• Advise clients on business structure, tax minimisation, and financial planning.
• Prepare budgets, forecasts, and cash flow projections.
• Work with senior accountants and directors on client engagements and advisory projects.
• Support audits and liaise with external auditors if required.
• Maintain up-to-date knowledge of accounting standards, tax law, and regulatory changes.
• Contribute to continuous improvement of internal processes and use of accounting systems/software
