Senior Bookkeeper – Home working role

Are you an experienced Senior Bookkeeper looking to work in a role 100% home working / remote based where you can work from home for the majority of the time? Are you looking to work for a niche accountancy firm that specialises in working with high profile international and UK based Fashion, Media, Film, TV and Fine Art clients? Are you looking for a role where you can spend most of the time working from home, but may be required to go into the office on a pre agreed ad hoc basis (no more than once a month)? Are you keen to oversee a small bookkeeping department for a niche, growing and profitable accountancy firm with a very interesting and unique high net worth client base? Your role will be varied and will include: reporting directly to the owners of the business, having a hands on role (with no client contact – all client contact is carried out by the Partners), preparing the full range of bookkeeping tasks for clients (Trial Balance, Journal Entries, Bank Reconciliations, Sales and Purchase Ledger, making Payments, Banking etc), preparation of VAT returns, management accounts (if you have experience) and reviewing work prepared by other staff members (mainly statutory accounts which are prepared overseas). Your role will be varied and challenging, and there will be many exciting growth opportunities in the future. The firm uses modern cloud based software including Xero and Dext.
