Forward-Thinking Boutique Firm 4-Day Week Greater Manchester

Looking for an accountancy role where your insight actually matters - and your life outside work does too?

They're now looking for an experienced Accountant / Accounts Senior to join their collaborative team and work closely with entrepreneurial, ambitious clients.

• Statutory year-end accounts

This isn't a sales role - but it is perfect for someone who's commercially minded, enjoys understanding how businesses work, and wants to add value beyond compliance.

Why This Role Is Different

• 4-day week (Tue-Fri, 8am-6pm) - real work-life balance
