Leading organisations trust us because of the quality of our advice. That quality grows from a thorough understanding of their business, and that understanding comes from working closely with them and building long-lasting relationships.

You’ll be encouraged to identify and draw attention to opportunities for enhancing our delivery and providing additional services to organisations we work with.

  • Print copy invoices and client statements as required by supervisor or manager
  • Handle and resolve all basic day-to-day client and business queries
  • Liaise with other key functions of the business as and when required

You’ll be someone with:

  • Excellent communication skills, both orally and in writing
  • An ability to follow a structured process to ensure compliance but able to work on own initiative to resolve queries promptly and accurately, adding value to existing processes as appropriate
  • Numeracy and attention to detail skills
  • The ability to prioritise own workload to meet deadlines from supervisor
  • A willingness to consider improvements to processes and the ability to discuss with supervisor

You’ll be able to be yourself; we’ll recognise and value you for who you are and celebrate and reward your contributions to the business. We’re committed to agile working, and we offer every colleague the opportunity to work in ways that suit you, your teams, and the task at hand.

At BDO, we’ll help you achieve your personal goals and career ambitions, and we have programmes, resources, and frameworks that provide clarity and structure around career development.
