Key Responsibilities

As a member of the accounts team, you'll play a vital role in delivering high-quality, advisory-led services to clients. You'll be responsible for preparing more complex company accounts and consolidated financial statements in accordance with UK GAAP, and occasionally IFRS. Your work will include producing detailed reports and assignments, ensuring accuracy and compliance. You'll also support the audit team on an ad-hoc basis, contributing to a collaborative and high-performing environment.

This role offers the opportunity to take ownership of more challenging assignments, develop your technical expertise, and begin to adopt a Brighter Thinking approach - bringing an advisory mindset to client interactions.
