The Opportunity

This is far more than a typical Audit Assistant Manager position. In addition to overseeing audits and nurturing client relationships, the successful candidate will join a firm experiencing rapid, purposeful growth under the leadership of a former Big Four Partner known for vision and humility.

The role offers a chance to shape a dynamic, expanding division, working with an impressive portfolio that includes private equity-backed companies, AIM-listed organisations, and notable SMEs. Responsibilities include managing full-cycle audits, mentoring junior team members, and contributing directly to the firm’s evolution. This environment is free from unnecessary red tape — one where professionals make a tangible impact.

Client Portfolio

The successful candidate will gain exposure to a diverse range of clients across industry, size, and complexity. From large, private businesses and listed companies to dynamic startups and entrepreneurs, the client base emphasizes quality over volume, allowing for deeper engagement and more strategic thinking.

For those interested in stepping beyond traditional audit, the firm offers room to explore advisory services, client strategy, and internal innovation initiatives.

Ideal Candidate Profile

  • ACA or ACCA qualified (or nearing completion)
  • Demonstrated experience in leading audits, managing client relationships, and mentoring teams
  • Strong knowledge of UK GAAP, IFRS, and relevant audit standards
  • Empathetic leadership style, clear communicator, and purpose-driven mentor
  • Seeking a workplace that offers autonomy, flexibility, and a supportive culture

Tech Stack

The firm leverages modern, user-friendly software systems. Candidates with a knack for technology and an interest in streamlining audit workflows will find this environment both efficient and future-ready.

  • Truly unlimited holiday allowance
  • Private healthcare coverage
  • Clear and supported career progression pathways
  • Inclusive, respectful, and collaborative culture
