Job description

Your new company
This Big 5 Firm Pension Audit Team offers highly flexible, hybrid roles with minimal travel and adaptable office locations. Alongside the advantages of working in a large firm, this niche team provides experienced senior management, excellent work-life balance, and the opportunity to collaborate with some of the UK's largest Pension Schemes.

Your new role
In this home-based or hybrid office-based, project-focused role, you will work with some of the UK's largest companies-without the travel or overtime typically associated with external audit.
You will:

• Identify and understand the needs of the audited entity, proposing solutions for technical matters.
• Work closely with Managers and Partners to present recommendations aligned with relevant requirements.
• Build and maintain strong relationships with both new and established Pension Scheme clients and the national Pension Audit Team.

What you'll need to succeed

• A desire to grow your career in Pension Audit.
• ACA/ACCA/ICAS qualification or an overseas equivalent.
• Knowledge of UK and International GAAS, IFRS, UK GAAP, and financial reporting requirements.
• Ability to work effectively in a remote team and engage with clients without frequent site visits.

What you'll get in return

• Various office locations with flexible hybrid working (2-3 days a week in the office, or just 1 day a week for experienced or remote Pension Audit Seniors).
• A comprehensive, flexible benefits package including retail and leisure discounts.
• Private healthcare, life assurance, and pension contributions.
• 25 days' holiday, with options to increase.
• Training, CPD, and social activities tailored to your role and lifestyle.
