This position involves a number of different aspects including:
Preparing financial statements for limited companies, partnerships and sole traders
Preparing tax computations
Providing bookkeeping services
Preparation of VAT returns
Filing Companies House and H M Revenue & Customs documents on the client's behalf
Assignments will be undertaken both in the office and at the client's premises. Trainees will have support and on-the-job training from managers and other senior staff.
During your training, you will be expected to develop an understanding of the practical issues involved in delivering a high quality service to clients.
Both practical and theoretical training will be undertaken, with an aim to become a member of the Association of Accounting Technicians (AAT).Training:You will undertake the “Assistant Accountant” Apprenticeship (an Advanced Apprenticeship in Accounting), with full support from Accountancy Learning as part of their Flexible Apprenticeship Programme.
Assessment will be by an “End Point Assessment” and will be graded “Pass” or “Distinction”.
This will include two elements:
A Professional Discussion:
This will include a series of questions allowing you to display the knowledge and experience you have obtained over your apprenticeship. You will build a Portfolio of reflections and product evidence that will be used for discussion points in the PD.
A Synoptic Exam:

As you are working towards a professional qualification, it is also expected that you will continue your studies outside of normal office hours.
As you learn more in both the office and in your studies your responsibilities, and the variety of tasks you undertake, are expected to increase.
Those with previous relevant qualifications and experience may be considered for a Higher Apprenticeship undertaking the Professional Accountant Standard.Training Outcome:
