Job Details

We are a rapidly growing and ambitious assurance practice of 6 partners supported by a 60 strong team situated in St Paul’s in the City of London. We work with a wide range of privately owned businesses across a variety of sectors including financial services, real estate, retail, manufacturing, professional practices and technology and media. Our clients vary from entrepreneurial start-ups to large international groups with several of our larger clients having turnover and/or assets of more than £200m. We do not currently audit any listed companies.

The Assurance Team is dedicated to delivering exceptional service and is committed to providing all our people with regular and valuable training to support their development. Our low staff turnover rate is testament to the culture of the team and the firm, and of our approach to providing people with the opportunities to progress their careers. As a true meritocracy, we have an excellent track record of promoting to manager and partner levels within the firm.

We are looking for a Senior Audit Associate to provide exceptional services to our clients and add value to our team and the firm. You will be assisting the manager with delivering audit assignments to continue to build the firm’s reputation across various sectors.

Key aspects of the role include:

  • Carry out the planning, fieldwork and completion of the audit (statutory and CASS audits) in accordance with auditing standards and the firm’s own approach and methodology.
  • Prepare accounts, including consolidated accounts, using CaseWare under UK GAAP or IFRS.
  • Supervise the audit assignment and develop strong relationships with the client, with expectation that you will resolve audit issues prior to manager review, review junior work and provide feedback.
  • Communicate complex or contentious issues with the manager and partner, using judgement to identify when matters are required to be escalated.
  • Run training sessions for junior members of the team throughout the year and provide the manager team with innovative adaptations to audit methodologies to improve efficiencies.

You are the right person for the role if you:

  • Are ACA qualified
  • Have strong audit bias with experience of UK GAAP and IFRS
  • Have experience of working on group audits and liaising with group and/or component auditors
  • Have experience leading an audit team of two or more people

Company

With over 100 years of history and over 500 employees, we are a professional services firm helping clients with a variety of needs; from accounting and audit, expat and UK tax advice, HR support and business, to financial planning. Our clients range from individuals and charities to SMEs and large corporates. Most of our employees work co-operatively in specialist teams in one main London office, tailor-making solutions for our clients. We also have a dedicated expatriate tax services office in Hong Kong and are part of PrimeGlobal, one of the largest accounting associations in the world.

At Buzzacott, our culture is built on a foundation of trust - everyone is respected, supported, and encouraged to be themselves. Our team members are treated fairly and have equal access to opportunities to enable them to thrive individually and contribute to the firm’s success. As part of our People First strategy which encompasses our Equality, Diversity, and Inclusion initiatives, we are pleased to be recognised as an ‘Inclusive Employer’. Inclusive Employers are the first and leading membership organisation for employers who are committed to prioritising inclusion and creating truly inclusive workplaces. From providing our team members quiet spaces for prayers to educational lunches and events to celebrate all walks of life, we strive to create a comfortable workplace where all our people have a sense of belonging.

At Buzzacott we are trusted for the experience we have, the specialisms we understand, the relationships we build and the values we live by. We define ourselves by the needs of our clients, large and small and work hard to build and maintain relationships that are personal, collaborative and enduring – to be a partner you can trust. We are big enough to display deep knowledge over a broad range of specialisms, and small enough to understand the power of personal connections, and that’s what sets us apart from our competitors, and, we believe, is an excellent platform to create an interesting and exciting career.
