VCS Accountancy

VCS Accountancy offers a unique opportunity to work at a forward-thinking, established chartered accountancy and tax firm, situated in the middle of the countryside.

People are at the centre of what we do and our employees' happiness comes first. We promote a healthy work-life balance, as an inspired and productive workforce is the basis of our friendly, efficient and proactive service to all our clients.

We have many wellbeing initiatives and development opportunities for our staff as well as a strong commitment to corporate social responsibility, focusing on people and the planet. VCS have even pledged to become a “green” practice in a bid for complete self-sustainability. This has always been an important issue for the firm as we wish to play our part in creating a better future.

We were recently awarded a place within the Small Organisation category for THE SUNDAY TIMES Best Places to Work 2024!
