We are a small but very busy general accountancy practice in Hornchurch near Romford in Essex and are currently seeking a new member of staff to assist with our ever increasing workload.

Ideally, we are looking to appoint somebody with general practice experience who has a working knowledge of the Iris software suite and Microsoft Office programs.

However, we intend to be flexible in our selection process and will consider all applications regardless of experience if we feel that the candidate will benefit the practice in the long term.

The job role will involve accounts preparation, (mainly from incomplete records), and other day to day client assignments such as VAT returns, CIS compliance, bookkeeping etc. The successful applicant will also be required to work closely with the firm's principal in assisting with various aspects of business and personal taxation as well as practice management and administration.

The long term aim of the firm in relation to this appointment will be to provide "hands on" training with a view to progressing the new staff member to a point where they will be able to manage their own client portfolio.

Interested applicants should initially contact us by e-mail providing a CV and an indication of initial salary expectation.
