Accounts & Audit Semi-Senior - Public Practice
Accounts & Audit Semi-Senior – Accountancy Practice
The nature of recruiting for a Semi-Senior with both accounts and audit experience provides complexity due to the hybrid nature of the role and the mid-level bottleneck of candidate supply throughout the practice market.
At this level, it is becoming increasingly common for candidates to be tied into study support contracts and owe fees back should they move on. As well as that, the vast level of exposure and experience can vary between candidates, creating an uncertainty as to the perceived level of candidates against the existing workforce.
Addington Ball were able to identify local practice professionals with exposure to both accounts and audit. We successfully found a studier from a smaller, locally sized firm that was keen to gain exposure to larger clients and also access a tailored study plan.
