Our client, a UK professional services firm offering audit, tax, advisory and consulting services, is looking for a Senior Associate to join its specialist Not-for-Profit audit team, based in the Thames Valley.
Why This Firm
This firm's charity and not-for-profit audit practice has been independently recognised as the UK's leading charity auditor for well over a decade running and sits within a wider organisation that's part of one of the world's largest accounting networks, spanning tens of thousands of professionals and hundreds of offices worldwide. That scale brings real technical resource and career mobility, while the Not-for-Profit team itself keeps the close-knit, mission-driven feel that first draws people to this kind of work.
What The Job Involves
You'll work across a genuinely varied portfolio within the not-for-profit sector, including charities, schools, academies, grant-makers, membership organisations and professional bodies, alongside experienced Partners, Directors and Managers with deep knowledge of the sector. Your role will be broad and hands-on: managing a team of auditors, building strong client relationships, and thinking beyond pure compliance to help clients improve governance and impact.
What You'll Need
- A genuine passion for audit and/or the charity, non-profit and social purpose sector
- The ability to act as a role model for junior colleagues and trainees
- A track record of building strong, value-adding client relationships
- The ability to think beyond compliance, spotting opportunities to improve governance and culture
- Excellent team-working skills and a collaborative approach
What's On Offer
Beyond the sector-leading reputation of the team itself, you'll get a clear and structured career pathway with genuine investment in your development, including mentoring and paid study support. There's a competitive salary and flexible benefits package, a pension with employer contribution, life assurance, enhanced family leave and an electric vehicle salary sacrifice scheme. The firm promotes agile and flexible working as standard, backed by a dedicated wellbeing strategy and regular opportunities to get involved in volunteering and community work.
If purpose-led audit work is what you're looking for, we'd love to hear from you.
