Audit Director (London) with GP Certificate - £100k to £120k Director - Accounting & Business Advisory (City of London) - £100k - £120k A rare senior leadership opportunity for an accomplished practice professional ready to step into a true directorial role. About the Opportunity We are partnering with a well-established, highly reputable Chartered Accountancy firm based in the City of London to appoint an experienced Director to join their expanding Accounting & Business Advisory division. This is a strategic, client-facing leadership role - not a pure audit appointment - ideal for a senior professional who thrives on shaping client relationships, providing high-level advisory, and influencing firmwide direction. You will join a respected practice known for its technical excellence, high-touch client service, and collaborative culture. What You'll Be Doing As a Director, you'll play a central role in the continued growth and evolution of the firm. Your remit will include: Taking full directorial responsibility across both the firm and your client portfolio, providing strategic leadership and oversight of accounting services. Managing and developing your own portfolio, ensuring high-quality financial reporting, compliance, and commercial advisory support. Acting as a trusted advisor to business owners, boards, and senior stakeholders across a diverse mix of SME's, OMB's and professional services clients. Strengthening and deepening client relationships, acting as their primary point of contact for all accounting and business advisory matters. Mentoring, coaching, and developing rising talent within the accounting team, helping shape the next generation of future leaders. Contributing to firm-level strategy, including planning, governance, business development, and operational improvement. Ensuring best-in-class compliance with UK GAAP, regulatory requirements, and internal quality standards. What You'll Bring To succeed in this role, you'll be a confident leader with strong practice experience and the credibility to operate at directorial level. You'll ideally bring: ACA / ACCA qualification with 7+ years post-qualified experience within practice. A current General Practising Certificate (GPC). Proven experience managing a broad client portfolio and delivering high-quality advisory. Strong technical expertise across UK GAAP, accounting standards, and business/tax fundamentals. A commercial and strategic mindset, with the ability to guide clients on the bigger picture. Natural people leadership skills and a passion for developing high-performing teams. Excellent communication and relationship-building abilities. A fee-following is advantageous but not essential. Why This Role Stands Out This is an exceptional opportunity for someone seeking: A genuine directorship within a respected London practice. A strong, competitive remuneration package. A role with real influence over firm strategy, culture, and growth. A supportive and professional leadership team. Access to a diverse and interesting client base - with plenty of scope to shape and scale your portfolio. Long-term progression potential and the chance to make a visible impact. How to Apply If you're an experienced practice professional looking for a leadership role where you can truly make your mark, I'd love to hear from you.
