Senior Accountant role - commercial focus working closely with SME clients in the West Midlands Your new company My clients are a well-established and highly successful independent accountancy firm in Birmingham. Due to ongoing client success, they are seeking to add to their team in a role which will involve working very closely with SME businesses to support their business decision-making. Your new role Working as a trusted advisor, you will work with a portfolio of clients, spending a large proportion of your time on site to understand their business needs. You will prepare financial statements and management information and will use this to gain insight and will discuss regularly with clients identifying commercial opportunities, trends and risks. This is a client-facing role offering plenty of scope to further hone your commercial accounting acumen, communication skills and ability to produce and interpret meaningful financial information tailored to the needs of your clients.

You will have confident communication skills, excellent organisational skills and will be keen to work with businesses to help them thrive.
