Audit Manager - Leatherhead - up to £70,000 - Must Love Spreadsheets and a Good Challenge!
Tired of the same old audits, cookie-cutter clients, and endless ticking and tying in corporate beige offices?
Looking for a role that gives you variety, autonomy, and just the right amount of chaos (the good kind)?
You're in the right place.
On the lookout for an Audit Manager Extraordinaire, someone who knows their GAAP's from their IFRS's, speaks fluent Excel and genuinely enjoys untangling the financial spaghetti that clients never thought needed untangling.
This is not your average "sign here, tick box, move on" audit gig.
You shall be working on clients that range from innovative tech firms and luxury retailers to high-speed motorsport companies and eccentric art collectors.
About our client
They are a mid-tier accountancy and tax firm with a pedigree that stretches back almost a hundred years. Classic enough for credibility, modern enough to know that people like having lives outside work.
Across their audit team, they handle everything from bread-and-butter SME audits to "please-bring-snacks-this-is-going-to-be-a-long-one" group engagements.
You shall also occasionally dabble in the exciting stuff: valuations, due diligence, forensic reviews, complex consolidations-even financial statement prep for the Big Four.
What You'll Be Doing (Besides Making Spreadsheets Cry)
As an Audit Manager, you're the quarterback. The calm in the chaos. The shepherd of junior auditors. The confident presence who walks into a boardroom and calmly explains what "going concern" actually means without putting everyone to sleep.
Day-to-day, you'll be:
* Running audits from planning to opinion with clients who actually value your input
* Getting real facetime with business owners and directors (not just their voicemail or legal teams)
* Managing a client portfolio, teams, mentoring up-and-comers, training and appraising staff
* Advising clients on accounting issues, commercial decisions, and how not to send their year-end files as 57 separate PDF's
* Getting involved with special projects like valuations, due diligence, and the occasional financial fire drill
* Working alongside Partners and feeling like you're actually making strategic decisions, not just pushing paper
* Improving processes and making the audit machine run better, faster, and ideally with fewer formatting disasters!
You'll Excel At This Role If You...
* Have excellent technical audit skills and aren't afraid of a chunky group consolidation
* Know your UK GAAP, FRS 102 and IFRS inside out
* Have handled a variety of audits and maybe even danced with some accounts prep or advisory work
* Can juggle competing priorities without spontaneously combusting
* Believe mentoring junior staff is a noble, fulfilling mission (and appreciate a good GIF)
* Have a pragmatic, solutions-focused brain and a knack for asking: "What are we really trying to solve here?"
* Have a sense of humor or at least the ability to smile when getting version 12 of a trial balance at 5:17 p.m.
Why join this firm?
Aside from the obvious (cool clients, great team, and a role that will never bore you), you will love the culture they've built over the years. They value people, not just as productivity units, but as actual humans. That means flexible working, real career growth, and leadership that believes life exists beyond the audit room!
You won't be a cog in a corporate machine. You'll be a key player in a collaborative team that punches above its weight and values its people even more than it values clean, reconciled journals!
If you've got the skills, the ambition, and a healthy appreciation for variety and financial puzzles, then don't be shy and throw your hat into the ring - but make sure it contains your CV!
Apply now, but maybe double-check your formatting first. They are still auditors, after all.
