What We’re Looking For:

  • ACA or ACCA part-qualified (or equivalent), with ongoing study

  • Previous experience working in a UK accountancy practice (minimum 1-2 years)

  • Solid understanding of accounting principles, UK GAAP and ideally FRS 102

  • Some audit exposure would be an advantage, but not essential

  • Strong IT skills – experience with cloud-based software such as Xero, QuickBooks or IRIS is a plus

  • Excellent communication skills and a proactive, client-focused approach

  • Organised, detail-oriented, and keen to learn and progress

Why Join?

  • Study support for ACA/ACCA and time off for exams

  • Hybrid working options and flexible hours

  • A friendly, collaborative team culture with regular training and CPD

  • Clear progression opportunities as you develop your skills
