Accountant / Client Manager – Growing Accountancy Practice

Bourne End, Bucks

£40,000-£45,000 per annum + Benefits + Amazing Biscuits

Who We Are

We’re a family-run accountancy firm with a loyal portfolio of small business clients across Bucks and beyond. We believe numbers tell a story, and our job is to make that story clear, simple, and sometimes even fun.

You’ll be joining a down-to-earth, slightly biscuit-obsessed team that helps clients understand their finances, stay compliant, and build stronger businesses.

Why You’ll Like Us

  • Salary: £40,000-£45,000 (sadly not paid in biscuits)
  • 30 days’ holiday: So you can do something more exciting than bank recs
  • Pension scheme: Because one day, you’ll actually want to retire
  • Cycle-to-Work scheme: Or just cycle to the biscuit tin - we don’t judge
  • Small, friendly team: You’re more than just a payroll number here
  • Flexible working: So you can make the school play and catch that delivery
  • Great clients: They appreciate plain-English advice (and often bring cake)
  • Professional development: We cover your professional membership fees and CPD costs in full

If you’re looking for an accountant job in Bourne End where you’ll gain genuine hands-on experience across bookkeeping, VAT, accounts, and tax, you’ll love it here. Whether you’ve completed AAT Level 4 or are working towards ACCA, you’ll be supported by an experienced practice owner who’s invested in helping you grow.

The Mission (Should You Choose to Accept It)

  • Keep calm when the bank feed refuses to reconcile
  • Wrestle VAT returns into submission
  • Produce beautiful year-end accounts and tax returns
  • Be the person clients call before they panic-Google “tax deadline”
  • Tame messy bookkeeping and make it shine
  • Build strong relationships with small business clients and support their goals

Your Superpowers

  • AAT Level 4 qualified (or similar) with real experience in an accountancy practice
  • Confident with FRS 105 / 102 1A reporting
  • Friendly, approachable, and able to explain accounts without jargon
  • Motivated by helping clients succeed – not just by balancing the books
  • Comfortable managing your own client portfolio and providing practical advice
