Your new company

A leading accountancy firm that has seen considerable recent growth is looking to recruit a high-calibre Audit Senior.

Your new role

Key responsibilities will include:

  • Take responsibility for end-to-end audit engagements, ensuring each stage is delivered to a consistently high standard.
  • Maintain well-structured working papers by compiling and organising all required evidence and documentation.
  • Review financial information from clients to draw conclusions, highlight issues, and suggest practical improvements.
  • Monitor adherence to professional standards, regulatory expectations, and internal risk and quality frameworks.
  • Develop strong client rapport, becoming a reliable point of contact for both long-standing and newly onboarded clients.
  • Understand client objectives and challenges, proposing customised solutions and ensuring they are carried out effectively.
  • Respond to client enquiries in a timely and professional manner to strengthen trust and long-term relationships.
  • Guide less experienced colleagues by offering support, answering queries, and reviewing their work for accuracy.
  • Work closely with colleagues to ensure audit outputs and client deliverables are completed accurately and on schedule.
  • Produce work that meets statutory obligations and aligns with relevant legal requirements.
  • Draft and check client submissions-such as financial statements, tax returns, payroll-related filings, and VAT reports-to ensure they are correct and compliant.

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.
