Accountant jobs in Manchester

50 current accountant openings in Manchester, aggregated from public boards and linking straight to the employer's own posting. 33 employers are hiring across this list right now.

Working as a accountant in Manchester

The strongest UK market outside London, with real depth in digital, media and a growing engineering scene. Salaries run roughly 15-25% below London while housing runs far below it, which is why the net position often favours Manchester.

Most of the hiring in this list clusters around Spinningfields, Ancoats and MediaCity. Location on a posting is not always literal — check whether a role is genuinely on site, and whether "remote" means remote within the country or remote from anywhere, because the two are priced differently.

Accountant pay and hiring, asked properly

What salary can an accountant expect?

In India, roughly 4–9 LPA for a semi-qualified accountant and 8–20 LPA for a qualified CA in industry, with Big Four and financial services above that. The US band is about $55,000–$85,000 for staff level, the UK £28,000–£50,000. Qualification status moves this number more than years do.

Do I need to be fully qualified to get hired?

No. Article-ship, part-qualified and semi-qualified roles exist precisely so experience builds alongside the exams, and delaying applications until you are fully qualified costs years of seniority for no gain. Say clearly which stage you are at and which papers remain.

Which software should I know?

Tally and one ERP for the Indian market, QuickBooks or Xero for smaller Western employers, and SAP or Oracle for large ones. Excel matters more than any of them, and 'proficient in Excel' means nothing without lookups, pivots and a model you can walk somebody through.
