Audit Senior

Audit Senior | Northampton | £42,000 – £52,000 | Permanent, Full-Time

An established, people-first practice in the Northampton area is looking for a qualified Audit Senior who wants to lead their own jobs and be properly involved in the way the audit function develops. You will report into the Audit Manager and Directors, with day-to-day ownership of a mixed portfolio.

The work is varied: owner-managed businesses, charities and some larger, more complex clients, so you will keep building technical range rather than repeating the same file. You will also coach and review the juniors, which is a natural stepping stone towards Manager.

If you are ready to take the next step with a team that values your input and invests in your progression, this is a seat worth a conversation.

What you'll be doing
- Running audits from planning through to completion and sign-off
- Reviewing junior work and coaching trainees through their exams and fieldwork
- Acting as the key contact for your clients, explaining findings in plain English
- Assessing risk and testing controls, then recommending practical improvements
- Drafting financial statements and audit reports under FRS 102 and ISAs

What you'll bring
- ACA, ACCA or equivalent qualification
- Solid audit experience in UK practice, including leading small teams on site
- Good working knowledge of ISAs (UK) and FRS 102
- Comfortable with audit software and Excel, with a sharp eye for detail
- A confident, approachable style with clients and colleagues

What's on offer
- Salary of £42,000 – £52,000 depending on experience
- Hybrid working and flexible hours
- Generous holiday and pension
- Study support and a clear path to Manager
