Marks Sattin are delighted to be supporting a Regional firm of Chartered Accountants as they continue to grow their Audit team.

They're looking to appoint an ambitious Audit Manager who wants more than just a technical role.

This is an opportunity to join a 23-person Audit team, working closely with the Partner and Head of Audit, in a role where you'll have genuine ownership, client exposure and responsibility.

You'll manage a portfolio of predominantly owner-managed businesses, typically with turnover between £15m and £50m, with audit fees ranging from £20k-£100k.

You'll take responsibility for a portfolio of around £500k, but this isn't a role where you'll simply manage from a distance.

People management is particularly important. You'll play a key role in developing the team, managing performance and helping shape the next stage of the Audit function as the business goes through its restructure.

They're looking for someone who:

  • Is an experienced Audit Manager, or a strong Assistant Manager ready to step up

  • Has a solid audit background and strong technical grounding

  • Enjoys working with owner-managed and entrepreneurial businesses

  • Is confident managing client relationships and senior stakeholders

  • Has genuine experience of managing and developing people

  • Wants to be visible, hands-on and commercially involved


What's on offer?


£65,000 salary
10% bonus
Genuine opportunity to influence and progress through a period of change
Significant client and stakeholder exposure
A varied portfolio of interesting owner-managed businesses

If you're an Audit Manager who enjoys people, clients and being close to the action, this could be an excellent opportunity to join AMS Group at an exciting point in their development.
