This growing, multi-site accountancy practice is looking to bring in an experienced Manager or Senior Manager to play a key role in the future of the firm.The role: You’ll take ownership of a portfolio of clients, lead a team, and work closely with senior leadership to help drive the direction of the business. There’s a real mix of work here too - accounts, tax and advisory, so it’s not a siloed role.Key responsibilities:
  • Managing a varied portfolio of clients across accounts, tax and advisory
  • Leading, mentoring and developing a team
  • Building strong client relationships
  • Supporting business development and growth initiatives
  • Working alongside Directors on strategic decisions
What they’re looking for:
  • ACA / ACCA qualified
  • Strong background in accountancy practice (ideally 3+ years PQE at Manager level)
  • Proven experience managing a client portfolio
  • Leadership experience and the ambition to progress further
  • Confident with systems such as Xero, Sage, QuickBooks etc.
What’s on offer:
  • Salary up to £60,000
  • Structured route to Directorship
  • Flexible working around core hours
  • 25 days holiday + bank holidays
  • Enhanced pension + life assurance
  • Health cash plan
  • Paid professional subscriptions
  • Ongoing development and potential CTA support
  • Regular bonuses, incentives and staff rewards
  • Paid volunteering day
  • A genuinely supportive, people-first culture
This is the kind of role that doesn’t come up often, especially with a clear pathway to Directorship already mapped out. If you’re already operating at Manager level (or close to it) and want something with real long-term progression, please apply as soon as possible.
