Shape the Future of Audit in Birmingham – Audit Director Opportunity

Ready to make your mark in a firm where growth, innovation, and people come first? A leading accountancy practice is opening a new chapter in Birmingham — and they’re looking for a seasoned Audit Director to lead the charge.

This is more than just a senior role. It’s a chance to help build a new office from the ground up, influence strategic direction, and fast-track your path to partnership.

*The Role

You’ll take ownership of the audit function in Birmingham alongside the Partner's, delivering high-quality services across corporate, not-for-profit, and charitable sectors. As part of the regional leadership team, you’ll shape expansion plans, attract and develop talented professionals, and grow a loyal client base through outstanding relationship management and commercial insight.

*Key Aspects of the Role:

• Lead and grow a dynamic audit team in a new and exciting market
• Take the reins on a varied portfolio of clients and complex audit engagements
• Guide and support the development of team members at all levels
• Partner with senior leadership to drive growth and establish a strong regional presence
• Actively develop new business opportunities and deepen client relationships

*What We’re Looking For

• Professionally qualified (ACA/ACCA or equivalent) with a track record in leading audit assignments
• Skilled at building client trust and communicating with clarity and confidence
• Passionate about leadership, mentoring, and team development
• Ambitious and proactive with a strong network in the Birmingham business community
• Commercially minded and eager to play a key role in regional expansion
• Candidates who are currently a Senior Manager looking for that step up will be considered

*Why This Opportunity Stands Out

This is your chance to be part of something new, with the support of a firm that has consistently grown and outperformed the market. You’ll work in an environment that values your input, encourages autonomy, and champions flexibility and wellbeing.

*What’s in It for You

• 30 days annual leave plus bank holidays and a full office closure over Christmas
• Flexible hybrid working to support balance and wellbeing
• Generous pension contribution and life assurance

This firm is committed to creating an inclusive and supportive environment where everyone can thrive. Flexible working, part-time arrangements, and hybrid options are all available.
