Audit Quality & Transactions Senior Manager
TPF Recruitment is delighted to be working exclusively with a highly successful and expanding firm of Chartered Accountants in Fareham, who are looking to recruit an Audit Quality & Transactions Senior Manager.
This is a rare opportunity for an experienced audit professional to move into a strategic, business-critical position that combines technical audit expertise with acquisition support, quality assurance, and firm-wide improvement initiatives.
The role offers exposure far beyond a traditional audit management position. You'll work closely with senior leadership, supporting the growth of the business through acquisitions while helping to enhance audit quality, consistency, and compliance across multiple offices. The position is predominantly internally facing, allowing you to focus on adding value to the firm's audit function without the pressures of managing a client portfolio.
The Role
As Audit Quality & Transactions Senior Manager, you will play a central role in supporting the firm's growth strategy and maintaining the highest standards of audit quality throughout the organization.
Your responsibilities will include:
Audit Quality & Compliance
- Undertaking audit file reviews and quality assessments across the firm's audit teams.
- Identifying areas for improvement and helping to implement best practice procedures.
- Supporting Responsible Individuals, Partners, and audit teams with technical audit and compliance matters.
- Monitoring developments in auditing standards and financial reporting requirements, ensuring these are effectively embedded within the business.
- Contributing to the development of audit methodology, templates, policies, and internal guidance.
