Audit is our largest service line nationally, and we are growing

We provide comprehensive Audit services to clients ranging from OMBs, through to large listed PLCs. We believe that it is important for our people to have experience across a range of industries and sectors, so we do not typically have individuals in our teams working on only one type of client.

You will oversee the effective management of a substantial portfolio of clients; planning assignments, briefing staff on the clients’ business, ensuring all work carried out is compliant with government legislation and that client and statutory deadlines are routinely met and exceeded.

  • Perform the firm’s review and completion procedures, to attend the final meeting with the client, and to ensure that the client subsequently receives the final accounts and commercial management letter on a timely basis
  • Ensure the profitable recoverability of work in progress, and to bill clients on a timely basis
  • Maintain an advanced level of technical knowledge through appropriate reading and courses, and to fulfill the Institute’s CPD requirements
