Job Description: Our client is looking for an experienced Bookkeeper / Accountant to join their growing team. This role requires a detail-oriented professional with expertise in month-end close processes, balance sheet reconciliations, and financial reporting.

Experience: 6 years in bookkeeping/accounting, with a strong track record in balance sheet reconciliations and month-end close. Technical Skills: Proficiency in Xero (UK version preferred) or similar accounting software, and strong Microsoft Excel skills. Client-Facing Skills: Experience in liaising with clients, managing relationships professionally, and responding quickly to requests. Attention to Detail: High level of accuracy and ability to spot and resolve discrepancies. Time Management: Ability to work efficiently, prioritize tasks, and meet deadlines. Written English: Excellent grammar and communication skills, as most client interactions will be via email. Proactive & Adaptable: Willing to take on different tasks, learn new things, and help define company processes as the first team member. Independence & Accountability: Capable of managing tasks with minimal supervision and making decisions when required. Education: Associates or Bachelors degree in Accounting, Finance, or a related field (preferred but not required). Certification: ACCA, ICB, or any recognized bookkeeping/accounting qualification is a plus. Additional Skills: Knowledge of UK tax filing, payroll, and financial functions is an advantage.
