• Applying accounting, financial and analytical skills to various client situations and practice disciplines, such as detailed reviews of financial statements and underlying accounting records and the application of UK GAAP and IFRS.
• Maintaining detailed working paper records of reflecting assumptions, methodologies, and sources of information employed during the performance of all analytical tasks.
• Delivering high quality product within established timeframes.
• Preparing draft written analyses and other reports for third parties, as necessary, on the project scope and/or results of activities.
