Salary: £32,000 – £40,000 (depending on experience and qualifications)

About the Role

We’re representing a well-established and highly regarded accountancy practice based in Liverpool, known for its strong audit capability and supportive, people-focused culture. Due to continued growth, they are seeking an Audit Senior / Supervisor to join their Audit & Accounts team. This is an excellent opportunity to work with a diverse client portfolio while progressing your career within a firm that genuinely values teamwork, quality, and work/life balance.

Key Responsibilities

  • Lead and oversee audit assignments from planning through to completion, reporting to Managers and Partners

  • Act as on-site senior, managing audit fieldwork including compliance and substantive testing

  • Supervise, delegate to, and review the work of semi-senior and junior team members

  • Prepare accurate draft statutory accounts with minimal review points

  • Produce high-quality, paperless audit files in line with firm standards

  • Liaise directly with clients, agreeing audit adjustments and disclosure requirements

  • Manage audit assignments to agreed budgets and timelines

  • Identify and resolve technical issues, escalating where appropriate

  • Keep senior management informed of audit progress and key issues

  • Assist with ad hoc and specialist assignments as required

Ideal Candidate Profile

  • ACA / ACCA qualified, part-qualified, or finalist

  • Strong experience delivering audits from planning to completion

  • Up-to-date knowledge of UK accounting and auditing standards

  • Experience preparing statutory accounts for limited companies, groups, LLPs, partnerships and charities

  • Confident communicator with the ability to build long-term client relationships

  • Strong organisational and time management skills with the ability to meet deadlines

  • High levels of attention to detail and technical competence

  • Proactive, driven, and keen to progress within a growing firm

  • Working knowledge of IRIS, Microsoft Office and cloud accounting software is beneficial but not essential

Why This Opportunity Stands Out

  • Competitive salary of £32,000 – £40,000 depending on experience

  • Exposure to a broad and interesting audit client portfolio

  • Supportive, collaborative firm culture with a strong emphasis on work/life balance

  • Clear progression opportunities within audit and accounts

  • Opportunity to lead audits and develop junior staff

  • Varied and engaging workload beyond standard audit assignments
