Ready to Take the Next Step in Your Audit Career?

Are you currently an Audit Senior, Assistant Manager, or Audit Manager looking for a fresh challenge? Do you want to join a growing, ambitious practice where your development is genuinely supported and where a future Responsible Individual (RI) pathway could be within reach?

We're looking for an experienced and motivated Audit Manager to join our Colchester office. This is an exciting opportunity for someone who enjoys leading audits, developing client relationships, and taking on increasing responsibility within a supportive and forward-thinking firm.

The Role

This is a predominantly audit-focused position, with approximately 70-80% of your time spent on audit work. You'll manage a varied portfolio of clients across a range of sectors, while also supporting with accounts preparation and some corporate and personal tax work.

Key Responsibilities Include

  • Managing and leading audit assignments from planning through to completion
  • Reviewing work completed by junior team members and providing coaching and support
  • Building and maintaining strong client relationships
  • Attending and leading client meetings
  • Supporting partners and directors with portfolio management and practice development
  • Preparing and reviewing statutory accounts
  • Assisting with tax compliance work where required
  • Identifying opportunities to improve client service and add value
  • Contributing to the training and development of the wider team

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.
