The Position

Auditors have the responsibility of determining how honest and accurate a business’s financial records are while also suggesting ways to reduce cost, enhance revenue and increase profits. As an Audit Associate with Forvis Mazars, you will gain a wide range of experience across a wide variety of clients including privately owned businesses, large corporates, and multinational organisations.

Forvis Mazars Audit & Assurance teams are split into specific areas; Public Interest Entities (PIE), Privately Owned Business (POB) and Financial Services (FS). Each area offers graduates the opportunity to pursue either ACA or ACCA professional qualification.

From the outset, you will experience auditing some of the lower risk audit areas and as you progress you will become responsible for the most complex and high-risk sections on an audit file and be pivotal to managing our client relationships and service delivery. The level of your responsibilities will be driven by your capability, your on-the-job performance and your motivation to succeed.

We’re looking for bright, motivated individuals from a wide range of backgrounds - whether that’s engineering, business, law, science, or a related field. What matters most is your eagerness to learn, collaborate, and apply your skills effectively. We’ll equip you with the technical and business know-how you need - but your energy, curiosity, and attitude are what will set you apart.
