Description
A leading firm of Chartered Accountants in Okehampton is looking for an experienced and versatile Audit and Accounts Senior to join their well-regarded and friendly team, and we are pleased to be supporting them in finding the right individual for a role that offers genuine variety across both audit and accounts, a loyal and interesting client base, and a firm that genuinely cares about the people within it, with flexible working, a company pension, and much more on offer.
Crowe Watson Recruitment has a genuine understanding of the South West accountancy market, including the smaller market towns and rural practices that form such an important part of the region’s professional services landscape. The team takes exactly the same level of care and attention to every search it undertakes, regardless of the size of the firm or the location of the role, and that consistency is something candidates across the South West have come to value highly when working with Crowe Watson on their next career move.
Okehampton sits on the edge of Dartmoor and offers an outstanding quality of life alongside a genuine and well-established local business community, and this firm has built a loyal and varied client base that reflects the character and diversity of the area it serves. As Audit and Accounts Senior, you will work across both disciplines, leading audit assignments and preparing accounts for a broad range of clients, giving you the kind of well-rounded practical experience that is genuinely valuable at this stage of a professional career. The firm offers a supportive and inclusive working environment, a varied and engaging workload, and a clear pathway for progression for any candidate who is ready to take on greater responsibility and make a real contribution to a well-run and well-regarded local practice. You might not meet all the criteria, but if you are passionate about developing yourself and your career, we’d love to hear from you.
Crowe Watson is acting as an Employment Agency. References to pay rates are indicative and salary is dependent on experience.
