Client Manager

I am partnering with a respected and forward-thinking independent practice in Tonbridge to appoint an accomplished Client Manager. This is an outstanding opportunity for a qualified accountant with at least five years of Practice experience who is ready to take on a strategic leadership role within a highly regarded firm.
 
The successful candidate will oversee a diverse fee base, manage and develop a small team, and play an integral role in shaping the future growth of the client portfolio. Candidates with a particular strength in audit or tax will be especially welcomed, although a strong general practice background is equally valuable.

This position offers genuine autonomy, visibility within the leadership group and a platform to influence both client service and commercial direction.

Key Responsibilities

• Managing a mixed portfolio of clients, ensuring exceptional service delivery

• Leading, mentoring and developing a small team

• Overseeing accounts, tax and advisory work, with the opportunity to utilise an audit or tax specialism

• Taking a central role in business development, networking and portfolio growth

• Working closely with partners on client strategy, planning and operational improvements

About You

• Fully qualified accountant (ACA/ACCA or equivalent)

• Minimum five years of Practice experience

• Strong technical grounding, with audit or tax expertise considered highly advantageous

• Confident communicator with proven client-facing experience

• Leadership qualities with a desire to develop people and drive continual improvement

• Commercially minded and motivated to contribute to firm-wide growth

This is a fantastic opportunity for an ambitious professional seeking a leadership role with genuine progression potential. If you are looking for a position where you can combine client management, technical expertise and strategic influence, I would welcome a confidential conversation.
