Are you an Audit Manager, looking for an accounting firm that offers a wide variety of work, an enshrined work/life balance, and progression? Our client specializes in working with medium-sized international companies, whose UK components need more than just annual audit services. The firm offers a variety of outsourced management accounting services to these international companies, but they're in need of appointing a Manager who can 'own' the audit service line. You'll work directly with the managing partner to oversee the audits of the largest clients. These are large, privately held international companies with a presence in the UK. As the 'owner' of the audit service line, you'll be positioned to quickly progress to SM, Director, and Partner in the future. Do you need flexible working? Well, the firm has embraced flexible working for over 15 years. To them, flexibility is a core trait, not an unwanted hangover from COVID. They have core hours (10 am - 4 pm, with a two-hour lunch), and it's up to you when you work around this. Need to pick up the kids from school, or go to a doctor's appointment? There's no need to ask a 'boss' for permission or log the time - you're all adults, so do what you need to do, and work when suits you best. Work from home is encouraged, with most people coming in 2 days a week. The only flexibility we ask from you is to be able to attend client meetings at the client's requested day/time. Otherwise, your diary is your own. We love the team dynamic and friendly nature of this firm. Having previously recruited for them (with 100% retention to date), we've heard firsthand how they look after their staff. We'd love to hear from you if you're; - a qualified accountant, with experience working at a large accounting firm (either currently or in the past) - have experience or interest in working with international companies, helping them navigate the challenges of UK accounting - Fluent in English to a working level If you're interested in hearing more, please apply or call Adam Nelson at Hanami International at
