As Audit Manager, you'll play a key role in overseeing audits, ensuring compliance, and delivering valuable insights to clients across a variety of sectors.

• Oversee the preparation of financial statements and tax compliance for a portfolio of corporate clients.
• Act as a key point of contact for clients, building strong, long-term relationships and offering proactive advice.
• Manage, mentor, and support a team of trainees and junior auditors, helping them develop their skills and progress in their careers.
• Review working papers and audit files before submission to senior leadership, ensuring accuracy and compliance with UK GAAP and ISAs.
• Identify and implement process improvements to enhance audit efficiency and client service.

What We're Looking For:

• ACA or ACCA qualified, with at least two years of post-qualification experience (recently qualified candidates with strong audit experience will also be considered).
• Strong technical knowledge of UK GAAP and auditing standards, with experience in planning and leading audits.
• A confident communicator who can work effectively with clients and colleagues alike.
• Proven experience managing corporate clients with turnovers between 5-25 million.
• A self-motivated leader with excellent attention to detail and the ability to perform under pressure.

This firm offers a fantastic working culture, valuing both professional and personal development. For the right candidate there is also the opportunity for quick development and opportunities to partnership, too. You'll be joining a friendly and supportive team, working closely with senior leadership to drive success.
