Audit & Accounts Semi-Senior
Manchester | £30,000 - £38,000 + Study Support + Flexible Working
If you're an Audit & Accounts Semi-Senior looking for a firm that genuinely invests in your development while offering an excellent work-life balance, this could be the opportunity you've been waiting for.
I'm working with a well-established and highly respected accountancy practice that has built an outstanding reputation for supporting its people as much as its clients. Thanks to continued growth, they're looking to appoint an Audit & Accounts Semi-Senior to join their friendly and collaborative team in Manchester.
This is an ideal opportunity for someone with practice experience who enjoys a varied workload across both audit and accounts. You'll work with an impressive portfolio of owner-managed businesses across a range of sectors, giving you exposure to interesting clients while continuing to develop your technical skills. Whether you're studying AAT and looking to progress onto ACCA, or you're already working towards your qualification, you'll receive excellent study support and mentoring throughout your career.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
