Audit & Accounts Manager / Progression Opportunity
Northampton c£60K + Flexible Working
Looking for a role where you can genuinely make an impact rather than just manage a portfolio?
An established independent accountancy practice in Northampton is looking to recruit an Audit & Accounts Manager or Assistant Manager as part of its continued growth.There is also the opportunity to progress to become an RI for audit and sign off the audits.
This is a firm where individuals are given visibility, responsibility, and direct access to decision-makers. The role offers a strong mix of audit and accounts work, close client interaction, and the opportunity to play a meaningful part in the development of both clients and the wider team.
For someone currently feeling restricted by hierarchy or siloed responsibilities in a larger environment, this could offer a more rounded and involved position.

Why This Role Stands Out
This opportunity offers more than just portfolio management.
It would suit someone who enjoys working closely with clients, wants variety across audit and accounts, and values being part of a smaller firm where contribution and progression are more visible.
The firm offers a collaborative environment with genuine flexibility and the chance to develop into a more senior position over time.
