Job description

Are you an ACA or ACCA Part Qualified or Finalist (with no more than 4 exams remaining) Audit Semi Senior or Audit Senior (with at least 50% audit experience in your current role), looking to upgrade to a niche accountancy firm with a non corporate environment and friendly atmosphere, but client base to rival a much larger firm? Are you looking to work for a firm which will also offer you flexible working arrangements as well as first rate training, support and progression? Are you looking for study support for your remaining ACA or ACCA exams? Are you keen to gain exposure to sectors such as property, technology, gaming, financial services, retail, entertainment as well as other interesting sectors? Would you like to work for one of the leading independent practice firms in London that is growing at a rapid pace and is winning lots of large clients from larger accountancy firms, and so requires a new member of staff to help audit these clients? In this new role your role will be 90% audit based and 10% statutory accounts preparation. You will be responsible for leading audits from planning to completion, managing one junior, reviewing work and starting to manage your own portfolio of clients. You will also carry out ad hoc assignments and advisory based projects. Your role will be varied, hugely enjoyable and you can expect to progress to a higher level in a short space of time. The firm will look at someone part qualified or a finalist, but you must have around 3 years experience. The firm are also happy to look at someone who has failed a number of exams.

To be considered for this new role (July 2025) you must be a part qualified ACA or ACCA or a finalist, with no more than 4 exams remaining. You must have 3 years experience and your current role must be at least 50% audit based. You must ideally have experience of all stages of the audit process and be able to lead audits. You will be looking to join a mid tier practice firm where you can achieve a better work life balance and better promotion prospects but still work with large clients.

This mid tier practice based in a prime location in a City location in London is growing at a rapid rate, particularly in gaining new, larger clients from larger accountancy firms including the Big 4 and Top 10. They are winning a large volume of new clients from many of their competitors and can offer you the chance to work on and advise many interesting and large international groups and listed businesses both in the UK and abroad. Promotional prospects are very strong and you will be given every opportunity to progress to a higher level in a short space of time. Overall this is an excellent opportunity for an ACA or ACCA finalist who can lead audits to join a niche, growing medium sized practice and carry out a high profile and rewarding new audit position where you will work on a client base to rival a larger firm yet retain a good work life balance in a friendly and supportive firm.
