Our Capital Markets team is the leading practice of its kind in any professional services firm globally. It provides assurance and related services to clients accessing the capital markets. We provide regulatory and reporting advice with a focus on the United States of America (US) and United Kingdom (UK).

This is a high-profile role working with some of our most interesting clients and offers an exciting opportunity to significantly enhance your career. We are seeking US or UK qualified accountants with significant PCAOB & SEC auditing and reporting experience. You will benefit from exposure to our SEC foreign private issuers and private companies preparing for a US IPO.

Your key responsibilities:

• Utilizing your skills with PCAOB audits, US GAAP, SOX and SEC reporting
• Leading and delivering technical accounting support
• Project managing transactions and coaching
• Building your network internationally

The skills and attributes for success:

Colleagues and clients will look to you for guidance, so you’ll be a prominent professional when it comes to resolving complex issues. As you build on your pre-existing knowledge and experience of PCAOB, US GAAP, and SEC accounting and reporting requirements, you’ll become an increasingly credible advisor, influencing clients and teams.

To qualify for the role, you must have:

• Fully qualified as a US CPA or UK equivalent
• Minimum of 5 years’ PCAOB audit experience
