Accounts & Tax Manager

A successful and expanding firm of Chartered Accountants is looking to appoint an experienced Accounts & Tax Manager to join its growing leadership team.

This is an opportunity to become involved in far more than statutory compliance. You'll work closely with business owners, influence client strategy and play an active role in developing both the team and the future direction of the practice.

Whether you're an experienced Manager or an ambitious Assistant Manager ready to step up, this role offers genuine long-term progression within a supportive and forward-thinking firm.

Rather than simply managing deadlines, you'll become a trusted adviser to a portfolio of businesses, helping clients make informed financial decisions whilst ensuring the highest standards of service are maintained.

Typical duties will include:

\n
• Acting as the relationship lead for a portfolio of SME and owner-managed business clients.
\n
• Interpreting financial information and presenting practical recommendations to clients.
\n
• Overseeing delivery of year-end compliance work across multiple service lines.
\n
• Supporting business owners with tax-efficient planning and commercial decisions.
\n
• Coaching qualified and part-qualified accountants to maximise performance.
\n
• Working alongside the Partners on client meetings and strategic projects.
\n
• Identifying opportunities to improve internal processes and client service.
\n
• Contributing towards the continued growth of the practice through networking and referrals.
\n

You'll already have experience working within a UK accountancy practice and enjoy building lasting relationships with clients.

Ideally you'll be ACA or ACCA qualified and comfortable working with a varied client portfolio, although attitude and commercial awareness are just as important as technical ability.

You'll be someone who enjoys taking ownership, solving problems and helping clients achieve their goals.

You'll join a firm that genuinely invests in its people and encourages progression.

Benefits include:

\n
• Competitive salary.
\n
• Flexible and hybrid working.
\n
• Ongoing professional development.
\n
• Clear progression into senior leadership.
\n
• Modern technology and cloud-based systems.
\n
• Friendly, collaborative culture.
\n
• Generous holiday allowance and benefits package.
