Accounts Senior - Thame

Accounts Senior - Thame - £40,000 to £50,000

If you're an Accounts Senior who's ready for something a bit more interesting than just "getting the file finished"… this could be a very good move.

This is an excellent Accounts Senior opportunity with a growing, well-backed accountancy practice that's investing heavily in its people, systems, and future leadership team.

Not just the usual "great progression" line that gets slapped on every job advert like parsley on a pub lunch. There is genuine momentum here.

The team is growing, processes are evolving, and this Accounts Senior role offers the chance to join a firm where you can continue developing technically while also building stronger client relationships and taking on more responsibility.

What's different about this Accounts Senior role?

You won't just be given a pile of accounts jobs and left to disappear under them.

You'll be part of a supportive, experienced team, working closely with managers and partners who want people to develop, ask questions, and gradually take ownership.

The client base is varied and genuinely interesting, with exposure to agricultural clients, landed estates, private clients and owner-managed businesses.

So if you enjoy accounts work but want a role with more variety, better support, and a clearer route forward, this could be a strong next step.
