A glimpse into the audit & business advisory associate role

As auditors, we help build the confidence and trust that businesses and society need to thrive. If you’d like to get under the skin of a variety of organisations, this is the place to be. It’s important that we put what is right first. To do this you will need to have the confidence to push ideas harder and ask difficult questions, giving our clients assurance they can rely on.

As an Audit & Business Advisory Associate you will be involved in audits both on-site and remote, as well as preparing financial statements for a range of entities. This is a client-facing role where no two days are the same, allowing you to gain a wealth of experience. Our client base covers sectors such as media, financial markets, manufacturing, retail and lots more.
