Audit Assistant Manager

Our client, a UK professional services firm offering audit, tax, accountancy, advisory, outsourcing and wealth management, is looking for an Audit Assistant Manager to join their London team.
Why This Firm
This is a firm that's been climbing the rankings among the UK's larger accountancy firms, with strong year-on-year revenue growth and a clear ambition to break into the top 10. For someone at Assistant Manager level, that kind of trajectory tends to mean faster progression and more responsibility landing on your desk sooner than it would at a firm that's standing still.

Supervising and developing junior team members, reviewing their work and supporting their progression
Liaising directly with clients across a range of sectors, understanding their businesses and identifying areas of risk

Reporting to Audit Managers and Partners on engagement progress and key findings
Contributing to business development and helping to identify opportunities within existing client relationships
What You'll Need
ACA/ACCA qualified (or equivalent), with solid external audit experience
Proven experience managing audit teams and client relationships
Strong technical knowledge of UK GAAP and/or IFRS
Excellent communication skills and confidence dealing directly with clients
Ambition to progress within a firm that's actively investing in growth
What's On Offer
A genuine focus on work-life balance and flexible working, supportive teams and a progressive culture, plus structured professional development, mentoring and training built into day-to-day client work. There's also a comprehensive wellbeing strategy covering physical, mental and emotional health, including access to an Employee Assistance Programme with a large network of medical specialists and trained in-house Mental Health First Aiders.
