Senior UK Practice Accountant

Description

Accountants4Less is a UK-based accountancy practice seeking a highly competent, reliable and proactive accountant to join our team on a full-time, remote basis from Pakistan.

The successful candidate must have at least 3 years of direct experience working with UK accountancy practices and be confident managing client work independently.

Exceptional written and spoken English is absolutely essential, particularly the ability to communicate professionally with UK clients and draft high-quality emails without supervision.

Our practice primarily uses IRIS Elements, Xero, QuickBooks, BrightPay and BrightManager. Previous experience with these platforms is advantageous, although strong UK accounting experience and the ability to learn new systems are equally important.

We are looking for someone who is organised, detail-oriented, takes ownership of their work and is interested in a stable, long-term position.

• Prepare UK limited company statutory accounts (FRS 105/102) and Corporation Tax returns (CT600).

• Manage client portfolios, including correspondence, queries and filing deadlines.
• Liaise directly with UK clients and HMRC as required.
• Ensure accuracy, compliance and timely completion of all work.
   
• Essential Requirements:
• Minimum 3 years' experience working with UK accountancy practices.
• Exceptional written and spoken English is essential, including the ability to independently draft polished, professional client emails.
