Business Services & Outsourcing Senior Manager

We’re on the hunt for a dynamic Senior Manager to join our growing BS&O Mid-Market team . This isn’t your average accounting role, you’ll be at the forefront of shaping our go‑to‑market strategy, delivering high‑impact work, and helping fast‑growing businesses thrive.

About The Role

You’ll lead the charge in expanding our Accounts and Financial Reporting (AFR) offering, working with a diverse portfolio of clients and collaborating across our UK offices. If you’re passionate about technical excellence, client relationships, and building something brilliant, this is your moment.

Day‑to‑Day Responsibilities

  • Identify and convert opportunities to sell work to new and existing clients.
  • Lead the delivery of AFR work for a portfolio of audited clients (both CP and external audits), supported by Managers and Assistant Managers.
  • Act as the central point of contact for internal referrals, allocating work and driving growth through your internal network.
  • Work with a variety of clients including PE / VC‑backed scale‑ups, UK subsidiaries of overseas groups, complex private companies, and large UK corporates.
  • Complete technical reviews of FRS 102, FRS 101, and consolidated IFRS statutory accounts.
  • Support the BS&O team with technical queries, research complex areas, and coach the team to ensure CP policy is followed.
  • Oversee value‑add technical projects like FRS 102 to IFRS conversions, long‑term contract accounting, share‑based payments, and group reconstructions.
  • Support the non‑audited statutory accounts process as part of the management team.

About You

  • Be ACA qualified (or equivalent).
  • You’re passionate about “getting stuff done” with strong project management and communication skills.
  • You are a team player who brings a “play all in” spirit to everything you do.
  • You are curious, driven, and always looking for ways to improve and innovate.
  • You are confident working with complex clients and technical challenges, and excited to help others grow.
  • About Us

    We’ve been dubbed ‘the rebels of accountancy’. We’re straight‑talking, never afraid to share our opinions, and we put people and relationships before products and services, delivering a streamlined, client‑focused service – free from unnecessary red tape.

    Recent Achievements

  • Best Company’s No. 1 Accountancy Firm & No. 30 Best Large Company to Work For in the UK
  • Became B Corp Certified in 2023 and are still the UK’s largest accountancy B Corp, measuring and improving our impact beyond business for a brighter tomorrow

  • What’s in it for you?

    Our people are the beating heart of our culture. We know that if you love working here, and you’re given the trust and autonomy to work in a way that best suits you, you’ll produce amazing results.

    We Offer

  • A flexible approach to work – balancing working from home, in office or with clients
  • A generous holiday entitlement
  • An enhanced parental leave policy
  • An enhanced pension scheme
  • No dress code – just “wear something!”
  • A multi‑award‑winning wellbeing offering to support your physical, mental, spiritual, and financial health
  • Volunteering opportunities to work closer with local communities and charities
