Job Description

:

NEW GROUND WON’T BREAK ITSELF.   

 Within our Audit practice, we’re very keen to support and hire those who have had career breaks or time away from Audit, who would like to return to a busy, flexible auditing role. Our vacancies for qualified Auditors are all open to supporting the up-skilling and re-integration of returners to our business.

Every day our teams help people in businesses and communities to do what is right and achieve their goals. Our tailored and responsive approach provides the expertise our clients need, enabling them to grow and make the right decisions about their future. 

Now’s the time to take everything you know about audit to the next level, with our growing portfolio of clients. The constantly evolving landscape calls for an approach that puts what is right first, ahead of what is easy, and you will need to push ideas harder and ask difficult questions, giving our clients the assurance they need. 

We’re happy to talk flexible working and consider reduced hours and job shares, we’ll support you to balance your work and life.

  • Constantly strive to push yourself, and the business, further, knowing you’re supported through every stage 
     
  • Knowing you’re right for us   

    Joining us as an Senior Audit Manager, the  minimum criteria  you’ll need is a professional qualification (ACA, ICAS, CA, ACCA or CIPFA), and to be confident leading audits of varying sizes. It would be great if you had some of the following skills, but don’t worry if you don’t tick every box, we’ll help you develop along the way.

  • Excellent knowledge of UK GAAP / FRS102 
  • An interest in our clients, with the ability to confidently discuss business challenges and needs 
  • Excellent people management skills
  • Extensive experience of using audit software and Microsoft packages 
  • Project management experience
  • An interest in maintaining and developing your technical knowledge 
  • Knowing we’re right for you

Building an inclusive culture, where we value difference and respect our colleagues, helps our people to perform at the best of their ability and realise their potential. 

    Our open and accessible culture means you’ll interact with leaders who are interested in you and everything you bring to our firm. The things that set you apart, we value them. That’s why we give you the freedom to bring your whole self to work and pursue your passions inside and outside of work.

    Beyond the job  

     Life is more than work. The things you do, and the people you’re with outside of work matter, that’s why we’re happy to look at flexible working options for all our roles, and we’ll always do our best to keep your work and life in balance. 

    The impact you can make here will go far beyond your day job. From secondments, to fundraising for local charities, or investing in entrepreneurs in the developing world, you’ll be giving back to society. It’s that drive to do the right thing that runs through our every move, grounded in our firm’s values – purposefully driven, actively curious and candid but kind.

    We’re looking for people who want to contribute, spark fresh ideas and go beyond expectations. People who want to be able to proudly do what’s right, for the firm, our clients, our people and themselves.  It’s how it should be.
