Accounts Senior - North Oxford

Accounts Senior - North Oxford

ACA / ACCA | Hybrid | Salary up to £50,000 | Bonus | Overtime Paid

Let's be honest.
Most accountancy jobs sound the same.

"Fast-paced environment."
"Varied role."
"Great opportunity."

This one is different.

This is a Accounts Senior role in a well-established North Oxford accountancy practice that actually trusts its people. The focus isn't on squeezing every billable minute out of the day. It's on doing good work, for good clients, with people who enjoy working together.
They're looking for someone who likes owning client relationships, not just files. Someone who wants autonomy, responsibility, and the space to use their judgement - without being micromanaged.

What the role actually looks like

You'll manage your own portfolio of clients and act as their main point of contact. That means statutory and management accounts, VAT and tax returns, but also proper conversations with clients, forward planning, and helping them make better decisions.
There's real advisory exposure here - tax planning, business planning, reporting, and commercial input all form part of the role. You'll also support junior team members and contribute to a collaborative, down-to-earth team culture.

What they're looking for

• ACA or ACCA qualified (or equivalent), with strong technical fundamentals and the confidence to deal with clients directly.
• You'll be comfortable using Sage, QuickBooks, Xero and Excel, able to work independently, and equally happy being part of a team that pulls in the same direction.

Why this is worth considering

• Salary is up to £50,000, with a monthly bonus scheme and paid overtime on top.
• There's flexibility around working patterns, including hybrid working, plus an Employee Assistance Programme, long service rewards with extra holiday, regular social events, and clear opportunities to progress as the firm grows.
• It's a grown-up environment. No politics. No unnecessary hierarchy. Just a well-run practice that values good people doing good work.

If that sounds like the sort of place you'd do your best work, it's worth a quiet conversation.
