Join IRIS Software Group and help shape the future of cloud accounting.

As an Implementation Consultant within the IRIS Accountancy Professional Services Team, you’ll play a key role in supporting our customers through their onboarding and migration journeys. You’ll work closely with accountancy practices and finance professionals to ensure a smooth and successful transition to our market-leading software solutions.

This is a hands-on, customer-facing role where you’ll combine your accounting knowledge with technical understanding to guide clients through implementations, migrations, and training — ensuring they’re set up for long-term success with IRIS.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Supporting the transition of IRIS desktop accountancy products to our new cloud-based solutions.
• Managing and delivering customer implementations and migrations from initial scoping through to completion.
• Preparing and validating customer data for successful transitions.
• Providing training, guidance, and best-practice advice to customers adopting our software.
• Acting as a trusted partner and advocate for customers throughout their onboarding journey.
• Collaborating with the IRIS Professional Services, Product, and Customer Service teams to ensure a seamless experience.
• Maintaining a high standard of accountancy and payroll knowledge to support both customers and colleagues.

What We’re Looking For

• Part-qualified or fully qualified accountants (ACA, ACCA, AAT) or equivalent accountancy experience.
• Strong understanding of accountancy practice workflows and financial systems.
• Confident communicator with customer-facing experience – you’re comfortable running meetings, training sessions, or demonstrations.
• A problem-solver with great attention to detail and the ability to translate complex processes into practical solutions.
• Willingness to travel occasionally for on-site client work or internal meetings.
• Enthusiastic about technology and the opportunity to help customers modernise and improve how they work.
