Cloud Bookkeeper - Practice

Cloud Bookkeeper / Cloud Assistant Newcastle-under-Lyme or Northwest Hybrid Working Available £30,000 - £38,000 DOE + Benefits Let’s be honest… genuinely good bookkeeping opportunities within practice are becoming harder to find. A lot of people we speak to feel stuck doing repetitive processing work, firefighting deadlines, or sitting in firms where they’re treated as “back office support” rather than a valued part of the client relationship. This opportunity feels very different. We are currently representing one of the most impressive independent practices we work with — a firm that continues to grow whilst still maintaining the supportive, people-first culture that is often lost as firms expand. Despite now employing over 100 staff, the practice remains fiercely independent and owner-managed, with a genuine focus on long-term careers, internal progression and developing people properly. That commitment is already showing results. The firm has recently climbed significantly within the industry rankings, continues to invest heavily into modern cloud technology and has built a culture centred around collaboration, support and flexibility rather than micromanagement and unrealistic pressure. This is not an old-school bookkeeping role. The team works closely with clients to improve processes, embrace cloud software and become trusted day-to-day advisors to businesses. You will be joining a modern, collaborative environment where people are encouraged to contribute ideas, build relationships and genuinely grow with the business long term. The Role: • Managing bookkeeping for a varied portfolio of clients • Supporting businesses with cloud-based systems and processes • VAT returns, reconciliations and day-to-day bookkeeping • Working with Xero and QuickBooks • Helping clients improve efficiencies and workflows • Working closely with the wider accounts team Why this firm stands out: * Independent, people-first practice * Flexible & hybrid working * Modern cloud-focused environment * Genuine work/life balance * Long-term progression opportunities * Strong investment into staff development * Friendly, collaborative culture * A firm where you are genuinely valued The ideal person will already have experience within UK accountancy practice and enjoy building relationships with clients rather than simply processing numbers all day.
