Audit Director

Audit Director - Gloucester | Top 100 Firm
 
Let's get real for a second.
 
If you're already at the Director level, you don't need a bullet list telling you what an Audit Director does. You live it. You've put in the years, delivered under pressure, mentored teams, kept clients loyal, and made partners look good.
 
Now the question is: what's next?
 
Here's the deal:
 
This Top 100 firm in Gloucester isn't hiring just another number to keep chargeable hours up. They're looking for the future of their Audit leadership - someone who can help shape the next chapter of their firm.
 
They've got a strong, profitable audit portfolio spanning everything from established SMEs and groups to PE-backed businesses and not-for-profits. The pipeline is there. The team is solid. The client base? Sticky.
 
But they need someone commercially sharp who can lead from the front—drive growth, raise the bar on quality, and mentor future leaders. That someone might just be you.
 
What makes this opportunity stand out?
 
Autonomy - This firm isn't smothered in red tape. You'll have the freedom to lead your department your way, with support.
 
Succession-focused - Several Partners are planning future step-backs. That creates a power vacuum—and you'll be in prime position.
 
Local loyalty - These clients aren't just here for compliance. They view this firm as their trusted adviser, which gives you the opportunity to add real value.
 
Team culture - No toxic politics. Just a senior team that gets on, get results, and goes home on time.
 
You'll be a great fit if:

• You're already operating at Director or Senior Manager level in a UK audit firm
• You're RI-qualified or ready to step into that role
• You're confident with OMB/SME audits and enjoy developing client relationships
• You're a natural leader who others want to follow—and someone who can deliver calm under pressure

 
Whether you're blocked where you are, craving a seat at the table, or just curious what else is out there—this is worth a conversation.
