• Contribute to engagements involving frameworks and requirements such as the EU Taxonomy and CSRD, where relevant.
• Support projects involving carbon accounting and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions where required.
• Work across a range of industries, including consumer businesses, banking, insurance, financial services, agri-food, manufacturing and technology.

What We’re Looking For

• ACA-qualified accountant.
• Previous Assistant Manager experience, or experience as a strong Senior who is ready to progress.
• Experience working directly with clients and coordinating project delivery.
• Strong analytical, organisational and communication skills.
• The ability to manage competing priorities and contribute to high-quality client deliverables.
• A genuine interest in sustainability assurance, reporting and regulatory developments.
• The ability to work collaboratively across different teams and industries.

• Sustainability assurance or sustainability advisory.
• CSRD assurance, reporting readiness or compliance.
• EU Taxonomy technical requirements.
• Carbon accounting and greenhouse gas emissions reporting.
• Sustainability reporting within consumer businesses or financial services.

Why Consider This Opportunity?

• Join a growing sustainability team with a broad client portfolio.
• Gain exposure to both assurance and advisory engagements.
• Develop expertise in sustainability reporting and evolving regulatory requirements.
• Take on client-facing responsibilities and contribute to project delivery.
• Build your career in a developing area of professional services.
