsibility for meeting all their relevant deadlines whilst providing an enthusiastic and personable service.
As we are a small practice candidates must be willing to help with other clients as well as practice management tasks on an ad hoc basis.
