Job Description

AUDIT SUPERVISOR / AUDIT MANAGER

Brighton | £45,000 to £60,000 | Mixed audit, accounts and tax

Plenty of audit roles at this level narrow you down to one sector andone type of file. This one does the opposite. You will run a variedportfolio covering corporate audit, some not for profit work, accountspreparation and tax, so the year has some shape to it rather than the

same job on repeat.

The firm is happy to look at this at either Supervisor or Managerlevel, so it suits someone ready to step up as much as someone alreadymanaging a portfolio.

They are part of a growing accountancy group with a wellestablished Brighton office. The group has expanded by acquiringsuccessful independent practices and then leaving them to keep doingwhat already works, so you get proper local autonomy with the backing

of a larger business behind you.

• Some experience of reviewing or supervising junior staff, or readyto take that on properly for the first time
• Comfortable working across different client types and sectors
• Good communicator who enjoys building client relationships
• Someone who likes developing people, not just signing off files

WHY IT IS WORTH A LOOK

• A genuinely mixed role. Audit, accounts and tax, rather than beingboxed into one discipline
• A defined roadmap to Responsible Individual, not a vague promise ofprogression
• Real input into how the department grows, rather than just deliveringan existing portfolio
• The wider group brings corporate finance and M&A, tax and insolvency,so there is somewhere to go beyond audit
• Hybrid working, with the pattern agreed to suit

WHAT'S ON OFFER

• £45,000 to £60,000 depending on experience and level
• Pension
