About Franks Accountants
Franks Accountants is a modern, independent accountancy firm based in Wetherby, supporting ambitious small businesses across Yorkshire and beyond.
We work closely with owner-managed businesses, providing not only accounting and tax compliance, but also proactive advice to help our clients grow and succeed.
Our firm embraces cloud technology, modern systems and a personal approach to client service, allowing us to build long-term relationships with the businesses we support.
Due to continued growth, we are looking for a Senior Accountant with the ambition to progress into a Client Manager role.
This is an excellent opportunity for someone working in practice who wants greater responsibility, more client interaction and a clear progression path within a growing firm.
Our Culture
At Franks Accountants we pride ourselves on being approachable, supportive and genuinely invested in our clients and our team.
We believe in developing our people, encouraging ideas and creating an environment where everyone feels comfortable contributing and improving the way we work.
Our focus is on building real relationships with our clients and helping them make better financial decisions — not just producing accounts once a year.
You’ll be joining a friendly and collaborative team that values professional development, modern working practices and excellent client service.
The Role
This role is designed to develop into a Client Manager position, where you will ultimately manage your own portfolio of clients.
Initially, your responsibilities will include:
• Preparing statutory accounts for limited companies
• Preparing and reviewing VAT returns
• Producing management accounts
• Corporation tax and personal tax compliance
• Supporting clients with Xero and other cloud accounting software
• Client onboarding and cloud system set-up
• Communicating directly with clients and answering queries
• Supporting the senior team with advisory work
Over time, the role will develop into managing your own client portfolio and acting as a trusted adviser to business owners.
About You
We are looking for someone who is organised, proactive and enjoys working closely with clients.
You should have:
• Minimum 3 years experience working in an accountancy practice
• Experience preparing accounts for limited companies
• Experience with VAT returns and management accounts
• Experience using cloud accounting software such as Xero
• Strong communication and interpersonal skills
Ideally you will also be:
• ACCA / ACA qualified or studying
• Xero certified (preferred but not essential)
• Familiar with practice software such as IRIS
Most importantly, you will enjoy building relationships with clients and helping businesses succeed.
What We Offer
• Competitive salary depending on experience
• Study support available
• Friendly and supportive team environment
• Direct client interaction and responsibility
• Exposure to advisory work
• Clear progression to Client Manager
• Genuine career development within a growing firm
Hybrid working may be considered for the right candidate after successful completion of probation.
