There’s More to Your Career Than Audit Files and Sign-Off Loops

You didn’t qualify as an ACA/ICAS/Chartered Accountant to spend years waiting for exposure.

You didn’t qualify to wait your turn.

You qualified to understand businesses, influence decisions, and be close to the action — not stuck several layers away from it.

And yet, in many firms, that’s exactly where talented people end up:
Doing technically solid work
But waiting years for real exposure
Progressing because of time served, not impact

If you’ve started to feel that frustration, you’re not alone — and this role exists because of it.

A Different Kind of Transaction Services Environment

This opportunity sits within a high-growth, entrepreneurial advisory business that was deliberately built to challenge the traditional model.

Fewer layers.
Less bureaucracy.
More trust.

This is a place where capable people are given responsibility early, not protected from it.

Transaction Services here isn’t a production line. It’s a platform — designed for ambitious individuals who want to accelerate their careers rather than queue for permission.

Why People Choose Environments Like This

People move here because they want:

Faster exposure to live transactions
Direct access to senior decision-makers
Ownership rather than observation
A say in the work they do and the direction they take
Progression based on contribution, not tenure

It’s particularly compelling if you’re:

Working in Audit and ready to move into Transaction Services
Already in TS but feeling constrained by red tape
In another advisory service line and keen to get closer to deals

What You’ll Be Doing

You’ll support buy-side and sell-side transactions across a wide range of clients and deal sizes.

From early on, you’ll be:

Analysing financial performance and value drivers
Supporting due diligence on live transactions
Working closely with senior stakeholders
Developing commercial insight, not just technical output

This is a role designed to stretch you — with the support to grow, not the limits to slow you down.

The Reward (Because It Matters)

Alongside accelerated development, the package reflects the value you bring:

Highly competitive base salary
Large double-digit bonus
Clear, fast-tracked progression paths
Genuine transparency around career development

This is not a “wait and see” environment. Progress is earned — and recognised.

Who This Will Suit

You’ll be a qualified accountant (ACA / CA / ACCA / ICAS) with experience in:

Audit / Tax
Transaction Services
Restructuring or another advisory service line

More importantly, you’ll bring:

Commercial curiosity
Drive and ambition
Confidence to step up quickly
Enthusiasm for an entrepreneurial, fast-moving environment

This Is a Platform — For Your Career to accelerate in the world of Advisory / Transaction Services

If you’re looking for:

Exposure that comes sooner
Progression without unnecessary barriers
A business that’s growing, not standing still
And a career that feels intentional rather than accidental

This could be the move that changes your trajectory.
