Manchester | Hybrid Working | ACA / ACCA Qualified or Part-Qualified
Are you an Audit Senior looking for a role where you can take real ownership of audits, work directly with clients and continue progressing within a growing accountancy practice?
I’m working exclusively with a forward-thinking accountancy firm in Manchester that is looking to strengthen its audit team with an experienced Audit Senior.
This is a great opportunity for someone who enjoys being client-facing and wants more than simply completing sections of an audit file. You’ll be involved throughout the audit process, lead work on-site and have the opportunity to support and develop more junior members of the team.
The role
As Audit Senior, you’ll work closely with Audit Managers and Directors across a varied portfolio of clients.
Your responsibilities will include:
* Planning and executing external audits from start to completion
* Leading audit assignments and coordinating the onsite audit team
* Working across a varied portfolio, including owner-managed businesses
* Building strong relationships and becoming a key point of contact for clients
* Identifying issues and communicating findings effectively to managers and clients
* Coaching and supporting trainees and Semi Seniors
* Ensuring audits are completed efficiently and to a high standard
* Getting involved in the wider development of the audit team
What are we looking for?
You’ll ideally be:
* ACA / ACCA qualified or part-qualified
* Experienced within external audit in an accountancy practice
* Comfortable leading or taking ownership of audit assignments
* Experienced across a range of audit clients, including OMBs
* Confident dealing directly with clients
* Someone who enjoys supporting and developing junior team members
* Comfortable working with modern accounting and audit technology
* Ambitious and looking for a firm where you can continue developing your career
Knowledge of CCH would be beneficial but isn't essential.
What's on offer?
Alongside a competitive salary, the firm offers:
* Flexible hybrid working
* Generous annual leave plus an additional day off for your birthday
* Tailored learning and development
* Clear opportunities for career progression
* Company pension
* Salary sacrifice car scheme
* Holiday purchase scheme
* Dedicated volunteering day
* Health and wellbeing support
* Regular social and community events
This could be a brilliant move for an Audit Senior who wants to join a progressive Manchester practice, gain broader exposure and have a genuine opportunity to develop.
