You'll take ownership of a varied client portfolio, ensuring the delivery of high-quality finance services while helping to develop a modern, technology-led offering centred around Xero and automation.

• Reviewing technical work, identifying risks and supporting the resolution of technical accounting and VAT queries.

• Driving the implementation and development of Xero and associated finance applications.

• Managing, mentoring and developing a team, including workflow planning, resource allocation and scheduling.

• Overseeing billing, working capital, fee recovery and overall commercial performance.

• Supporting business development activities, proposals and client presentations.

We're keen to speak with candidates who have:

• Strong technical knowledge across management accounts, statutory accounts and VAT.

• Experience reviewing work and managing client deliverables.
