Location – Open/National (London/Birmingham/Manchester/Liverpool/Leeds/Bristol)
Position – Permanent
Job Description Summary:
We are seeking managers with experience of local government to join our Grants and Other Assurance national team. Grants Assurance is a specialist team with 30 members across the UK and India. As part of the team, you’ll be managing assignments with public bodies, government departments, national services, commercial organisations and not for profit organisations such as Universities.
Let’s talk about the job:
Here’s a glimpse of what you’ll experience with us:
* Hands-on experience in the different aspects of Grants Assurance, with a variety of clients, from Local Authorities to multinational companies and Government bodies.
* You’ll get experience working on all kinds of assurance assignments that range from a few days to up to five weeks, including examining financial records or carrying out audit procedures.
* Responsibility and the opportunity to take ownership for interesting and challenging client work.
* You’ll develop a strong internal and external network to learn from.
* Working closely with colleagues to provide robust challenge and market-leading insights to help clients meet their regulatory needs and business objectives.
The minimum criteria:
* We are looking for candidates with experience of working with local government and/or who are interested in local government and keen to develop their skills and knowledge.
* Experience of delivering complex Housing Benefit assignments across the last 5 years.
* Ability to work independently, summarise information from a wide range of sources to draw conclusions, and manage client relationships including senior officers.
We envisage that this role would suit an experienced in-charge who aspires to become a Manager.
The Grants and Other Assurance team has a national profile, and therefore we are not tied to candidates from a particular region.
Beyond the job:
The impact you can make here will go far beyond your day job. From secondments to fundraising for local charities, or investing in entrepreneurs in the developing world, you’ll be giving back to society. It’s that drive to do the right thing that runs through our every move, grounded in our firm’s values – purposefully driven, actively curious and candid but kind.
We’re looking for people who want to contribute, spark fresh ideas and go beyond expectations. People who want to be able to proudly do what’s right, for the firm, our clients, our people and themselves. It’s how it should be.
