Abacus Jack Accountancy - Modern Accountants for ambitious businesses in the North East.

We are hiring!

Year End Accountant

Join Abacus Jack Accountancy and help reshape what modern accountancy looks like.

We're looking for a motivated Accountant to prepare high-quality accounts for micro and small businesses while delivering outstanding client service. You'll play an important role in supporting our clients' growth and helping us continue to build a modern, forward-thinking accountancy practice.

This role is perfect for someone who enjoys working directly with clients, thrives on independence, and has no desire to manage a team. We're looking for someone who is intellectually curious, enjoys analysing financial information to identify risks and opportunities, and is always looking for better ways of working. You'll be comfortable working in a fast-paced, collaborative environment where technology and innovation are part of everyday life.

What you'll do

  • Prepare Limited Company Accounts (FRS 105 & FRS 102 (1A))

  • Prepare Corporation Tax Returns (CT600)

  • Prepare Partnership Accounts

  • Prepare Sole Trader Accounts

  • Complete Self Assessment Tax Returns

  • File Confirmation Statements

  • Support clients with profit extraction and tax planning

This isn't your typical accountancy practice

We do things differently.

Be yourself. Dress casually. Work flexibly. We embrace technology, trust our people to use their judgement, and focus on giving clients practical, tailored advice. We've built strong systems that support great work, not unnecessary bureaucracy.

No pointless rules. No timesheets. No micromanagement.

Essential

  • AAT Level 4, ACA or ACCA qualified

  • At least 4 years' practice experience

  • Proven ability to work independently

  • Strong organisational skills with the ability to manage your own workload and priorities

  • Confident communicating directly with clients

This role probably isn't for you if...

  • You prefer your work to be closely managed

  • You want to manage a team

  • You're not comfortable speaking with clients

  • You're looking for a part-time role
