Chelmsford Full-Time On-site

Are you a part qualified or newly qualified ACA or ACCA professional looking to build your audit career within a growing, independent accountancy firm?

At Rickard Luckin, we pride ourselves on taking a professional, passionate and personal approach. Not just with our clients, but with our people too.

Our firm remains proudly independent, owned and led by people who live and work in the same communities as our colleagues. This independence is not just a business model, it's a philosophy that shapes how we support, develop and grow with our people.

With continued demand for high quality audit work, this is an exciting time to join our team. You'll work with a diverse range of clients, from entrepreneurial owner managed businesses to larger groups and subsidiaries, gaining exposure to different sectors and developing your technical and commercial skills along the way.

About The Role

As an Audit Semi Senior, you'll play an important role within our audit team, working closely with Seniors, Managers and Directors to deliver high quality audits for a varied client portfolio.

This is a great opportunity for someone who already has a good grounding in audit and is looking to take the next step in their career. You'll gradually take on more responsibility as your experience develops, with the support and training you need to progress towards Audit Senior.

Your role will include:

  • Assisting with the planning and completion of audits from start to finish
  • Taking responsibility for specific sections of audit assignments
  • Preparing audit working papers and supporting the completion of audit files
  • Performing substantive and analytical audit testing
  • Identifying issues and discussing findings with Seniors and Managers
  • Building an understanding of clients, their businesses and the risks they face
  • Working directly with clients and developing strong professional relationships
  • Supporting and mentoring junior members of the team as your experience develops
  • Working collaboratively with our Accounts, Tax and Corporate Finance teams

As you develop, you'll also have opportunities to get involved in:

  • Larger and more complex audit assignments
  • Group audits and consolidated accounts
  • Clients undergoing M&A or restructuring activity
  • Accounts and advisory work alongside your core audit experience

About You

We're looking for someone who is keen to continue developing their audit career and wants to take on increasing responsibility.

You'll ideally have:

  • Experience working within an audit environment
  • ACA or ACCA studies underway, recently completed or equivalent practical experience
  • A good understanding of auditing principles and accounting standards
  • Strong attention to detail and a willingness to learn
  • Good organisation skills and the ability to manage your own workload
  • Confidence communicating with colleagues and clients
  • A commercial mindset and an interest in understanding the businesses you work with
  • A team focused approach and a willingness to support others
  • Most importantly, we're looking for someone who wants to progress. You don't need to have everything figured out yet. We'll support you in building the technical knowledge, confidence and experience needed for the next stage of your career.

Why Rickard Luckin?

We're proudly independent, which means our people have access to senior leaders, our clients and opportunities across the business.

We've created an environment where people can develop their careers without having to follow a one size fits all path. Some of our people have moved between teams as their interests have developed, while others have built long term careers within audit.

If audit is where you want to progress, we'll support you in that too.
