Accounting Excellence Awards

Bookkeeper of the Year Award

The records every good decision depends on.

About this category

This award recognises a bookkeeper whose accuracy, reliability and support keep businesses running smoothly. Judges look for the quality of the work, the systems the entrant has improved and the difference they make to their clients.

Eligibility

Open to employed and self employed bookkeepers.

Judging criteria

  • Accuracy
  • Reliability
  • Systems improved
  • Client support
  • Professional development

Qualitative criteria

Attention to detail and calm support for busy business owners.

Metrics

  • Clients supported
  • Time saved
  • Errors avoided
  • Deadlines met and client feedback

Additional criteria

Entries should include a concise case study, supporting figures and, where possible, client or colleague evidence. Client names and commercially sensitive numbers may be anonymised or given as percentages and ranges, and nothing in an entry is ever shared beyond the judging panel. Judges consider the size of the practice or team, so sole practitioners and smaller firms compete on equal terms.
