What Makes Us Different:
Established 130 years ago, Wilson Wright is now part of BKL, an accounting, tax, and business advisory firm based in London.

As a longstanding member of DFK International, a worldwide association of accounting firms, we can support our clients globally when the need arises.

Our clients range in size from small sole traders to multinational groups. We believe they all have one thing in common: they want cutting-edge technical excellence with a hands-on, professional, and personal service that they can rely on to add value and deliver results.

Our holistic approach to service delivery means that our clients always have a central point of contact with a person who understands their issues. It also means our people understand a client's needs from every angle.

We aim to inspire and support each other to be at our best, so we can make a lasting difference to our clients, the community, and our firm.

Inclusion, diversity, and talent development are fundamental aspects of who we are, and we welcome applications from candidates who share and champion these values. You will play an integral part in helping to make this a great place to work.

What We Value:

• Think Big:
  We are always challenging ourselves to think differently and reimagine what's possible. This happens when we are open to new ideas: brave in how we suggest them, curious about exploring them, and enthusiastic in how we make them work.
• In It Together:
  BKL is a business for everyone. We work together and care about each other so that we can all achieve our best. By building a more inclusive culture, we enable innovation and growth. Our choices, decisions, and actions have a positive impact on our people, our society, and the environment, helping to create a sustainable business.
• Take Pride:
  We work with conviction, seeking to be the best version of ourselves in everything we do. This belief is rooted in the confidence we have in ourselves, our team, our work, and our business. We understand and believe that we can all achieve remarkable things.
• Do the Right Thing:
  We value fairness, honesty, and integrity above all else. We speak openly and fairly with each other to build relationships based on trust and respect. We're accountable for our actions and do what we say we'll do, even if it's not easy.
• Enjoy It:
  We bring our whole selves to work every day - free to express our beliefs and share our unique perspectives in all that we do. We enjoy our time at work and know it's also important to enjoy our time at home. We laugh, have fun, and make this part of what we're known for.
