About the role

We seek a professional and driven candidate to join us as an Executive in our new Financial Reporting team. The purpose of this team will be to elevate the provision of our accounting and reporting service to Audit clients to the ‘next level’. Whilst our talented Auditors have previously provided this service to their clients, our portfolio has now grown to such a size that it demands more focussed attention.


Therefore, this is a unique opportunity for someone to add instant value to our firm – producing work that will rapidly make a positive difference to our clients and colleagues alike.

Joining as an Executive, the primary scope of the role will be to take full ownership of providing a best-in-class accounts preparation & financial reporting service for our varied portfolio of Audit clients which include multinational groups, PLCs, listed companies, owner-managed businesses and leading charities, large academies and schools.


As a key part of one of the largest Audit teams in the Thames Valley region, and that has been named the UK’s leading charity auditor for the last 14 years running, your role will involve:

  • Preparation of statutory accounts, financial reports, consolidations and disclosures under a range of reporting and accounting standards (IFRS, UK GAAP, Charities SORP, FRS 102, etc.)
  • Supporting the Audit team with client queries regarding clients’ accounts.
  • Supporting the audit team in finalising statutory financial statement production as part of the audit process.
  • Liaising with departments across the firm to ensure client requirements are met and clients are provided with the highest level of service.
  • Act as a key contact with clients to identify client-specific areas of judgement, provisioning and risks
  • Understanding the regulatory requirements of each client and maintaining your CPD in relation to any regulator updates to relevant standards.
  • General and ad-hoc support to the Audit team.


The technical skills, experience and background we’d expect to see from candidates suitable for this opportunity include:

  • Experience of preparing full sets of statutory accounts in a professional services environment. Experience of different accounting standards to include IFRS, UK GAAP, Charity SORP, FRS 102, etc.).
  • Some audit experience would also be preferable, though not essential.
  • An appetite for professional self-development and providing exemplary levels of client service.
  • Excellent relationship-building and communication skills, being able to quickly and confidently build lasting relationships with clients and colleagues alike; shaping a proactive, responsive and value-adding service to our clients.
  • An accountancy qualification (such as ACA or ACCA or equivalent) would be preferred.


Why choose Crowe?

At Crowe we understand that it is often the culture and values of a firm that are most important when looking for a new workplace.


Whether you’re working in statutory audit, corporate tax or you’re a marketing or HR specialist, we place our people at the centre of everything that we do; promoting a collaborative, inclusive and friendly culture while remaining passionate about supporting and developing our people as they build their careers. We listen to our people and adapt to their changing needs alongside the needs of our growing business. We invest in our people to help them be the best they can be.

We value new ideas and innovation, and welcome people who are committed to making a difference by delivering excellent services to our people, clients and communities.


At Crowe, you will find the specialist knowledge, the resources and the commitment to help you build a satisfying and rewarding career, with continued learning and development, highly competitive salaries and flexible benefits.


We want to create the best environment for our people to grow and thrive and recognise the importance of offering a flexible approach to our working environment, which we would be happy to discuss with you further.
