About the role
- Tailored client support: You don’t work "for" clients, you work "with" them.
- Modern, optimized accounting: No more tedious manual data entry. Thanks to our AI tools (Yooz, Pennylane), you can focus on what matters.
- A key role on the team: You will be responsible for maintaining clients' accounts (verifying accounting entries, and preparing VAT, corporate tax (IS) and personal income tax (IR) filings).
- Opportunity to take initiative: Here, even an accounting assistant can challenge a process, suggest improvements and see their ideas implemented.
- Rapid skills development: You will be trained in account review and tax return packages (liasses fiscales).
Requirements
- You hold a Bac+2/3 (equivalent to 2–3 years of higher education).
- You have at least 2 years' experience in an accounting firm (including apprenticeships and internships).
- You are proficient in bookkeeping, common tax filings (VAT, corporate tax, personal income tax) and comfortable with digital tools.
- Account review does not intimidate you; if you are not yet fully proficient, you are ready to develop this skill.
- Curious, proactive and detail-oriented, you enjoy working in a team and supporting clients with a pedagogical approach.
- You are eager to learn, progress and share your knowledge, including by training an apprentice.
Benefits
- Work-life balance: flexible hours and an organization designed to avoid prolonged high-intensity periods.
- Fast career progression: personalized development path, mentoring and regular training.
- A stepping stone to expertise: possibility to complete your DEC internship (Diplôme d'Expertise Comptable) within the firm.
- Human-scale firm with the backing of a national network: the proximity and friendliness of a small office combined with the resources and best practices of a nationwide network.
- Stimulating environment: a close-knit team in a human-sized firm with annual events.
- Competitive package: fixed salary + meal vouchers + health insurance covered at 99%.
- Varied, rewarding assignments: not assembly-line work but genuine skills development.
- Exclusive benefits and boosted purchasing power: access to an outsourced employee benefits service (CSE) with discounts on travel, restaurants, cultural activities and shopping.
