Benefits

Salary: £50,000 - £70,000

You will be joining an independent and growing accountancy practice with an entrepreneurial outlook and a diverse client base.

The firm offers the technical variety and quality of work associated with a larger practice, while retaining a more personal, collaborative environment with direct access to the partners and fewer layers of hierarchy.

You will have the opportunity to influence the direction of the tax department, develop your own client relationships and take ownership of your work, with the support and autonomy needed to succeed.

For the right person, this is an opportunity to make a genuine contribution to the business while developing your advisory expertise and building a long term career.
