* Encourage best practices and a quality-first mindset across the team

* Contribute ideas for improving client service and internal efficiency

You will need:

* ACCA qualification with 1–2 years of post-qualification experience in practice

* Strong technical accounting knowledge with a confident understanding of tax across corporation, VAT, and personal tax

* Experience in reviewing accounts and mentoring junior staff
