*

Liaison with HMRC: Manage client queries and maintain compliance.

What We’re Looking For:

*

Experience: good experience in a similar bookkeeping role, ideally within a professional services or accountancy environment.

*

Sector Knowledge: Experience in commercial and/or agricultural accounting is highly advantageous.

*

VAT Skills: Strong understanding of VAT processes and Making Tax Digital requirements.

*

Software Proficiency: Skilled in Xero, Sage, QuickBooks, AutoEntry, or Farmplan (training provided if required).

*

Qualifications: AAT or equivalent is beneficial but not essential.

*

Independence & Initiative: Able to manage your own workload, meet deadlines, and take ownership of client accounts.

*

Communication: Clear and confident communicator, both written and verbal.

*

Client Focused: Strong relationship-building skills with a commitment to delivering quality service.

Why Apply?

*

Professional Growth: Ongoing training and mentorship opportunities.

*

Flexible Working: A hybrid setup that supports work-life balance.

*

Diverse Client Exposure: Work across a range of sectors, clients and industries.

*

Supportive Culture: A close-knit, collaborative team environment.

*

Attractive Benefits: Competitive salary, enhanced overtime, pension, death-in-service and more.
