Client Manager
Altrincham
£45,000 – £55,000
This is a brilliant opportunity to work for a boutique accountants….a firm that really cares about its staff.
Positions like this don’t come up locally…the owner is looking for someone they can help shape and mould to become a partner in the future – so as far as careers go they don’t get much better than this.
Being a local boutique firm there is no red tape or hoops to jump through; no shareholders to be accountable to and no micro managing against timesheets.
Their mantra is simple…. Its quality over quantity; and it’s the staff that come first not the clients.
With a long-standing reputation they punch well above their size when it comes to the clients they work with; which means the work you will be doing is interesting – churning out accounts is not their thing.
Working directly under the owner the vision is clear…..you’ll be given the opportunity and training to become a partner in the future; in his words: “the timescale will be driven by them but there are no hurdles in their way other than how quickly they develop. I will give them all of the support, encouragement and tools they need to be a success.”
As a client manager you will still be ‘hands on’ making it great for people who enjoy the doing part of the job….you will work with some great businesses but naturally you will lean to the larger, more complex clients. Predominantly focused on Year End accounts there will also be some Management Accounts work alongside training, mentoring and supporting the juniors in the firm.
With a real emphasis on quality you will find you have less accounts to work on, but more time available to do them – these are not box ticking accounts….there is the chance for you to really get underneath the numbers and add value to your clients – brilliant for anyone that likes to see they are really contributing to their clients success.
Getting there is easy there is a local tram and train stop a short walk away; and free parking on site.
To be considered you must have current UK practice experience…you will be looking for a firm where you can have a long term future and if the partner route is not for you that’s no problem; there is a space for anyone that wants to operate in a senior capacity.
