Accounts Senior:
with potential to progress rapidly. Our client is a forward-thinking, technology-driven firm that really cares both about their people and their clients. We have been in existence for nearly 90 years. Over the last few years, this firm has restructured and now comes with a strong, tight team who enjoy spending time together. The role is full-time, and you would be expected to be in the office at least 3 days a week. Due to internal promotions and restructuring, a rare opportunity for a forward-thinking newly qualified/qualified by experience individual has come up to join our team. You would be supported by a nurturing manager who was in your shoes 2 years ago. If you are the right person for us, you will be naturally organised, want to make a difference for clients, and be keen to shine and show us your potential. After a couple of office moves in our history, we are now based in a modern, light, open-plan airy office with all the mod cons you would expect, such as a cracking coffee machine and biscuits on tap! The right individual for us will: Plan their workload: daily, weekly, monthly; Proactively speak up when deadlines have been missed or slipping; Enjoy the feeling of inbox zero at the end of the day; Like doing a short to-do list before they finish for the day; Enjoy using new technology and will want to push the practice and clients to embrace more efficient working practices; Be excellent at keeping clients informed on what is happening with their job and affairs; Have the following attitudes: Be positive - that means being optimistic but pragmatic; Be respectful - this means respecting our clients' time, people in the business, and realizing that we create positive working relationships; Welcome the chance to shine at work; Like asking for feedback from colleagues, managers, and clients; See failure as an opportunity to learn rather than something to be scared of; Realize that work is both a give and take - there will be times when BW helps you, and there will be times when we are busy when you will help us; Be quick to pick up the phone to talk with clients rather than hiding behind emails; Enjoy working with and being part of a small team to help the team succeed; Act with professionalism, meaning we will be proud to call you an employee and our clients will say they really enjoy working with you; Take responsibility, meaning taking pride in the work, looking beyond the work on their desk to see what else they can do for the team and the client, so we deliver great client service; Be qualified or qualified by experience. The work you will be doing includes: Working with an experienced client manager to put together year-end accounts; Simple tax planning and corporation and personal tax returns; Picking up the phone to talk with clients to help get their information; Answering client queries; Optimising clients' use of Xero; Capacity and workflow planning. This role has the capacity to progress, and could in the next 12-24 months for the right person include: Running your own portfolio of clients; Managing junior staff members; Moving up into the ranks of the firm's managers. Professional qualification support (if you are unqualified). KPIs and measures of success: WIP for own jobs is under 45 days; Job Turnaround time (year-end accounts, corporation tax filing, directors' personal tax returns); Turnover vs forecast for own jobs measured monthly; Client churn for own jobs; Accuracy; Number of review points.
