Executive & Senior Accounting Support Recruitment
Who this is for:

> Employers who are prepared to search for quality candidates
In addition to administrative recruitment, Hall Recruitment supports organisations with the appointment of senior accounting and accounting support professionals where experience, discretion and technical competence are critical.
Our work at this level is accounting-led, rather than broad finance-focused, supporting both industry and practice-based environments where strong technical grounding and regulatory awareness are required.
Executive and senior assignments are managed on a retained or exclusive basis, ensuring a targeted and confidential recruitment process.
Senior Accounting Roles We Support
While our core specialism remains administrative and operational accounting support, we also assist with the recruitment of senior and qualified accounting professionals where required, including:
- Senior Accounting Technicians
- Practice Accountants
- Qualified Accountants (industry or practice)
- Accounting Managers with operational oversight
These appointments are typically aligned to defined reporting structures and regulatory requirements rather than broad commercial finance remits.
Professional Qualifications & Regulatory Context
Many senior accounting roles reference recognised professional qualifications. Where relevant, we recruit professionals with backgrounds aligned to bodies such as:
- Chartered Accountants Ireland (ACA / CA)
- ACCA (Association of Chartered Certified Accountants)
- CPA Ireland
- Accounting Technicians Ireland (ATI)
Qualification requirements are assessed in context, based on role scope, environment and compliance obligations.
