Audit Assistant Manager

About the role...

Our Audit team are on the lookout for experienced and talented Audit Assistant Manager’s to come and join the team and push us on to our next phase of growth. You need to have passion for what you do, keen to get stuck in the mix and strive to be the best you.

 

Our award-winning Audit team cover a wide range of clients, including large and complex clients like private equity backed businesses to AIM listed businesses and also SME/Privately owned business.

Whether you have a specialist in either large clients, privately owned businesses or have a mixed portfolio, we have an opportunity waiting for you. 

 

An Audit Assistant Manager needs to be curious, sceptical, and have a questioning mindset. You need to be adaptable and versatile, with the confidence and composure to engage and liaise with clients and team members. As you know, this is no rigid, eyes-down and desk-bound role.

 

It’s hard work… and you love it. You thrive on the client-facing project management, you relish the hands-on leadership, and you take pride in the satisfaction of spotting and resolving issues at the heart of business activity.

You’ll continuously strive to keep learning – whether you’re a trainee or a Partner – and you’ll be brave, stepping out of your comfort zone to tackle new challenges. Above all, be nice. A simple notion, but an irreplaceable part of what makes CP, CP.

 

In addition to those core values, as a Assistant Manager you should;

 

• ACA or ACCA qualified within the last year OR due to qualify
• Proven experience in audit delivery in a practice setting
• Experience working with Big Business, Private Owned Businesses or mixed portfolio
