Description:
Audit Senior | Shrewsbury | Flexible working
There is a point in an audit career where you stop being told what to do on a job and start being the one running it. This role sits exactly there.
An established independent firm in Shrewsbury is looking for an Audit Senior to take day-to-day ownership of audit assignments across a genuinely mixed portfolio. Owner-managed businesses, groups, charities, FCA-regulated clients, solicitors, manufacturing and agri-business all sit within the client base, so no two jobs look quite the same.
You will be leading fieldwork, acting as the main point of contact while you are on site, and handing over a file that is ready for manager review. Trainees will be working alongside you, and part of the role is bringing them on.
WHAT YOU'LL BE DOING
Leading audit fieldwork from planning through to completion
Preparing draft statutory accounts and corporation tax computations
Being the client's day-to-day contact during the audit
Reviewing and coaching trainees on the job
Spotting issues early and dealing with them, rather than passing them up unopened
WHAT THEY'RE LOOKING FOR
ACA or ACCA qualified, or a finalist with solid audit experience behind you
Two to three years' external audit experience in UK practice
Confident running your own fieldwork
Good with FRS 102, and happy to pick up specialist frameworks like the Charities SORP
WHAT'S ON OFFER
Great salary. plus exceptional benefits
Flexible working, with three to five days per week considered
A varied portfolio rather than the same handful of clients every year
A clear route to Audit Client Manager
Proper support behind you, not just a target and a deadline
If you are at the stage where you want more responsibility on the job and a firm that will back you to take it, this is worth a conversation
