Are you a technically strong Audit Manager with international firm experience, ready to step away from statutory audit and into a strategic advisory role with a global financial institution?

We're hiring an Accounting Policy Advisor for our global services client. Based in Glasgow, this is a rare chance to move into a centre of technical excellence influencing global accounting standards and policy direction across US GAAP, IFRS and UK GAAP (FRS 101).

What's on offer?

• Up to £65,000 + bonus + full benefits
• True hybrid working with minimal travel
• A global platform without needing to relocate
• World-class training, exposure to senior stakeholders, and the chance to shape firmwide accounting policy

What you'll bring:

• A recognised accountancy qualification (CA/ACCA/ACA/CPA or equivalent)
• A strong foundation in IFRS and/or UK GAAP
• The ability to explain complex technical matters with clarity
• An appetite to grow your technical depth in a dynamic, collaborative environment

This is a fantastic move for those seeking a long-term technical career path outside of audit, while still applying their core expertise.
