NXTGEN is delighted to be working closely with a long-standing client near Fakenham to recruit an Accounts Assistant. Having supported a number of people into roles within this firm over the years, we've seen first-hand the career growth, progression, and development opportunities they provide. The culture is incredibly supportive, with an internal progression pathway tailored to individual ambitions, and a close-knit team environment that ensures you get the best of both worlds: variety and exposure, alongside the support of colleagues invested in your success.

This is an excellent Accounts Assistant opportunity for someone currently working in practice who has recently become AAT qualified and is eager to continue developing, or for someone who is already AAT qualified and happy to progress their career without pursuing further qualifications. If you are keen to take on more responsibility and climb the ladder with both experience and qualifications, the firm will put the progression pathway in place for you.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Preparing year-end accounts for a range of clients
  • Assisting with management accounts and VAT returns
  • Supporting with bookkeeping duties across varied industries
  • Working closely with Managers and Partners to resolve client queries
  • Reviewing your own work to ensure accuracy and compliance
  • Contributing to the development of junior colleagues within the team

What We're Looking For:

  • AAT qualified (recently qualified or experienced at this level)
  • Experience working within an accountancy practice
  • Strong knowledge of accounting principles and processes
  • Confident using cloud accounting software such as Xero, Sage, or QuickBooks
  • Excellent communication skills and the ability to work effectively within a team

If you're looking to join a supportive firm where your career development is prioritised, whether that's through structured progression or building experience within a stable role, this Accounts Assistant role could be the perfect fit. For more details, please contact Annie today.

Salary is dependent on experience.
