Are you an experienced audit professional with a strong technical mindset?


Looking to step away from delivery and move into a role focused on methodology, quality, and technical excellence?


One of the UK’s top accountancy practices is growing its Audit Technical & Compliance function and is looking to hire either an Assistant Manager or Manager into the team. The firm has a strong reputation across regulated sectors and capital markets and continues to expand nationally and internationally.


The Role:


This position sits within the Technical & Compliance Division, which supports the audit practice in delivering high-quality work in line with evolving standards, regulation, and internal methodology.
You’ll work alongside a team of senior technical experts and help shape the way the firm trains, guides, and supports its auditors-making a real impact on audit quality.


Responsibilities include:


*Reviewing audit reports (including PIEs) to ensure compliance with ISAs (UK), Companies Act, and Ethical Standards
*Providing technical support and guidance on complex audit queries across the firm
*Developing and updating internal audit methodology, manuals, and working paper templates
*Leading the creation and delivery of technical training, including annual ISA updates and methodology changes
*Drafting technical alerts, thought leadership pieces, and intranet content
*Representing the firm at mid-tier technical groups and audit regulatory forums


What they’re looking for:


*ACA / ACCA qualified, with strong technical knowledge of UK auditing standards, Companies Act, and UK GAAP/IFRS
*Experience in external audit (ideally with regulated clients) or in an audit technical role
*Strong written and verbal communication skills-able to break down complexity into practical advice
*The ability to manage projects and deadlines independently
*Passion for audit quality, methodology, and technical development


Why Apply?


*Join a high-performing, respected technical team with a wide remit and firm-wide influence
*Enjoy hybrid working, flexible hours, and a culture that values deep thinking over box-ticking
*Work in a firm with real international connectivity and exposure to listed and complex clients
*Build your long-term career in audit technical, quality, methodology or risk


If you’re currently in audit delivery but love the technical side-or already in a technical team and ready for a bigger challenge-this could be a smart next step.
