• Overseeing and delegating to a team of juniors
• Reporting to and working closely with one Manager and one Partner in particular
• Responsible for a varied workload, including accounts & tax for the Partner portfolio
• Heavily relied on as a key member of staff, progression to Assistant Manager

The person in mind

• Finalists are welcome to apply
• Previous experience supervising juniors
• Experience working closely with clients
• Ready to hit the ground running and be a reliable member of staff for the Manager
• Dynamic and a real presence in the office
• Strong accounts and tax experience, knowledge of audit is desirable but not essential

Salary

The salary for this role is flexible because this is such a key hire for the firm. It is likely that you will start somewhere between £28-38k but this is expected to increase as your impact on the firm is felt!

The salary advertised should be seen as a guide and has been set by the agency.
