Accounts & TAx Semi-Senior

As a recruiter, I am delighted to be working with a small, growing, and long-established accountancy firm based in Folkestone, who are looking to appoint an Accounts & Bookkeeping Semi-Senior.

This is a fantastic opportunity for someone with solid practice experience who is keen to build on their foundations and take the next step in their career. The firm offers a supportive environment, exposure to a genuinely interesting mix of clients, and an excellent platform to continue professional training and development.

The Role

You will work closely with senior team members and partners, supporting a varied client portfolio and gaining broad experience across accounts and bookkeeping.

Key responsibilities include:

• Preparation of accounts for sole traders, partnerships, and limited companies

• Bookkeeping duties, including VAT returns

• Assisting with management accounts where appropriate

• Liaising with clients and responding to day-to-day queries

• Supporting senior staff across a range of general practice work

Candidate Requirements

• In excess of two years’ experience within UK accountancy practice

• Strong grounding in bookkeeping and accounts preparation

• Studying AAT, ACCA, ACA, or keen to continue with professional training

• Well organised with good attention to detail

• Ambitious and motivated to progress within practice

Why This Role Stands Out

• Small, friendly firm with a strong local reputation

• Exposure to a varied and interesting client base

• Excellent environment for ongoing training and development

• Real opportunity to progress as the firm continues to grow

• Folkestone location with a supportive and approachable culture

This position would suit a Semi-Senior who is looking for responsibility, development, and a firm that will actively invest in their future.
