About Us Alliance Street Accounting is a global firm providing accounting, bookkeeping, and CFO services to clients across the UK and UAE. Our Goa office acts as our primary delivery hub for UK practice work. We pride ourselves on quality, speed, and strict compliance.
The Role We are looking for an experienced UK Practice Specialist to lead our accounts finalisation and tax delivery team in Goa.
This is a hands-on leadership position. You will act as the ‘technical gatekeeper,‘ taking ownership of complex files, finalizing statutory accounts, and overseeing tax filings before they reach the partners for sign-off.

• Compliance Delivery: Oversee and review UK Corporation Tax (CT600) and UK VAT returns (including MTD and reconciliations). You will also manage HMRC escalations and queries.
• Team Leadership: Lead, coach, and allocate work to our Goa-based accountants. You will enforce ‘first-time-right‘ standards and train the team to reduce rework.
• Client Management: Serve as the escalation point for technical queries. You will manage client expectations regarding records and timelines, communicating clearly with UK stakeholders.
• Process Improvement: Drive the efficient use of cloud tools (Xero, QuickBooks, Dext) and refine internal checklists to improve team speed and consistency.
Must Have
• Qualified: You are ACCA, ACA (ICAEW), or CPA qualified (active membership preferred).
• Experienced: You have 7+ years of total experience, with at least 3+ years in a Manager or Team Lead role specifically within a UK-focused practice.
• Technical Expert: You have proven experience finalizing accounts under FRS 102/105 and managing UK Corp Tax and VAT controls.
• Tech Savvy: You have strong working knowledge of Xero and/or QuickBooks and data capture tools like Dext/Hubdoc.
• Decisive Leader: You have high standards, can resolve issues quickly, and remain calm under deadline pressure.
• Communicator: You possess excellent English communication skills suitable for UK client interaction.
Why Join Alliance Street?
• Work in a key leadership role with a global outlook.
• Direct interaction with UK clients and partners.
• Opportunity to shape quality standards and lead a growing team.
