The employer is an independent firm and proud of it. They’ve built their reputation by doing the basics brilliantly: high standards, technical excellence, and the kind of personal service that bigger firms simply can’t replicate. As the practice continues to grow, they’re looking for someone who wants to build a real career in a supportive, friendly environment where their development genuinely matters.

This is a great role for someone early in their accountancy career, looking for the right firm to qualify with, or for an AAT-qualified candidate who enjoys bookkeeping.

  • Preparation of accounts for a varied portfolio of clients
  • Bookkeeping, VAT returns and management accounts
  • Liaising directly with clients and developing your own relationships
  • Working closely with senior team members and partners on more complex assignments
  • Building the technical foundations of a strong long-term career

  • Some practice experience preferred, but attitude matters more than years on the CV
  • AAT studier, AAT-qualified, or early-stage ACA / ACCA candidate
  • Strong attention to detail and pride in the quality of your work
  • Someone who values being part of a close-knit team, not a number in a corporate structure

If you’re looking for the kind of practice where you’ll be properly invested in, properly developed, and properly looked after  this is one worth a conversation.

Apply directly or get in touch with the team at ALF Recruit for a private and confidential discussion.
