If you're an accountant who's quietly open to something better, but not interested in starting from scratch, this role is designed to be flexible, grown into, and negotiated. The level is flexible, Intermediate stepping up or Senior owning a portfolio. Client load and responsibilities can be shaped to suit your experience. Package is negotiable for the right person (not a fixed band). Long-term clients and systems already in place — no chaos. Support team that lets you focus on accounting, not admin. This is a role for someone who wants stability, autonomy, and a firm that’s prepared to meet you halfway.
