Business accounting jobs in CardiffCreate job alerts

Business Services Senior Manager \n Cardiff £75,000-£90,000 \n There are plenty of Senior Manager jobs where the role essentially means reviewing accounts, monitoring recoveries and sitting in internal meetings. \n This isn't one of them. \n This is a client-facing position within a highly successful independent accountancy firm where business owners expect their adviser to understand what is happening in their company and help them work through it. \n The portfolio ranges from start-ups through to established businesses approaching £15m turnover. The client base is deliberately sector agnostic, so you could be discussing growth plans with one owner in the morning and helping another work through a technical accounting issue later that afternoon. \n The Business Services Senior Manager will effectively become number two to a very experienced director whose portfolio has reached capacity, creating genuine room for responsibility and progression. \n The role \n\n • Managing a varied portfolio of owner-managed businesses\n, • Holding regular face-to-face meetings with clients\n, • Reviewing statutory accounts and more complex accounting work\n, • Advising clients when unusual technical or commercial issues arise\n, • Supporting business owners with reporting, structures and financial decision-making\n, • Managing workflow across the team and developing more junior colleagues\n, • Identifying opportunities to broaden relationships and introduce additional services\n\n The firm is particularly interested in technically capable people who can think beyond standard accounts production. When a client arrives with an unfamiliar accounting problem, the expectation is that the Business Services Senior Manager can investigate it, understand the implications and explain the solution clearly. \n You will therefore need strong technical grounding from an accountancy background alongside the confidence to advise clients directly. \n Why it's worth considering \n This is one of the highest-performing independent firms around Cardiff, with strong profitability and significant new investment supporting its next stage of expansion. \n Staff retention is unusually good, with numerous people having built careers of ten years or more within the business. The culture is high-performing but supportive, with people rewarded for taking ownership and developing strong client relationships. \n There is also a clear route towards Director and potentially beyond within the wider accountancy team. \n Package \n\n • £75,000-£90,000\n, • Strong progression opportunity\n, • Highly profitable, growing firm\n, • Established portfolio rather than a turnaround situation\n, • Direct exposure to experienced directors\n, • Investment in people and the wider business\n, • Relationship-led working environment\n\n For a Business Services Senior Manager who enjoys being visible to clients rather than permanently attached to a spreadsheet, this is a particularly strong Cardiff opportunity.

OMB Director \n Cardiff \n £90,000-£110,000 \n A successful High Growth firm is looking for an OMB Director capable of taking genuine ownership of a substantial owner-managed business portfolio while helping shape the next stage of its growth. \n The firm is already one of the strongest performers in its region, highly profitable and continuing to invest heavily in people. Growth here is being driven by demand from an established OMB client base and the need to create additional senior capacity. \n As OMB Director, you would work closely with an Audit and Accounts Director who is currently operating at capacity. \n The portfolio includes entrepreneurial start-ups, growing owner-managed companies and established OMB clients with turnover of up to around £15m. \n Where you'll add value \n\n • Acting as a senior adviser to owner-managers and their leadership teams\n, • Taking responsibility for a significant OMB portfolio\n, • Leading complex accounts and business advisory assignments for owner-managed clients\n, • Handling technical accounting questions that fall outside routine compliance\n, • Meeting clients regularly and building strong personal relationships with business owners\n, • Helping identify new OMB work from existing and prospective clients\n, • Coaching managers and supporting succession across the OMB team\n, • Working closely with the wider leadership group on OMB growth strategy\n\n This is very much a relationship-led OMB environment. Clients in Cardiff are accustomed to sitting down with their advisers and discussing problems properly rather than sending requests into a faceless central inbox. \n The right OMB Director will therefore combine strong technical capability with the judgement and communication skills needed to advise an owner when the answer isn't immediately obvious. \n Experience from an independent, regional or mid-tier accountancy firm, ideally with a genuine focus on owner-managed businesses, is likely to translate particularly well. \n The opportunity \n There is significant headroom here. \n The firm has an established history of internal progression, numerous long-serving employees and a leadership team actively developing its next generation of directors. \n A successful OMB Director would have a realistic opportunity to progress further as the OMB offering expands across Cardiff and the wider region. \n Package \n\n • £90,000-£110,000\n, • Senior OMB position within a highly profitable firm\n, • Strong long-term progression\n, • Exposure to entrepreneurial and growing owner-managed businesses\n, • Significant investment behind future OMB expansion\n, • Collaborative, family-owned culture\n, • Regular face-to-face client interaction\n\n This is a strong opportunity for someone who wants greater influence over an OMB portfolio while remaining close to clients and the commercial side of accountancy.

A clearer route into management? Better exposure to senior people? Enough flexibility to still have a life outside work? \n A successful independent firm is looking for a Senior Accountant - Accountancy Practice as part of a wider investment into its future leadership team. \n This is an established, profitable business rather than a start-up dressed in expensive language about "growth". It already has strong clients, experienced people and excellent staff retention.

A genuinely exciting opportunity to join an ambitious, project-led SME at an important stage of its development. \n This is not a high-level FD role where the finance function is already built. The successful candidate will be expected to roll their sleeves up and build much of the finance infrastructure from scratch. \n Initially, that means personally taking ownership of monthly management accounts, establishing a robust month-end process and improving P&L, balance sheet and cash-flow reporting. You will also introduce better cash and working-capital forecasting, budgeting, project accounting, WIP and margin reporting, alongside appropriate financial controls. \n We are looking for someone who is commercial but very hands-on - an experienced FD or Head of Finance, or potentially a strong Financial Controller ready to make their first FD move. The key is having actually built or materially improved a finance function, rather than simply inherited one. \n It is a rare chance to come into an entrepreneurial business, create the finance function properly and ultimately become a genuine partner to the MD and Board. \n Relevant backgrounds could include: project-led manufacturing, engineering, construction, fit-out, events or production. \n

This is not a Director title bolted onto what is essentially still a Senior Manager job. The firm needs somebody capable of operating as a genuine senior adviser, taking pressure away from an established leadership team and helping build the next stage of the business. The Accountancy Director will join a highly profitable, family-owned firm with an established client base, strong staff retention and significant investment behind its growth plans. There is already plenty working well. The opportunity is to build on it. Cardiff £90,000-£110,000 This is not a Director title bolted onto what is essentially still a Senior Manager job. The firm needs somebody capable of operating as a genuine senior adviser, taking pressure away from an established leadership team and helping build the next stage of the business. The Accountancy Director will join a highly profitable, family-owned firm with an established client base, strong staff retention and significant investment behind its growth plans.

You will take ownership of significant client relationships across entrepreneurial start-ups, growing businesses and established owner-managed companies. That includes: • Managing and developing a substantial portfolio, • Leading important face-to-face client relationships, • Providing senior technical input on more complex accounting matters, • Supporting business owners with commercially practical advice, • Leading and developing managers within the team, • Maintaining quality and consistency across client deliveryWorking directly with the existing directors on growth plans, • Developing new business and referral relationships, • Converting opportunities into sustainable fee income, • Helping develop future managers and directors internally The Accountancy Director needs to combine three things that don't always arrive in the same person: technical credibility, strong relationships and commercial instinct. You are likely to be ACA or ACCA qualified and currently operating at Senior Manager, Associate Director or Director level within a UK practice firm. Experience generating work would be particularly valuable. You don't need to arrive dragging an enormous client book behind you, but you should understand how senior advisers build relationships, create opportunities and turn those into fees. The business has built an unusually loyal team and a number of people have remained for ten years or more. At the same time, it isn't standing still. New investment is creating capacity for further growth, and the Director will have considerably more influence over that direction than they would typically get inside a large national structure. The firm deliberately maintains an in-person model because client relationships are one of its main differentiators. Senior people are visible, accessible and expected to know their clients properly. • £90,000-£110,000, • Significant autonomy, • Established and profitable client base, • Opportunity to influence future growth, • Direct involvement with the leadership team, • Strong internal progression culture, • Scope to develop towards partnership, • High-quality client-facing work For a senior practice professional who wants to become more commercially influential without losing the client work they actually enjoy, this Cardiff opportunity offers a strong platform. #J-18808-Ljbffr

£90,000-£110,000 A successful independent firm is looking for a senior adviser capable of taking genuine ownership of a substantial business services portfolio while helping shape the next stage of its growth.
