Senior Manager, Technical Accounting and Financial Instruments

Connect to your Industry

As a Senior Manager, you will be at the forefront of complex accounting advisory for corporate clients. You will lead high-profile engagements involving financial instruments and wider technical accounting, shape trusted relationships with senior stakeholders, and help grow an ambitious non-audit business.

Your work may range from IFRS 9, IFRS 7, FRS 102 and US GAAP advice to new standards implementation, major refinancing and restructuring programmes, and the accounting implications of evolving treasury strategies. You will connect technical excellence with commercial judgement and use innovation-including responsible AI-to rethink how advice is developed, delivered and embedded.

Connect to your business - Audit & Assurance

We know it's not just about the numbers. Often, we let the technology take care of those. It's about the creative and collective thinking or our people. That's where the true insight is found. We're redefining the future of audit. Come join us.

Assurance

Businesses need to be resilient and transparent in their reporting to build trust and confidence. Assurance practitioners play a key role in achieving this through independent review and challenge of management's views on a range of regulatory and reporting requirements, whether financial, operational or compliance in nature.

Personal independence

Regulation and controls are standard practice in our industry and Deloitte is no exception. These controls provide important legal protection for both you and the firm. We are subject to a number of audit regulations, one of which requires that certain colleagues abide by specific personal independence constraints (e.g., in relation to any financial interests and employment relationships). This can mean that you and your "Immediate Family Members" are not permitted to hold certain financial interests (shares, funds, bonds etc.) with audit clients of the firm, and also prohibitions on certain employment relationships (e.g., you are not permitted to hold a secondary employment role with SEC audit clients of the firm whilst being employed by the firm). The recruitment team will provide further detail as you progress through the recruitment process or you can contact the Independence team upon request.
