About the Role

Are you an experienced Audit Manager who enjoys developing people, building strong client relationships and making a genuine difference, but feels ready for something more?

Perhaps you're looking for a firm where your ideas are welcomed, your experience is valued and your career can continue to progress without getting lost in a large corporate environment. This could be exactly what you've been looking for.

We're recruiting an Audit Manager to join an established, highly respected Top 100 accountancy practice in Banbury. With a strong regional presence, an impressive client portfolio and a genuine commitment to developing its people, this is an opportunity to enjoy the best of both worlds.

You'll have the autonomy to manage your own clients, the opportunity to mentor and develop a talented team, and the support of approachable partners who recognise the value you bring.

More importantly, this Audit Manager opportunity offers the chance to have a real voice in the future of a progressive practice, rather than simply being another cog in the machine.

Role Overview

  • Manage a varied portfolio of corporate clients, becoming their trusted adviser and main point of contact.
  • Lead audit assignments from planning through to completion, ensuring a high-quality client experience.
  • Review audit files, statutory accounts and corporation tax computations.
  • Coach, mentor and develop junior colleagues, helping them build confidence and progress their careers.
  • Work closely with partners on advisory projects, business planning and new opportunities.
  • Help shape efficient working practices and contribute to the continued development of the audit team.

The Ideal Candidate

  • ACA or ACCA qualified, or able to demonstrate equivalent experience.
  • A strong background in audit and accounts within an accountancy practice.
  • Experience leading audits and managing or supervising colleagues.
  • Comfortable building relationships with clients and providing practical, commercially focused advice.
  • Someone who enjoys developing people, sharing ideas and taking ownership.
  • Knowledge of corporate taxation, with experience of charities or academies an added advantage.

What's on Offer

  • £50,000 - £65,000 salary, depending on experience.
  • The opportunity to join a recognised Top 100 accountancy practice.
  • Genuine scope for career progression and professional development.
  • A supportive, collaborative culture where your contribution is valued.
  • Exposure to an interesting and varied portfolio of corporate clients.
  • Direct access to experienced partners and opportunities to influence the wider practice.
  • The backing of an established regional firm with national and international professional connections.

Register your interest by applying today or call Richard Davies or Luke Scale on 01926 290 290 to discuss this opportunity further, always in complete confidence.
