Job Description
Why this role after qualifying?Many newly-qualified accountants are attracted by opportunities in industry. However, remaining in practice for a further period can provide significant benefits to your long-term career. This role offers exposure to a wider variety of businesses, industries and commercial challenges than most single-company finance roles, while also giving you the opportunity to develop leadership, client management and technical expertise. It is an excellent stepping stone for those looking to build a broader skill set before deciding on a long-term specialism, whether that ultimately remains in practice or leads to a move into industry in the future.

This established and growing accountancy practice works with a broad portfolio of owner-managed businesses, charities and not-for-profit organisations across a range of sectors. With a strong reputation for client service and staff development, the firm offers a collaborative environment where people are encouraged to develop their skills and progress their careers.

Key responsibilities will include:
Leading audit assignments from planning through to completion.
Reviewing audit work and providing coaching to junior staff.
Preparing and reviewing statutory accounts and related reports.
Identifying key audit risks and ensuring compliance with professional standards.
Liaising directly with clients and building strong working relationships.
Managing budgets, timescales and workflow across multiple assignments.
Supporting partners and managers with wider client service activities and business development initiatives.What you'll need to succeed
ACA or ACCA qualified.
Current Audit Supervisor or an experienced Audit Senior looking to step up.
Strong knowledge of UK audit and accounting standards.
Experience supervising and developing junior team members.
Excellent communication and relationship-building skills.

Competitive salary and benefits package.
Hybrid and flexible working arrangements.
Clear opportunities for career progression.
Ongoing professional development and training.
Exposure to a diverse and interesting client portfolio.
Supportive and collaborative working environment.
The opportunity to continue building your technical and commercial expertise post-qualification before specialising in a particular industry sector.
Exposure to a broad range of businesses, stakeholders and industries, helping you develop a wider skill set than many first-time moves into industry can offer.
Increased responsibility for managing client relationships, mentoring junior staff and leading assignments, providing valuable leadership experience at an early stage of your career.
A strong platform for future career options, whether your long-term goal is to progress within practice or move into industry at a later stage with broader experience and greater commercial exposure.
