Your new company

This is an opportunity to join a well-established and highly regarded mid-tier accountancy practice with a strong presence across Scotland. The firm has built an excellent reputation for delivering tailored advisory and compliance services to a diverse client base, including entrepreneurial owner-managed businesses. You will be based in Edinburgh, with hybrid options available, within a supportive and collaborative environment that places real value on professional development and client relationships.

Your new role

As an Accounts Senior, you will take ownership of a varied portfolio of clients, focusing on the preparation of statutory accounts for limited companies, often of a more complex nature. The role offers a high level of client exposure, with regular liaison with business owners, acting as a trusted point of contact and building long-term relationships. Alongside your client responsibilities, you will support and oversee a small team of 3–4 staff members, providing guidance on technical queries and contributing to their development. This is a well-rounded position suited to someone who enjoys both hands-on delivery work and mentoring others.

What you'll need to succeed

You will ideally have experience gained within a practice environment, with a strong grounding in accounts preparation and a proven ability to manage client relationships effectively. Exposure to mid-tier firms would be advantageous, although not essential. Strong organisational skills and attention to detail will be key, alongside the confidence to communicate clearly with both clients and colleagues. Given the nature of the role, you should be comfortable working closely with business owners and handling more complex assignments with minimal supervision.

What you'll get in return

In return, you will receive a competitive salary based on experience, alongside the opportunity to progress your career within a reputable firm that values its people. The role offers genuine client exposure, responsibility and variety, as well as the chance to develop your leadership skills through managing and mentoring a small team.
