Are you keen to work in a firm with excellent progression to manager grade on offer? Your role will be split 50% statutory accounts and tax with 50% spent on audit assignments and other ad hoc projects. If you don’t have any audit experience full training and support will be provided. All staff in this firm carry out mixed general practice roles so you will gain exposure to all areas of accountancy. Based in a firm with around 50 staff, you will be responsible for preparing statutory accounts for a wide range of clients, as well as corporation tax computations and leading audit assignments from planning to completion.

Your role will be varied, challenging and hugely enjoyable with great progression prospects to manager grade on offer. In this new role, you will gain exposure to a wide range of UK and international clients, including groups, from sectors including property, legal, financial services, technology, retail, media and other interesting sectors. The firm would look at a recently qualified ACA, someone exam qualified or someone with some post qualification experience.
