Assistant Client Manager / Accountant
Cheltenham
– Up to £40,000 + Amazing Perks + Real Career Growth
Yes, we’re accountants — and proud of it! But what we do goes way beyond the
numbers. We’re in the business of helping people improve their lives.
We help business owners grow their businesses, pay less tax (legally!), and create
the freedom they dreamed of when they first started out.
If that excites you — and you love the idea of being part of a modern, people-focused,
values-driven firm — keep reading.
The Role
As an Assistant Client Manager / Accountant, you’ll manage your own portfolio of
friendly, ambitious business owners — but you won’t be doing it alone. You’ll work
within one of our dedicated client teams, supporting a Senior Client Manager who will
guide, mentor, and train you as you grow in confidence and skill.
You’ll have plenty of independence and autonomy day-to-day — handling accounts,
building relationships, and delivering excellent service — but always with the backing of
an experienced manager and a supportive bookkeeping/admin team.
Because this portfolio is with slightly smaller clients and more focused, you’ll have the
time and space to build strong relationships with each client and deliver a ‘wow’
customer experience.
You’ll help clients stay on top of their accounts, make smart financial decisions, and feel
genuinely cared for — not just “processed.”
Over time, as your confidence grows, you’ll have the chance to get more involved in
value-driven services like Profit First implementation, cash flow planning, and
business improvement support.
This is the perfect role if you want structure and support, but also freedom to learn,
grow, and shape your career your way.
Unique Ability
We strongly believe people do their best work when they’re doing the things they love
and are naturally great at. We call this Unique Ability.
While this role is clearly defined today, we don’t believe in boxing people in. If this
position excites you and feels like the perfect next step, we’ll work with you over time to
evolve your role so it aligns with your strengths, passions, and purpose.
We want you to build a career you love — not just a job you do.
Salary & Benefits
- Up to £40,000 (depending on experience)
- Super-flexible working – local or remote, we focus on results, not where you sit
- Generous holiday allowance
- Pension
- Regular team meals out every 2 months
- Treat box in the office
- Continuous training and development
- Real opportunities for progression in a growing, forward-thinking firm
Qualifications
Qualified / Part-Qualified (QBE considered) – what matters most is your experience,
your mindset, and your desire to grow.
What We’re Looking For
You’re someone who loves accounting — but you’re also great with people. You know
how to explain things clearly, build trust, and make a difference.
You’ll thrive here if you:
Enjoy helping people improve their businesses and lives
Take pride in delivering a ‘wow’ service that clients rave about
Are hungry to grow, learn, and stay ahead (especially with AI shaking up the
industry)
Value freedom and flexibility, but understand that accountability comes with it
Want to be part of a team that’s positive, open, and passionate about what we do
Our Core Values
- Kaizen (Continuous Improvement)
You’ve got a growth mindset and a love for learning. You’re always looking for ways to
get better — for yourself, your clients, and the business.
- Above the Line Thinking
You take ownership, accountability, and responsibility. You don’t get stuck in
blame, excuses, or denial — you find solutions and move forward.
- No Eeyores!
Attitude is everything. We bring energy, positivity, and a solutions-focused mindset —
even on the tough days.
Why You’ll Love Working Here
We’re a results-focused organisation that gives you independence, trust, and
flexibility — alongside brilliant training and support.
We believe in creating a workplace that helps you do your best work, grow your career,
and enjoy the journey.
You’ll get the autonomy to manage your own work, the support of a strong team, and
the opportunity to shape your future in a thriving, modern accounting firm.
If you’re looking for more than just another job — if you want a career with meaning,
growth, and freedom — we’d love to hear from you.
