However, as we prepare to take the FRT offering to market, there is significant opportunity to expand into large, complex external assignments and work directly with external auditors.

You’ll control a portfolio of financial reporting matters, with the support of client managers, support junior team members, and play a key role in maintaining high standards and timely delivery. This is a fast-paced, technically demanding role ideal for someone with experience in preparing complex accounts.

• Prepare, review or delegate FRT assignments in line with agreed budgets, internal standards and “The Life of an FRT Assignment”.
• Work on larger and more complex FRT accounts, including consolidations, researching technical issues and escalating where required.
• Supervise, support and review the work of semi‑seniors, assistants and offshore colleagues.
• Monitor progress across multiple engagements, managing deadlines, expectations and communication with stakeholders.
• Ensure files are complete, review‑ready and meet documentation, compliance and internal hygiene standards.
• Clear review points raised by managers, directors, partners and audit teams.
• Support the development of junior team members through clear task planning, feedback and on‑the‑job coaching.
• Contribute to service line growth through collaboration, business development activity and cross‑service line working.

What we're looking for

• Strong technical knowledge of financial reporting and FRT accounts preparation.
• Experience working on consolidations and larger, more complex financial reporting assignments.
• Understanding of and ability to apply “The Life of an FRT Assignment” and internal quality standards.
• Experience supervising semi‑seniors, assistants and offshore teams.
• Ability to review junior work, identify technical issues and provide clear feedback.
• Strong communication skills with the confidence to liaise with audit teams, clients and senior stakeholders.
• Good organisational skills with the ability to manage multiple assignments and priorities.
• A proactive and collaborative approach, with a focus on quality, continuous improvement and team development.

What we can offer

• Financial wellbeing – competitive salary, contributory pension scheme, Life Assurance, Health Cash Plan, Income Protection Scheme and Perks at Work discounts and rewards.
• Leave – 25.5 days plus.
