Audit Senior / Executive (London) - mid-tier firm - up to £55,000 (hybrid working)
An opportunity has arisen for a recently qualified ACA / ACCA Audit Senior to join the London office of a mid-tier practice firm. This position has come about due to the winning of new business.
To be eligible for this position you need to fulfil the following:
Have full UK working eligibility (i.e. hold a full British passport or a valid UK working visa)
Be ACA or ACCA qualified (or at least have sat your final set of exams and awaiting your results)
Have 3 years' UK practice experience conducting audits (ideally from planning to completion)
Have strong technical skills encompassing both FRS 102 and IFRS
Have excellent communication skills (spoken, written, interpersonal)
With this firm being in the Top-20 list of UK's largest and most prestigious accountancy practices, naturally a high standard is expected from any given candidate.
Your role will entail audit fieldwork testing on clients spanning different industry sectors. On some assignments you shall also be leading on audits and be responsible for managing a team of juniors.
Progression within the firm is very strongly encouraged as there will be regular appraisals assessing development within the role and be set targets to achieve to climb the career ladder within.
For your hard work and efforts you shall be rewarded with a generous salary and all-round benefits package. As my client is keen to appoint sooner rather than later, applications are welcome ASAP.

Audit Senior - London (Top-30) - up to £55,000 (hybrid working)
A recently qualified ACA or ACCA is required to join the London office of a reputable Top-30 firm. This is a great chance to take your career to the next level having just qualified.
For this role, you will need to be a good team player, able to lead audits and possess good organisational, planning, and delegation skills. You shall be working on a whole host of different clients across a variety of different sectors from OMB's (owner managed businesses) right through to substantial corporations as well as encountering charitable / NFP organisations. This in turn will give you exposure to utilising your existing skills to the max by taking charge of assignments whilst supervising juniors and providing a high level of service to the client.
If you enjoy having variety and constantly being kept on your toes - rather than being a specialist in one given sector - then this is definitely the role for you. In many cases, you shall effectively be operating as a trusted business advisor, especially with OMB clients, as you will have direct proximity to those business owners and they shall be relying on you to give them solid professional advice. This would therefore suit an outgoing, go-getter who thrives on the opportunity to put into action what they have learnt and take it to the next level.
Along with the audit element to this role, given the nature of clients you shall be working on, there will be ample opportunity to also keep up your accounting and taxation skills, thus, ensuring you remain very much as an all-rounded accountant. Again, this will appeal to those who want to take a deliberate step away from more corporate environments where audit is the strict order of the day!
Progression within this role is another key aspect and if you are not moving up the ladder internally every 12-18 months, then you simply aren't doing your job right. My client is only keen on those ambitious, hard-working individuals who want to see results for the effort they put in, and this organisation is well known for rewarding their staff generously on various levels (professionally and financially).
CV applications are currently being taken as the client is looking to short-list for interview in the coming few days and begin the interview process. Please therefore make your CV application to Samik Roy at Warner Scott Recruitment - sr@warnerscott.com - to put yourself in contention for this fantastic role.

Audit & Accounts Senior - £50-55,000
My client, a multi Partner, medium-sized central London audit & accounting firm, who have a rich history spanning decades, built from forming a strong reputation for excellence and integrity in the industry are looking to add a solid and high calibre Audit & Accounts Senior to their successful and growing team.
The successful applicant will be a qualified individual holding either the ACA or ACCA qualification and 3 years' UK practice experience behind them.
The portfolio of clients you shall be able to work ion in this job will be most interesting: celebrities (sports / music / entertainment) as well as real estate, retail, financial services and a general mix of OMB / SME clients from other commercial sectors.
The key responsibilities will include:
- Lead audit engagements, overseeing all stages from planning to completion, while ensuring compliance with relevant regulations and standards.
- Conduct risk assessments and tailor audit programs to address key areas of concern.
- Prepare audit planning documentation, including programs and budgets, in a timely manner.
- Perform substantive testing and compliance checks, identifying and resolving any discrepancies.
- Co-ordinate and manage audit teams, ensuring assignments are completed within established timeframes.
- Prepare financial statements (under FRS 102) and provide recommendations for improvement.
- Mentor junior staff members, providing support and guidance as needed.
With nice new plush offices in the heart of central London and a vibrant and friendly team who get on really well whilst welcoming other likeminded friendly professional individuals to join them, along with having an excellent work-life balance, fast-track career progression - this should all be nicely geared up for any recently qualified Senior auditor / accountant to want to challenge themselves in such an organisation.
All in all, this is an exciting opportunity that would lead to much job satisfaction and be rewarded accordingly - surpassing many counterpart Seniors in the larger, more corporate and reputable audit firms where the hours are much longer, the progression is far slower and being able to reach Partner level is for all intents and purposes virtually unattainable!
If you feel that you want to be recognised, rewarded and compensated for the effort you put into your work, then joining this client of mine would pay real dividends and one that you will look back in the near future and give yourself a pat on the back for making this smart and highly important decision!
Before your peers clock onto this and surpass you in their path to progression, it would be highly advisable to give yourself this opportunity and apply for this position!
