Audit Senior / Audit Semi-Senior Horsham, West Sussex £28,000 £45,000 Study support available If you want audit work with a bit more range to it, this one is worth ten minutes of your time. An established independent firm with offices across Sussex and Surrey is looking to add an Audit Senior or Semi-Senior to its team. They've been going more than forty years, have around thirty staff, and have grown steadily through recommendation rather than acquisition. Most people who join tend to stay. The audit portfolio covers financial services businesses, solicitors, charities and owner managed companies. That mix matters. Financial services and solicitors' audits bring regulatory work you won't get in every firm at this level, and charity work gives you SORP exposure. It's a proper grounding rather than the same three sectors over and over. Because the firm has a strong tax side as well, including a CTA partner, there's real scope to broaden out into tax and advisory if that's where your interest sits.

Audit Senior / Audit Semi-Senior Horsham, West Sussex £28,000 £45,000 Study support available If you want audit work with a bit more range to it, this one is worth ten minutes of your time. An established independent firm with offices across Sussex and Surrey is looking to add an Audit Senior or Semi-Senior to its team. They've been going more than forty years, have around thirty staff, and have grown steadily through recommendation rather than acquisition. Most people who join tend to stay. The audit portfolio covers financial services businesses, solicitors, charities and owner managed companies. That mix matters. Financial services and solicitors' audits bring regulatory work you won't get in every firm at this level, and charity work gives you SORP exposure. It's a proper grounding rather than the same three sectors over and over. Because the firm has a strong tax side as well, including a CTA partner, there's real scope to broaden out into tax and advisory if that's where your interest sits.
