Practice Bookkeeper
Bookkeeper (Practice) | Hemel Hempstead | £30,000 – £38,000 DOE | Permanent, Full Time
If you like order, ownership, and variety — you’ll enjoy this.
Some bookkeeping roles are repetitive and reactive.
This one is different.
You’ll join a well-established Hemel Hempstead practice where bookkeeping is treated as a valued part of the service — not an afterthought.
You’ll take responsibility for your own client work, keep records clean and compliant, and build relationships with people who appreciate reliable support.
It suits someone who wants to feel trusted, keep standards high, and work across a broad mix of clients rather than being stuck in one routine.
Your focus will be on:
* Day-to-day bookkeeping using cloud accounting platforms
* Keeping ledgers accurate and reconciled, ready for accounts/VAT deadlines
* VAT returns and compliance support across a range of clients
* CIS submissions and contractor bookkeeping where applicable
* Handling registrations and HMRC liaison as needed
* Spotting issues early and keeping clients on track (rather than firefighting late)
You’ll be a good fit if you:
* Have practice or multi-client bookkeeping experience
* Are confident taking work through to trial balance
* Understands VAT well and can work to deadlines without chasing
* Have CIS exposure (helpful, not essential)
* Communicate clearly with clients and colleagues
