-Reviewing Work: As a Senior Accountant, you will be responsible for reviewing the work of other more junior members of staff.
-Platform Development: Collaborate directly with our product and engineering teams, providing valuable feedback and insights to improve our accounting platform.
-Process Improvements: You will actively drive process improvements e.g. improving firm-wide client communications, implementing improved review processes etc. updating practice management workflows etc.
What We're Looking For:
-Qualifications: A recognised accounting qualification (e.g., ACA, ACCA, AAT).
-Experience: Proven experience as a senior accountant/accountant, ideally with a focus on small businesses or limited companies.
-Technical: Strong knowledge of UK accounting standards, tax laws, payroll, and VAT regulations, and this is reflected in your work.
-Communication: Excellent communication and interpersonal skills, with the ability to explain complex financial concepts clearly and concisely.
-Tech-Savvy: You’re interested in accounting technology and excited by the idea of shaping a new accounting platform from the ground up. Experience with various accounting software is a plus.
-UK-Based: A UK right to work status is required. This role is fully remote, but ideally you would be based in Herts, Beds or Cambs, and be willing to occasionally travel for co-working meet-ups.
Why Join Mighty?
-Impact: This is a chance to have a real impact, not just on our company and your clients, but also on the future of accounting software for small businesses.
