York, United Kingdom Townend English Full time

Townend English is a young, dynamic firm of Chartered Accountants with offices in Pocklington and more recently in Hull. An emphasis on client satisfaction through outstanding customer service, supported by investment in technology and staff development has allowed significant growth over the last 9 years.

As an accredited training organisation for the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales, we are now seeking to appoint a trainee to progress as an Apprentice through the Association of Accounting Technicians (AAT), with potential to progress through the ACA qualification thereafter to further develop the practice. We provide fully funded training with paid study leave.

Primarily based in Pocklington, flexibility to travel between both offices is preferred.

To be successful in this role, you’ll have an outgoing personable manner, a good eye for detail, enjoy solving problems and relish the opportunity to work with clients on a one to one basis.

- Excellent communication skills, and an ability to talk to clients and other members of the team
- Analytically minded with exceptional attention to detail
- Client service focussed
- Organised with effective time management skills, able to maintain multiple tasks at once whilst meeting deadlines
- A strong desire to develop and take on additional responsibility

In return we will provide an initial salary of £12,500 per annum, increasing as you progress through your qualifications, 28 days holiday, annual company bonus, private healthcare, a contributory pension, fully funded training and paid leave to fulfil your studies.
