You'll have a genuine interest in our clients. We want to provide a distinctive service and unlock potential for growth in dynamic organisations.
You'll know that what you do matters. As an organisation we want to be known for how we do business, not simply what we do. So, we need people who know that every act matters from the simple things to the insights we bring to clients.
You'll seize opportunities. We want to adapt quickly and wisely to changing conditions to optimise growth for both our clients and ourselves.
You'll apply critical reasoning to bring clarity and insight. We do it by asking great questions, listening and drawing on our collective knowledge and experience to really help others grow.

•You'll have extensive post-qualification experience in audit and you'll be keen to work with a diverse range of Cambridgeshire businesses, across differing industry lines
•You'll have a comprehensive understanding of key reporting standards
•You'll have strong people management skills, enabling you to support, coach and mentor more-junior colleagues
•You'll have a proven track record of effectively leading client engagements.
