I’m working with a well-established and respected accountancy practice in London that’s looking to bring on a Senior Accountant with strong experience across audit, tax, and accounts. This is a well-rounded role offering a good mix of technical work and client exposure - ideal for someone who’s confident working independently but still collaborative within a team setup.

* Reviewing files with senior staff and finalising reporting packs
Audit
* Leading internal and external audit assignments from planning through to completion
* Carrying out risk assessments, setting materiality levels and sampling
* On-site testing, including stock takes and verification work
* Performing analytical reviews and finalising audit files
Tax
* Preparing VAT returns, personal tax returns, and corporation tax computations
* Assisting with P11Ds and occasional advisory work
General
* Reviewing the work of juniors, resolving technical queries, and ensuring files are ready for manager review
* Providing on-the-job training and mentoring to semi-seniors and juniors
* Spotting cross-selling opportunities across the firm’s wider service offering
What They’re Looking For * ACA/ACCA qualified (or equivalent)
* Around 18+ months post-qualified experience, ideally in a practice dealing with OMBs
* Comfortable managing a varied portfolio across different sectors
* Solid software knowledge (Sage, Xero, CCH, VT, QuickBooks, etc.)
* Excellent communication and organisational skills
* Experience supervising staff and supporting development of junior team members
Sector Experience (nice to have) * Medical
* Food & Hospitality
* Retail
* Manufacturing
* Media & Entertainment
* Professional services (Surveyors, Contractors, etc.)
* EC Sales VAT reporting
* Paperless systems
