It's a big job: we file anywhere between 40 and 60 returns
each and every month.
Our VAT Manager will do two things to make sure we are
filing the returns we need to file. First of all they manage our VAT process
using a team of people based both here in the office and remotely, too. They
will also complete some of our more complex (and therefore interesting) VAT
returns themselves.
We use as much technology as we possibly can to make the VAT
return process as smooth as possible for both us and our clients. As such our
VAT Manager will not only have two years experience 'in VAT' they will also be
able to use a variety of online bookkeeping systems.
Our preferred package is QuickBooks but our clients (and we
have portals for) a variety of software such as Xero, FreeAgent and even
Coconut.
We are looking for a well organised and outgoing VAT Manager
who will be an important and long-term member of our team.
I'll not deny, it's a busy role... but surely that's a good
thing!
In return we offer an open, focused and fun place to work.
The office is open plan and the environment is supportive... if there's a
question to be asked, it gets asked!
All of us are focused on our clients - they are central to
everything we do. We actively encourage our clients to pop in and see us and
they do; sometimes to ask questions or bring us docs but often with the
biscuits!
Although we're busy we do stop for the occasional chat and
Richard has been known to pop to Costa once in a while. We don't live in each
other's pockets but we do enjoy the occasional night out together.
The role is office based but there is the opportunity to
work from home every so often.
Finally, we actively encourage development and will support
anybody who wishes to learn, take exams and generally improve their knowledge
of accounts.
