JOB OVERVIEW
We have a fantastic new job opportunity for an Accounts Senior / Accountant with proven experience in an accountancy practice, who is CA / ACCA / AAT qualified OR QBE and has strong technical ability in accounts prep and tax.
As the Accounts Senior / Accountant you will have solid practice experience, will understand the pace of compliance work, value accuracy, and support clients through financial deadlines.

We believe the best work happens in person, but we support flexible working where it makes sense. Many of our senior team blend in-office days with remote time to stay connected while maintaining focus.

About Us
At Benson Wood & Co, we’re redefining what it means to be an accountancy firm. We work with ambitious, values-led business owners who want more than year-end compliance - they want clarity, confidence, and a financial partner who speaks their language.
With nearly 90 years behind us, we’re deeply rooted in the Scottish business community, but we’re not stuck in the past. We believe in modern tools, plain-English advice, and a team culture built on clarity and mutual respect.
DUTIES
Your duties as Accounts Senior / Accountant will include:
• Preparing year-end accounts for limited companies, partnerships, and sole traders
• Completing corporation and personal tax returns
• Supporting VAT and bookkeeping where needed
• Managing your own client portfolio and acting as a primary contact
• Collaborating with the Client Manager to meet deadlines and team goals
• Mentoring and reviewing junior team members while contributing to a collaborative culture
• Assisting with forecasting, budgeting, and management reporting when relevant
• Using cloud tools like Xero & Dext to streamline delivery and keep things paper-free
CANDIDATE REQUIREMENTS
You are confident in your technical skills, reliable under pressure, and take pride in delivering clear, accurate work. You’ve worked in a practice environment and want to keep growing.
Must-haves:
• Experience in an accountancy practice (3 years+)
• CA, ACCA or AAT qualified (or QBE with proven experience)
• Strong technical ability in accounts prep and tax
• Confidence to manage your own time and take ownership of work
• Experience with cloud tools like Xero & Dext
• Alignment to our values
Nice-to-haves:
• Experience reviewing junior colleagues’ work
• Interest in advisory services like forecasting or planning
What You’ll Get:
• A people-first culture built on clarity, trust, and teamwork
• A role that blends structure with autonomy and flexibility
• Personalised development support - CPD, technical training, and leadership opportunities
• A collaborative, ego-free team that supports each other’s success
• A forward-looking firm that uses tools like Xero, Dext, and Karbon and exploring emerging tech like AI to make your role more strategic (not to replace you, but to support your growth)
