Careers with Focus Accountancy
At Focus we are always open to hearing from people who are motivated to work in a small, friendly accountancy practice. Even when we are not looking for any specific roles, we are happy to hear from you if you are qualified or part-qualified, and have good IT and communication skills.
Company Profile and Background
Focus is a small Bristol-based accountancy firm specialising in supporting Contractors, Consultants and Freelancers, helping them save time in bookkeeping and financial management, backed by the peace-of-mind of using experienced qualified accountants. We’ve designed a streamlined accounting support service to meet the needs of independent professionals in a very personal, supportive and efficient way.
Personal
We deliver exceptional customer service. We include an annual review with our clients alongside unlimited phone and email support, where they are in contact with a qualified accountant.
Supportive
Our service includes helping clients to streamline their administration by having the FreeAgent cloud software in the service. We have also developed tools, apps and information sheets specifically to support our target clients. We help with VAT returns, tax returns, year-end accounts, tax planning, forecasting, company secretarial work and much more.
Efficient
We’re constantly looking for ways to save time for our clients. We look for ways to engineer time out of the accounting administration process, through streamlined data entry and automation. The use of FreeAgent enables our clients to save time so that they can spend more time making money and doing what they enjoy. We strive to help them save even more through the accounting and financial advice we can provide. We’re delighted to have very high customer retention rates, and by the client testimonials given and referrals we receive.
Get in touch
As mentioned before, we would be happy to hear from you if you're great with people and have good IT skills. By that, we mean being able to deal with new software, work with social media, have knowledge of digital marketing, experience with accountancy software and occasionally deal with a bust printer or other such technicalities.
