RecruitAbility is looking for a fully qualified accountant to join a small, close-knit accountancy practice.
This friendly, professional team takes a proactive approach to supporting its clients. Alongside preparing accounts, you'll help business owners understand their financial position, manage cash flow and make informed decisions.
With flexible part-time hours and predominantly home-based working, this opportunity could suit someone returning to work or an experienced accountant looking for a better balance around other commitments. School-friendly hours will be considered.
The role will initially be approximately 21 hours per week, with the opportunity to increase your hours as the business grows.
What you'll be doing
- Preparing and reviewing accounts and financial reports.
- Producing management accounts, budgets and cash flow forecasts.
- Building client relationships and attending meetings to discuss financial performance and future plans.
- Explaining financial information clearly and offering practical support to business owners.

What we're looking for
- A fully qualified accountant, ideally ACA or ACCA.
- Two years' relevant experience, with practice experience preferred.
- Confidence working independently, managing priorities and taking responsibility for your work.
- Strong communication skills and a personable approach to client relationships.
- Good attention to detail and an interest in helping businesses develop.
- Experience with accounting software; familiarity with Xero, QuickBooks or Sage would be helpful.
- A driving licence and access to a car, required for the office location and client visits.
If you're fully qualified but your experience doesn't match every point above, we'd still welcome your application.
What's on offer
- Approximately 21 hours per week, with flexibility over how these are arranged.
- School-friendly working patterns considered.
- Hybrid working, with Tuesdays in the office and remaining hours at home.
- Usual office hours of 8.30am-4pm, with flexibility over your agreed schedule.
- 20 days' annual leave plus bank holidays, pro rata.
- An additional day's annual leave for each year of service, up to five extra days, pro rata.
