Audit Manager

Audit Manager - Bristol | £60K-£70K 
 
You're probably already doing 80% of the Audit Manager job managing clients, reviewing files, fielding team questions, fixing the mess when things go sideways... but without the proper recognition, pay, or support.
 
This firm wants to change that.
 
They're now hiring a new Audit Manager to take full ownership of a mixed corporate audit portfolio —a blend of mid-market, private equity-backed, and fast-growth businesses that demand more than box-ticking.
 
Why This Role?
 
Because it's designed for Managers who want to lead not just deliver.
 
You'll:

• Manage audits end-to-end with real ownership
• Be the direct contact for clients (no Partners hiding in the background)
• Develop and mentor a capable team beneath you
• Have a visible path to Senior Manager and beyond
• Work in an office that's growing, investing, and building for the future 

You won't be stuck managing audit juniors and file reviews forever. You'll be part of building a modern, ambitious audit function — with leadership that actually listens.
 
What's On Offer:

• £60K-£70K base salary
• Full ownership of your portfolio
• Clear development plan (they've promoted multiple SMs in the last 12 months)
• On-site team with actual collaboration — not isolated home-working
• Clients that value commercial input, not just compliance

What You'll Need

• ACA/ACCA qualified
• Strong audit experience in a Top 100 firm
• Experience managing audits from planning to completion
• Confidence managing people and client relationships
• Hunger to progress and take on more

This isn't a "wait your turn" kind of firm.
If you're ready to lead and be recognised for it — this could be your move.
