Overview

£35,000 - £38,000 + Hybrid + Medical Insurance + Benefits

Are you an experienced Bookkeeper with a background in multi-client work who's looking for a stable, long-term role in a professional, well-established practice? If you'd value a calm, supportive office environment (rather than a frantic start-up culture), this could be the opportunity for you. Joining a mature accountancy practice of around 5-6 staff, you'll report to the Accounts Manager and play a key role in supporting a broad mix of clients, from sole traders to partnerships and limited companies. Day-to-day, you'll take ownership of bookkeeping tasks through to trial balance and provide valuable financial insight to clients and the wider team.

Responsibilities

• Bookkeeping using client or in-house software, including VAT returns and quarterly management accounts
• Year-end preparation: balance sheet reconciliations, trial balance, financial statements
• CASLA reports, cashflow reporting and ad hoc financial analysis
• Preparing management accounts and recommending ways to improve performance
• Clerical support for Companies House submissions

Qualifications

• Prior experience managing multiple client accounts in practice, bureau or bookkeeping agency settings
• Solid bookkeeping skills with year-end preparation up to trial balance
• Proficiency in Xero and QuickBooks (Sage less common, training available)
• At least 3 years' relevant bookkeeping experience
• VAT knowledge essential
• IRIS experience would be advantageous, but not essential

Additional Details

Full-time hours are available, though part-time applications are also welcomed, with a minimum of around 20 hours per week; the typical sweet spot is 22-25 hours and a school-hours model is possible. Following probation, hybrid working is offered (though the role is not fully remote due to paperwork flow).

Free on-site parking is available although the office is within walking distance of North Camp station.

This is a rare opportunity to join a supportive, long-established team where people stay. With busy season approaching, the firm is keen to move quickly. If you're an experienced Bookkeeper looking for stability, flexibility and the chance to add value to clients, we'd love to hear from you. Apply now!
