Audit Semi-Senior - North London
I'm working with a Top 100 accountancy firm in North London that's built a reputation for doing things properly - high-quality audit work, strong progression, and none of the unnecessary grind that so many people burn out on in larger firms.
This is a genuinely chilled, adult environment. People work hard during working hours, then log off. No theatre, no badge-of-honour late nights, and no pressure to live for the job.
It's not a coincidence that a large number of the team have joined from Big 4 and Top 10 firms - they wanted to escape the constant intensity without giving up on development or the quality of work they're proud of.
The role
* Assisting on audits across a broad and interesting client base
* Exposure to well-run, technically sound audit work
* Increasing responsibility as you develop towards Senior level
* Working closely with Seniors, Managers, and Partners in a supportive team
* Opportunity to get involved in accounts or other areas if that's of interest
Why this firm?
* Top 100 name without the corporate culture
* Strong technical standards and well-structured audits
* Clear progression without burnout
* A calm, friendly team who treat each other like professionals
* Sensible, flexible approach to working hours and hybrid working
About you
* Currently working in Audit within a UK accountancy firm
* Part-qualified ACA or ACCA (or equivalent experience)
* Confident assisting on audits and keen to keep progressing
* Looking for a healthier long-term environment without stepping backwards
What's on offer
* Competitive London salary
* Full ACA / ACCA study support
* Realistic workloads and clear expectations
* Long-term progression in a firm that values balance as much as quality
If you're in Audit and starting to feel worn down by the constant grind, this is the kind of move that makes a real difference.
And if this role isn't quite right, I cover Audit roles across London from Semi-Senior through to Partner - always happy to have a confidential chat.
