London Permanent Top 15 Accountancy Firm

Your new company
A leading UK accountancy and advisory firm is recruiting a Financial Reporting Technical Manager to join its expanding Technical & Compliance function based in London.
This role is well suited to a technically strong, qualified accountant looking to step into a firm-wide advisory and financial reporting role, supporting partners and client-facing teams on complex accounting and corporate reporting matters.
Your new role
You will join an established technical team that plays a central role in supporting quality, consistency and regulatory compliance across the firm. The position offers broad exposure to technically complex clients, senior stakeholders and evolving reporting requirements, away from day-to-day chargeable audit work.
This is an excellent opportunity for candidates seeking a long-term technical career path within a progressive, quality-led practice environment.
Key responsibilities:

  • Reviewing annual reports and financial statements to ensure compliance with IFRS, UK GAAP, company law and regulatory requirements
  • Researching, drafting and responding to technical accounting and corporate reporting queries
  • Providing technical advice and support to partners and staff on complex or judgemental accounting matters
  • Developing and issuing internal technical guidance, accounting updates and thought leadership pieces
  • Supporting the creation and delivery of financial reporting training materials
  • Maintaining technical templates, guidance notes and Intranet resources

What you'll need to succeed
You will ideally be:
  • ACA or ACCA qualified (or equivalent)
  • Currently working in audit, financial reporting or a technical accounting role within practice
  • Technically confident across IFRS and UK GAAP
  • Strong in research, written communication and technical judgement
  • Comfortable liaising with senior stakeholders and influencing best practice
This role would suit:
  • An Audit Assistant Manager looking to move into a specialist technical role
  • A Manager seeking a firm-wide, non-chargeable technical position
Exposure to complex entities, listed clients or PIE environments would be advantageous, but not essential.
What you'll get in return
  • A specialist technical role within a respected mid-to-top-tier firm
  • Clear progression at Assistant Manager or Manager level
  • Broad exposure to complex financial reporting issues
  • Strong investment in training and long-term career development
  • Competitive salary and benefits package
