Audit Partner
Central Hertfordshire
£160,000-£220,000 + Profit Share + Partnership
An established portfolio. A respected team. The chance to leave your own legacy.
Partnership opportunities don't often come with an established portfolio, an experienced leadership team, and genuine succession planning already in place. This one does.
We're working with a highly regarded national accountancy practice looking to appoint an Audit Partner to take over a significant portfolio following a planned retirement. Rather than spending years building a client base from scratch, you'll inherit an established portfolio worth over £1 million in annual fees, while helping shape the next chapter of an already successful regional office.
The client portfolio is diverse, but one area is particularly important. The firm has built an outstanding reputation advising charities, education providers, and wider not-for-profit organizations alongside entrepreneurial owner-managed businesses. They're looking for someone who enjoys working across both sectors and can bring credibility with trustees, finance directors, business owners, and boards alike.
