    • Inputting and reconciling bank transactions

    • Supporting the wider team to hit client deadlines What we're looking for:

    • Strong attention to detail

    • Good organisation and the ability to manage your own workload

    • A basic grasp of bookkeeping, or the willingness to learn

    • Experience with Xero, Sage, Dext or QuickBooks is a bonus, not a must Why join:

    • Flexible part-time hours

    • A friendly, supportive team

    • Exposure to a wide range of clients

    • Modern, cloud-based systems A good option if you want to keep your hand in, or get a proper foot in the door of practice. Happy to talk it through.
