You’ll develop the technical skills to start, or progress, your career in accountancy and this will allow you to continue with your studies onto Level 4.
To pass this level you will need to study the following four units:
Financial Accounting; Preparing Financial Statements (FAPS).
Management Accounting Techniques (MATS).
Tax Processes for Business (TPFB).
Business Awareness (BUAW).
Training Outcome:
A talented and committed employee can expect to receive on-the-job training and an opportunity to study for professional qualifications such as membership of the Association of Accounting Technicians (AAT), Association of Taxation Technicians (ATT), the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales (ICAEW) and the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants (ACCA).
As such, there will be opportunities to progress to roles including Senior Accountant and Client Manager.
Employer Description:Being part of the national TaxAssist Accountants network brings many advantages including brand recognition and technical support to name but two. However, most importantly, the network structure allows the practice to retain its independence as a business. The practice is wholly owned and managed by the two director/shareholders, which means we have a friendly small-practice culture. We view all staff as stakeholders in the practice, and have regular full team meetings to review and consider the progress of the practice and how we might develop it. With five colleagues in total, including the two directors, we are too small for any kind of office politics or factionalism. Both directors have an open door policy for staff members wanting to raise issues or concerns, so any difficulties are dealt with as quickly and diplomatically as possible. Our view is that the workplace should be efficient, productive and happy.Working Hours :Monday to Friday, shifts to be confirmed.Skills: Communication skills,IT skills,Organisation skills,Attention to detail,Customer care skills,Problem solving skills,Presentation skills,Administrative skills,Number skills,Analytical skills,Logical,Team working,Creative,Initiative....Read more...
