About the role
We’re looking for an ambitious and solutions-driven individual to join our Accounts and Audit team as an Assistant Manager. You’ll work directly with a broad range of clients, as well as Partners and senior leadership, helping to deliver high-quality audits and accounts across a growing portfolio.
This is a role where you’ll be trusted to take ownership, lead client meetings, and mentor junior team members, while being fully supported by a collaborative team around you. With a mix of audit and non-audit work, you’ll enjoy variety, challenge and plenty of opportunity to make your mark

You’ll have:
- ACA or ACCA qualification
- A minimum of 3 years’ experience
- Excellent communication and interpersonal skills
- Strong organisational skills and attention to detail
- Confidence juggling multiple projects and meeting tight deadlines
- Good working knowledge of Excel
