Job Description

Audit & Accounts Semi Senior

Newcastle-under-Lyme | £28,000–£33,000

If you’ve got around 2 years in accounts and 1–2 years in audit, and you’re starting to think:

“Am I actually progressing properly here?”

This is worth a look.

This isn’t a firm where audit disappears or where you get stuck doing only accounts. It’s a genuine 50/50 split — and progression to Senior is structured, not vague.

What makes this role different?

• Real audit exposure (not just ticking boxes)
• Proper year-end accounts work under UK GAAP
• Study support and clear development conversations
• Directors who are hands-on and approachable
• Growth that’s steady and planned — not chaotic
• No culture of long hours just for show

You’ll work with a varied portfolio of limited company clients - from growing SMEs to group audits across sectors like manufacturing, IT, retail and charities.

What you’ll actually be doing

Accounts:
– Preparing statutory year-end accounts
– Producing management accounts (journals, accruals, prepayments)
– VAT returns
– Supporting corporation tax computations
– Speaking directly with clients

Audit:
– Preparing audit working papers
– Supporting statutory audits (including group work)
– Identifying risks and controls
– Building confidence working on-site with clients

There’s occasional travel for audits (planned well in advance), but nothing excessive or last-minute.

Who this suits

You’ll likely have:
• Around 2–4 years’ UK practice experience
• A mix of accounts and audit exposure
• Experience with Ltd company clients
• Confidence preparing audit files and accounts
• ACCA or ACA studies underway

Most importantly - you’ll want to step up properly within the next 12–24 months.

This is the kind of firm where Semi Seniors become Seniors because they’re developed, not because someone leaves.

If you’d like to quietly explore what progression could look like for you locally, I’m happy to have a confidential conversation
