A QUICK NOTE BEFORE YOU SCROLL

If you’re a few years into audit, you know the work: you’ve done the fieldwork, tied out the workpapers, and sat through the walkthroughs. The question is what comes next. This role is built for someone who wants to lead fieldwork, take on real client contact, and start building the review skills that lead to supervisor and manager.

A TYPICAL ENGAGEMENT, START TO FINISH

• Planning. Help scope the engagement, assess risk, and build the audit program alongside your supervisor or manager.
• Fieldwork. Lead day-to-day fieldwork on site or remotely. Perform and review testing in areas such as revenue, payroll, fixed assets, and debt, and direct staff accountants on their tasks.
• Review and reporting. Review staff workpapers, clear open items, and help draft financial statements and footnote disclosures.
• Client communication. Serve as the main contact for client accounting teams. Request support, discuss findings, and raise issues early so there are no surprises at wrap-up.
• Wrap-up. Finalize files, track budget versus actual, and take part in post-engagement debriefs.
