Audit Manager - Mixed Portfolio
£60-70,000 per annum
35 hr/week (full-time or part-time considered)
Audit is your thing. So is making a difference.
At Goodman Jones LLP, we understand that audit is more than just compliance—it's about relationships, insights, and impact. That’s why we’re looking for an ambitious Audit Manager to join our team, managing a diverse portfolio that includes both commercial clients and a share of charities and not-for-profits.
Whether it’s helping an international subsidiary get clarity on their numbers, or guiding a charity through SORP compliance, you thrive on variety and value purpose-led work as much as business success.
You may not be unhappy where you are—but maybe you’re craving more autonomy, greater purpose, and the chance to grow your career in a mid-sized firm that still does big work.
What you’ll do:
-
Manage Your Own Portfolio: Lead audit engagements across both corporate businesses and a wide range of NFP/charity clients.
-
Focus on Review (Not Doing): You'll be stepping into a 100% review-focused role. No more hands-on fieldwork—just the high-level stuff.
-
Lead Audits Start to Finish: From planning and execution to final review, ensuring compliance with UK GAAP, IFRS, and where relevant, the Charities SORP.
-
Inspire Your Team: Mentor and develop a close-knit team of auditors, providing guidance, training, and performance feedback.
-
Build Relationships: Serve as the key contact for clients, bringing clarity, confidence, and value to their audit and advisory experience.
-
Contribute to Growth: Support business development across both commercial and charity/NFP areas. Help shape the future of the firm.
What you bring:
-
Experience: You’re currently an Audit Assistant Manager or Manager with a proven track record in managing your own portfolio, leading audits across both commercial clients and UK registered charities.
-
Charity Sector Knowledge: Familiarity with the Charities SORP and charity regulatory requirements is essential.
-
Qualifications: ACA or ACCA qualified.
-
Leadership: You’ve managed audit teams and know how to mentor and motivate.
-
Tech-Savvy: Comfortable with CaseWare, CCH, MS Excel, and Teams.
-
People-first mindset: You care about client relationships and team culture as much as technical delivery.
Even better if you have:
-
Experience working with international groups or UK subsidiaries.
-
A passion for business development or training others.
-
Exposure to complex or grant-funded charity audits.
