Job Title: Accounts Senior

Your new company

A highly respected and forward‑thinking accountancy practice in Glasgow is looking to welcome an experienced Accounts Senior to their expanding team. Known for their approachable culture and strong client relationships, this firm supports a diverse portfolio of SMEs, owner‑managed businesses and growing companies across Scotland. You’ll be joining a collaborative environment where professional development is genuinely encouraged, and work-life balance is taken seriously.

Your new role

As an Accounts Senior, you will take ownership of preparing year‑end accounts for a varied client base, completing management accounts, and supporting clients with day‑to‑day financial queries. You’ll review work completed by junior colleagues, provide constructive feedback, and help ensure high‑quality service is delivered consistently. You’ll also have the opportunity to get involved in ad‑hoc advisory work, supporting clients through periods of growth or change. This role offers a strong blend of autonomy and support, ideal for someone looking to progress their career within practice.

What you'll need to succeed

You’ll be an experienced accounts professional, ideally with practice background, and either fully qualified (ACCA/ICAS) or qualified by experience with a strong technical foundation. You should be confident preparing statutory accounts, working directly with clients, and managing multiple deadlines. Strong communication skills, attention to detail, and the ability to mentor junior staff will help you thrive. Experience with cloud‑based systems such as Xero or QuickBooks would be beneficial, though not essential.

What you'll get in return

You’ll benefit from a competitive salary package, flexible working options, and clear opportunities for progression. The firm offers ongoing professional development, supportive leadership, and a culture that values its people. You’ll work with a friendly team in a modern Glasgow office, with the chance to build meaningful relationships with clients and play a key role in the continued growth of the practice.
