This is a fantastic opportunity to work with a varied and genuinely interesting client base across charities, membership bodies, medical research organisations and independent schools - all within a collaborative, single-office team environment.

- Reviewing work and providing constructive feedback
- Liaising regularly with managers on audit progress
- Identifying improvements in client systems and controls
- Keeping up to date with audit and accounting standards
- Supporting the wider Social Purpose team with technical input
You'll be client-facing and will need to be comfortable travelling to client sites as required.
