Are you a qualified accountant passionate about audit, business, and people? Do you have a curious mindset and a positive attitude? If so, we have an exciting opportunity for you!

A well-established firm operating within the Top 30 accountancy practices is seeking an Audit Senior to join their growing Audit and Corporate team. Known for their fantastic work environment, modern technology, and commitment to employee development, this firm offers a unique opportunity to work with a diverse and impressive client base.

The role is based in Sussex, with the flexibility to work from either the Horsham or Chichester office. They also offer a hybrid working model, with three days in the office and two days from home.

Client Exposure

You’ll work with clients across Sussex, Kent, and London, spanning various industries, including not-for-profit organizations. This diverse portfolio ensures excellent exposure to different sectors and challenges.

Responsibilities

As an Audit Senior, your primary responsibilities will include:

  • Leading audit teams and managing assignments from planning to completion.
  • Supervising, mentoring, and reviewing the work of Audit Juniors.
  • Collaborating closely with managers and partners to ensure compliance with technical standards.
  • Preparing accounts and corporate tax returns.
  • Running assignments efficiently, both in terms of cost and time.
  • Liaising with clients, HMRC, and partners during engagements.
  • Ensuring audit procedures comply with regulatory and firm standards.
  • Drafting corporation and income tax computations.

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.
