Trainee Accounts Assistant – Dundee/Forfar Office
Who are we?
We are an independent accountancy practice with long established East of Scotland connections. EQ comprises 15 partners and over 100 staff with offices in Cupar, Dundee, Forfar and Glenrothes. Modern and energetic, we are one of the 15 largest accountancy and business advisory practices in Scotland and a leader in our field.
In October 2017, we were awarded “Most Innovative Large Firm” at the national 2020 Annual Innovation Awards having previously won “Managing Partner of the Year” in 2015. In addition, we are past finalists in the categories of “Best Medium Firm” and “Training Manager of the Year” at the Scottish Accountancy Awards. We are an ambitious practice and are committed to delivering an all round excellent service to our varied portfolio of clients. We are also part of the Kreston International network, operating in over 100 countries, which allows us to provide national and international services to our clients
What is the job?
We have a strong training ethos and are able to provide our people with a comprehensive training experience. You will be an ambitious person with the ability to study through University but considering the alternative opportunity of training within a work environment (with appropriate formal further studies being considered over time).
There are various forms of such formal studies available that, following careful review after a period of time, we may support in the future. These formal studies, over time, can take the candidate beyond a degree level qualification (whilst obtaining other levels of qualification in the interim). You will have (or be expecting) good grades at Higher level (or equivalent), including Maths and English. Good organisational and communication skills would greatly assist your application.
During your initial stages of training you will be assisting with compliance work (i.e. accounts and tax return completion) but, as your experience grows, invariably your exposure to different types of work and clients will increase as will your level of responsibility. To equip you to deal with this appropriate training and supervision will be provided.
Start date (to be mutually agreed)
