Audit Manager - Financial Services
London City | Top-30 Firm | Build Your Own Niche
This is a standout opportunity for an Audit Manager with Financial Services experience who wants more influence, faster progression, and the chance to shape something rather than just maintain it.
The firm is a Top-30 practice and has been the fastest organically growing mid-tier firm over several consecutive years. The FS team is a major growth area, covering everything except banking and insurance, with increasing exposure to fintech, crypto, funds, and other specialist FS sectors.
The role
As an Audit Manager, you'll:
-
Manage a portfolio of Financial Services clients end-to-end
-
Lead and develop audit teams, with genuine autonomy
-
Act as a trusted advisor to clients, not just a reviewer
-
Be involved in BD and networking from day one
-
Help shape strategy within FS and grow your own niche team over time
This is a hands-on, visible role with direct partner exposure - you won't be buried under layers of hierarchy.
Progression & opportunity
Progression here is real and well-trodden. The firm promotes on ability and impact, not tenure, and has a clear track record of managers stepping up quickly.
You'll benefit from:
-
A clear path to Senior Manager and beyond
-
Early exposure to high-growth, niche FS areas (including crypto and fintech)
-
The chance to build a profile internally and externally
-
Support to develop your own client and sector niche
What they're looking for
-
ACA / ACCA qualified
-
Current Audit Manager (or strong Assistant Manager ready to step up)
-
Some form of Financial Services audit experience at manager grade
-
Comfortable with client ownership, team leadership, and commercial conversations
-
Ambitious, switched-on, and down-to-earth
The set-up
-
City of London location
-
Hybrid working
-
Top-30 platform without the corporate feel
-
Fast growth, long-term stability, and real influence
If you're an FS Audit Manager who wants visibility, progression, and the freedom to build something meaningful, this is exactly the sort of role that doesn't come up often.
