At haysmacintyre, Audit is about more than just reviewing financial records and a company’s control environment. It has a true societal impact and purpose – aiming to provide solutions to our clients and adopting an added value approach. We have clients across the UK where you will have the opportunity to gain exposure to different environments and projects.

As an Audit Semi-Senior, you will have had experience of leading small audits from the planning stage right through to the completion stage including supervising junior members of staff within your audit team and be in the process of studying for the professional stage of the ACA qualification or ACCA equivalent. This role will be client facing, where you will need to show willingness to work as part of a team and be able to meet deadlines, as well as travel to clients’ premises and work around clients’ working hours as necessary.

Joining as a Semi-Senior, you will have access to personal development programmes and high-quality training whilst continuing to work towards your ACA/ACCA professional qualification, alongside mentoring and support from peers and leaders alike. You will be assigned a line manager and a buddy from day one to support your career and development, and help you transition into working at haysmacintyre.

We host events so you can socialise with your colleagues outside of work, and network with other people at haysmacintyre. From our Summer sports day party to events organised by our Connect committee such as cycling at the velodrome, puppy yoga and pottery painting, we pride ourselves on making time for one another.

We give you the opportunity to support local communities through our Corporate Social Responsibility (“CSR”) programme. We highly value supporting local causes, and we welcome and encourage our staff to participate in charity events and fundraising they are interested in.

As a firm, we are committed to environmental and sustainability initiatives. We demonstrate this commitment through several schemes, such as implementing energy-efficient practices and technologies throughout our operations. We also encourage everyone to play their part in the office, promoting recycling, reusing materials and reducing the amount of paper used in day-to-day operations.

We are looking for candidates who want to advance their career in Audit by being exposed to a wide range of UK and international clients. Our firm values are very important to us, and we are seeking candidates who equally value these. You will be motivated by having hands on experience working with clients, as well as collaborating with Seniors, Managers, Directors and Partners across the firm. In return, we offer a supportive environment whereby working together with you, we can propel your personal and professional development for a successful career in Audit at haysmacintyre.
