Senior Accountant

Senior Accountant

Coventry

£44,000 – £60,000 (DOE)

I’m currently partnering with a highly regarded, forward-thinking accountancy and advisory firm based in Coventry to recruit a Senior Accountant to join their growing team.

This is not your traditional practice environment. The team operate from modern, well-equipped offices and have built a reputation for delivering high-quality work while genuinely investing in their people. Professional development, collaboration, and creating a supportive working environment are clearly at the core of how they operate.

The Opportunity

Many “Senior Accountant” roles simply mean a heavier workload and more pressure on production.

This role is different.

You will still bring strong technical expertise, but your primary focus will be on review, quality, and development rather than purely production. You’ll take ownership of final output—ensuring work is technically accurate, consistent, and ready for sign-off—while playing a key role in upskilling those around you.

You’ll work across a varied portfolio, including

Statutory accounts

Management accounts

Corporation tax, personal tax, and partnership returns

Complex group structures and consolidations

Alongside delivery, you’ll mentor junior team members in a practical, hands-on way—helping them understand not just what to do, but why.

Key Responsibilities

Review and oversee preparation of statutory and management accounts

Review personal, corporate, and partnership tax returns

Prepare and review dividend and interest planning calculations

Maintain strong, professional client relationships

Identify opportunities to add value across the client base

Mentor and support junior team members day-to-day

Work with the Team Manager to guide team development

Resolve internal and client queries accurately and efficiently

Who This Role Suits

You’re ACA or ACCA qualified with a strong background in practice, and you’re ready for a shift in focus.

Rather than spending all your time in production, you want to

Take ownership of final review and quality control

Be the trusted “last set of eyes” before work leaves the firm

Play a meaningful role in developing others

You’re confident communicating with both clients and colleagues, and comfortable giving clear, constructive feedback—even when it’s challenging.

Your review truly matters—when work leaves with your sign-off, it reflects the firm’s standards and reputation. In return, you’re given trust, autonomy, and the opportunity to make a real impact.

If you’re looking for a role where

Standards are high

Work is varied and technically interesting

The team actively supports and develops each other

—this is well worth exploring.

Benefits

Competitive salary (£44k–£60k DOE)

Company car or car allowance (post-qualification period)

Profit share scheme

Private medical insurance

Free high-quality lunches (4 days per week)

30 days holiday (including bank holidays)

Flexible working hours

Reward lunches and team events

Ongoing professional development opportunities

Supportive and collaborative team culture
