Job Description:

Are you the kind of accountant who loves helping their clients and watching their business grow?

At Accounts and Legal, we’re focused on what it means to be an accountant in a competitive business environment. We don’t just do end of year accounts, we help business owners understand their numbers, make smart decisions, and grow with confidence.

We’re looking for a Senior Accountant to join our Manchester or Liverpool team – someone who’s commercially sharp, emotionally intelligent, and thrives on helping clients succeed.

What you’ll do:

• Prepare year-end accounts for review
• Prepare VAT returns and send Loom videos to clients to explain them
• Contribute to client quarterly catch-up calls
• Proactively monitor client performance and stay in regular contact to offer forward-looking advice, not just reactive support
• Prepare/contribute to management account prep.
• Act as the primary advisor to a portfolio of clients — understanding their goals, challenges, and delivering tailored solutions
• Report to an Assistant Manager and have involvement in team profitability
• Identify new opportunities for clients to improve efficiency, increase profitability, and reduce risk — and guide them through implementation
• Answer technical bookkeeping questions from both clients and other members of staff
