Based in Paisley, we are a small, friendly accountancy practice undergoing continued growth. As a result, we are seeking a part-time Accountant to join our practice team for the equivalent of 2 or 3 days per week (there is flexibility on exact working hours). The ideal candidate will have strong experience (at least 5 years) of working in an accounting practice. Professional qualifications are respected, but experience of general practice is far more important for this role. This experience does not have to be in your most recent job and the position may suit someone returning to work after a career break or who has been working in industry but previously worked in practice. You will have a friendly manner, competently supporting our existing and potential clients.
The role will primarily involve:
* Preparing accounts for limited companies and sole-traders
* Preparing CT and self-assessment tax returns
* Preparing VAT returns
* Communicating with clients by email and phone to answer their queries and gather information from them.
* Contacting HMRC by letter and phone to resolve issues for our clients
Experience:
* At least 5 years working in accountancy practice (essential)
* Quickbooks (highly desirable) or other bookkeeping software (desirable)
* Taxcalc or other tax and accounts production software (desirable)
If you thrive on taking responsibility and are confident with your skills, then we want to hear from you!
This is a part-time position for 2-3 days per week. Salary will be pro rata £25k-30k/year based on a 35 hour week.
