About the Role
As a Client Manager, you’ll take over a portfolio of clients and be managing everything from accounts preparation and tax compliance to client relationships. While my client is a registered auditor, audit experience isn’t essential for this role.

- Managing your own portfolio of owner-managed and SME clients
- Preparing and reviewing statutory and management accounts
- Handling personal and corporate tax returns
- Overseeing the work of two ACCA trainees
- Communicating directly with clients and building strong, long-term relationships
- Getting involved in occasional audits (if you’re interested – not essential)
Are you the right fit?
- Fully qualified ACA/ACCA
- A solid background in general practice, ideally in a small or medium-sized firm
- Someone who enjoys client work and prefers a balanced role
- Confident managing a portfolio independently
- Friendly, professional, and a good communicator
What you will get in return
- A relaxed, supportive team culture
- Genuine work/life balance – standard hours, no overtime, and one-hour lunch breaks
- No pressure to progress or take on more – just great clients and meaningful work
