United Kingdom Parry and Parry Full time

Due to the ongoing growth of our business we're looking for someone to join our team as Accounts Assistant.

Parry and Parry is a small, but rapidly growing, accountancy practice based in Cambridge. We provide a full range of accountancy services to start ups and ambitious businesses in Cambridge, London and the rest of the UK. Our clients tend to be young, fast growing businesses in high tech, biotech, greentech and creative industries, however we have clients in multiple other industries such as catering, childcare and education.

Our practice was founded by David and Lucy Parry. It currently has four team members and we’re looking to add a fifth. It is anticipated that we will continue to grow and add further staff members next year. Our office is based in central Cambridge.

We're looking for someone enthusiastic and diligent for a new role to support a full range of services to our clients. This includes company and sole trader accounting and personal tax. The role is part time (15 - 18 hours a week) and primarily office based, with some flexibility on this, particularly during school holidays (for example in August our team can work fully remotely if they wish).

Responsibilities include:

  • preparation of client management accounts (primarily using QuickBooks Online);
  • preparation of sole trader accounts and personal tax returns
  • preparation and filing of client VAT returns;
  • preparation and filing of annual statutory financial statements and Corporation Tax returns;
  • ad hoc financial analysis to support clients make their business decisions; and
  • some administrative work such as setting up clients on our systems

The ideal candidate would have experience of similar responsibilities in practice or within industry, however our priority is that the candidate is professional, diligent and willing to support the delivery of excellent client service. Training and support for professional exams can be provided if necessary.

Candidates must be able to demonstrate excellent verbal and written communication skills, organisational and time management skills, good IT knowledge include proficiency in MS Office products. Candidates that have past experience of working in a similar role, and familiarity with TaxCalc and QuickBooks Online would be welcome.

If you'd like to learn more about the role, including salary and benefits please send your CV to hello@parryandparry.co.uk. No agencies please.
