Audit & Accounts Senior

Permanent
Northamptonshire

Salary: £40,000–£50,000 depending on experience


Looking for an audit role that offers more than audit alone?

A forward-thinking, award-winning accountancy practice in Northamptonshire is looking for an ambitious Audit & Accounts Senior to join its growing team.

This is a mixed position with a strong audit focus, offering the opportunity to develop your audit experience while continuing to work across accounts preparation and other areas of general practice.

The role would suit someone who enjoys variety, wants greater client responsibility, and is looking for a firm that can support their longer-term progression into management and leadership.


Why This Firm Stands Out

  • You will join a modern, independent accountancy practice that places considerable emphasis on both client service and the development of its people.
  • Alongside technical training, the firm supports career progression through mentoring, structured leadership development, and training in areas such as communication and business skills.
  • For somebody with ambition, there is a genuine opportunity to build a long-term career and gradually take on greater responsibility.

What You’ll Be Doing

  • Taking an active role in audit assignments for a varied portfolio of clients
  • Supporting audit work from the planning stage through to completion
  • Working closely with clients and developing strong professional relationships
  • Preparing and reviewing statutory and management accounts
  • Assisting with personal and corporate tax compliance where required
  • Supporting and guiding junior members of the team
  • Working alongside managers and partners while gradually assuming greater responsibility
  • Contributing to the continued development and growth of the practice

Who We’re Looking For

  • ACA or ACCA qualified, part-qualified, or qualified by experience
  • Relevant audit experience gained within a UK accountancy practice
  • A sound understanding of accounts preparation and general practice work
  • Confident communicating with clients and colleagues
  • Able to organise assignments and work effectively as part of a team
  • Ambitious and keen to progress into a more senior or managerial position
  • Interested in a varied role rather than working exclusively within audit

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.
