No ceilings at Abbeygate
AAT Level 4 Bookkeeper
This is our most-wanted role right now. If you are AAT Level 4 qualified (or close) and you want to do bookkeeping properly, with genuine progression and no ceilings, we would love to talk.
Accountant
If you have a passion for helping clients and to go the extra mile, then that’s the start. It’s Accounts and Tax but so much more. It is forecasting, adding value and being proactive. If you have experience with VAT, CIS, year end accounts, corporation tax and personal tax returns, and you are tired of your work disappearing into a review queue, come and talk to us. No timesheets, no ceiling, and a clear route up to Senior Accountant.
Senior Accountant
This is the step from doing the work to owning the relationship. You will have your own clients, prep and run their 9-month reviews, build the forecasts they make decisions on and be in the room when we sign the next ones. If you are qualified, already enjoy the client side and want a clear run at running your own pod, let’s talk.
Dealership Accountant (Motortrade Pod)
Motor trade experience is essential for this one. If you have worked in Kerridge/Keyloop, Pinewood, Drive or Tekion and you know composites, vehicle stock recs, bonus recs and manufacturer returns, this is a rare one. A pod built around the sector, clients who will actually listen to you, and no ceiling on where you go n
Why Abbeygate
The pod model
Senior Accountant
The roles
Junior
If you are bright, organised and want a career rather than just a job, we will teach you the rest. You will pick up something new most days, and the next step is already mapped out for you. If you are confident and have a real thirst to do a great job…get in touch.
Bookkeeper
If you are AAT Level 4 qualified (or close) and you want to do bookkeeping properly, with genuine progression and no ceilings, we would love to talk. No two clients are the same, so you will keep learning and challenging yourself.
Accountant
If you are qualified or qualifying and tired of being a small cog in a big machine, overlooked or not able to deliver the personal service you are eager to…this is where your technical work actually gets seen. Different clients, different problems, real responsibility. It’s busy, it’s buzzing, there are no timesheets so you are encouraged to add value to client.
Senior Accountant
You will be supporting the client manager but own your own clients, run 9-month reviews (your introduction to advisory), build the forecasts they make decisions on, and help sign the next ones. Technical depth one day, boardroom the next, and you will learn more in a year here than most do in three. It is also the last stop before running a pod of your own.
Client Manager
If you want to lead a team and be the person clients call first, this is the seat. You will run a pod (think of it as your onw business within our business), own the relationships, and set the standard. Every client brings a different problem, so the job never gets stale, and the path from here goes all the way to Outsourced FD….and we mean that.
Outsourced FD
The top of the pod path, and proof that the ladder here is real. If you have the technical grounding and the commercial instinct to sit across the table from a business owner and tell them what they should be doing, we should be talking. You will still be learning every day!
Dealership Accountant (Motortrade Pod)
If you have worked with Kerridge/Keyloop, Pinewood, Drive or Tekion and you understand composites, funding, vehicle stock recs, bonus recs and manufacturer statements, this is a rare one. A pod built just around the automotive sector.
